Police duty belt

A police duty belt is a belt, typically made of nylon or leather used by police, prison and security officers to carry equipment easily in a series of pouches attached to the belt. The equipment that an officer can carry on his belt varies by country, but generally consists of gun, handcuffs, baton, flashlight, pepper spray, taser, gloves or magazines for the gun.

The first police belts began to be used at the beginning of the 20th century.
