WW2 German Police Belt and Buckle 100cm

The WW2 German Police Belt and Buckle (100cm) is a period-correct example of equipment issued to German police personnel during the Second World War. The belt is constructed from black leather, measuring approximately 100 centimeters in length, and designed to accommodate standard uniform wear. The accompanying buckle is typically made from stamped aluminum or steel, featuring the distinct police insignia—an oval oak leaf wreath encircling the national eagle and swastika—denoting affiliation with Ordnungspolizei (Order Police). This combination of belt and buckle formed an essential part of the police uniform, used for both practical and ceremonial purposes. The belt was intended to support sidearms, pouches, and other duty equipment required by police officers in wartime Germany. Items of this type are collected for their historical significance and for study of period uniform regulations. Condition, maker marks, and authenticity are important factors in the evaluation of such artifacts.
