Italian Carabinieri Belt

I am always on the look out for great euro-service belts to wear with my utilikilt and neo-kilts, and have picked up a few pretty unique ones in my travels. This one is a uniform belt that was worn by the Italian Carabinieri, otherwise known as the Italian Police.

The Carabinieri are Italy's national police that are in charge of policing with both the military and civilian populations. They serve in war zones as "soldiers" and on the street as criminal police.

Here are a few pictures of my belt:



Here are a couple of Italy's finest............ notice the rather dapper belts they're sporting :)
