Abstract
The disclosure concerns an inner duty belt and related system. The inner duty belt has an inner side and an outer side, and includes a waist portion having a first touch fastener coupled to the outer side, an attachment portion having a connecting element configured to engage with the waist portion, and a flexible portion disposed between the waist portion and the attachment portion. The flexible portion is configured to fold upon convergence of the waist and attachment portions. The flexible portion of the inner duty belt allows the inner duty belt to easily increase and decrease in circumference while engaged with an outer duty belt.

An inner duty belt comprising:
- a waist portion comprising a waist inner side and a waist outer side opposite the waist inner side, the waist portion further comprising a waist portion thickness measured from the waist inner side to the waist outer side;
- an attachment portion comprising an attachment inner side and an attachment outer side opposite the attachment inner side, the attachment portion further comprising an attachment portion thickness measured from the attachment inner side to the attachment outer side, the attachment portion further comprising a connecting element disposed on the attachment inner side, the connecting element configured to couple to the waist outer side;
- a flexible portion disposed between the waist portion and the attachment portion, the flexible portion comprising a flexible inner side and a flexible outer side, the flexible portion further comprising a flexible portion thickness measured from the flexible inner side to the flexible outer side wherein the waist portion thickness and the attachment portion thickness are each greater than the flexible portion thickness;
- an inner side comprising the waist inner side, the attachment inner side, and the flexible inner side;
- and
- an outer side opposite the inner side, the outer side comprising the waist outer side, the attachment outer side, and the flexible outer side;
- wherein the waist portion further comprises a waist loop fastener disposed on the waist inner side, the waist loop fastener configured to engage with the connecting element thereby causing the attachment portion and the flexible portion to each couple to the waist inner side.
