    PS : I joined the Bundeswehr in  January 1962 as Zeit soldat

    we were allowed to use private Leatherbelts as "Unterfuehrer" NCOS, since the forst  Issue Textilbelts (worn in the Trousers) were awful!

    Also Private Boots could be worn & The Company Coppler

    added Heel Irons for a small Fee. In  ~1963 we got the new LeatherKoppel (Belt) what looked similar to the Old Reichswehr Koppel. Some Soldiers came from the BGS Bundesgrenzschutz who perhaps just kept their doubleclaw Belts?
