Young Brunette Girl With The Belt Undresses On The Couch With Pillows

• One specialized type of belt is the utility belt or Police duty belt, which includes pockets for carrying items that the wearer needs for prompt use and loops to hang larger items. Police officers, soldiers, and repair personnel are typical roles which use this kind of belt. Duty belts are generally wider than dress belts, and are stiffer to better provide for the carry of heavy items such as pistols. It is common military practice for such a belt to be a symbol of authority or that one is 'on duty.' Such belts are worn even if no equipment is carried on them. A notable fictional example is Batman's utility belt.
• The obi is traditionally part of a Japanese kimono.
• A common sight in fantasy and roleplaying characters is the excessive use of belts in all different sizes on one's person. Usually they are used either for securing clothing and armor, but others just have several belts around the arms, legs, neck, waist, hips, and across the breasts for decoration. Sometimes they are used in place of eyepatches or to decorate weapons. This was also common in superhero costume design of the early 1990s.
• A studded belt is typically made of leather or similar materials, and is decorated with metal studs. Studded belts are often a part of punk, emo/scene, skater, Goth and metal fashion.
