Tropen Koppel, tropical belt

[cckw-353]

Hello all

I am looking for a tropical belt (Koppel) in sand color (LW). I would need a 115 length. Does anybody know a good sutler who carries those in his portfolio?

thanks a lot
Uwe

LW used regular Heer gear in Africa, so you'll need an olive drab belt. I recommend Richard Underwood, his belts are great.

They had some LW-specific blue-grey webbing gear but that was rare.

Richard does not currently have them in stock (because I'm after a whole load of DAK kit), but he will have in the new year.

Hello all

Thanks for the help, I have a supplier now! ATF does the kaki colored ones thet the LW had. I have ordered two and will post pictures and a short review once they arrive...

cheers

moley,

yes the LW did use Heer webbing, but the LW also used tan/sand colour webbing more often then wearing olive drab.

Interesting...on the pictures I know it is impossible to tell if a belt is LW blue webbing of reed green WH. Do you have any color pictures? Anyway, it's now too late since I placed an order with ATF but it would be interesting never the less.
