The foliage is ACU green, and the OD is a classic olive drab. I made a blunder, and now I'm stuck with both. Let me state unequivocally that OD is the way to go.
Because this belt does not have a hook or loop inner lining to mate up with the inner belt, it will still require belt keepers to connect the two belts. If you don't need keepers, this is not the belt for you.
I believe it is because it is waist-adjustable. At 160 pounds and a size 33 waist, I had to adjust it a lot, but it appears to fit a size 50ish woman fine.

Selected User Reviews For BLACKHAWK Enhanced Military 2.25-Inch Web Belt (Modernized)
Buckle fails for the second time! The belt's appearance, width, and strength are all excellent. All the stars aligned on this one: velcro on the inside, price THE BUCKLE, ON THE OTHER HAND, DOES NOT WORK. It will not remain buckled if I simply pull it apart. When I bent over to put on the belt, it popped off. I returned the first one, and I just received the second one a few minutes ago, and it has the same problem. This is for the FOLIAGE GREEN BELT, but the others might work as well. But I'm going to pass. This is the first time I've seen one of Blackhawk's products.
Overall, this is a very good / well-made, easy-to-use pistol belt, and I replaced the plastic buckle with a COBRA pistol belt buckle made entirely of metal. Since then, I've upgraded to a ten-star rating for this belt. This belt is similar to the USGI web belt, but it is more durable. The only difference is that the belt does not have any holes for military attachments, and it is much stiffer and less "floppy" than USGI belts. In addition, unlike the USGI belt, this belt's plastic buckle can be replaced.
As others have stated, this is a large belt, and it's actually marked with an "L" for large, so I'm disappointed that I couldn't choose a smaller size. I'm a LEO, so I wear a black duty belt every day at work. I wanted to stick with the system I was used to, but in desert tan to match my cammies. This belt is the perfect fit for my safariland holster and KYWI magazine pouches. It's stiff and appears to be strong enough for my needs. The only way to find out is to wait. Another commenter gave this belt a low rating because it wouldn't fit through his belt loops. This is an outer belt; I'm not aware of any pants with belt loops large enough for this belt; it was not designed for that purpose.
The belt itself is excellent; it is extremely durable and keeps holsters in place. I recommend this product, but the buckle that came with it is not secure and can be accidentally pulled apart without unlocking the belt; after about 40 minutes on the range, the buckle would not hold and fell off by itself. I ordered replacement buckles for this otherwise excellent belt, so keep that in mind if you're considering purchasing it.
I have a 40 waist, so I think this next size up will fit nicely over my belted BDUs. I'm looking forward to doing some "running and gunnin" to see how well the setup holds up. The double-retention buckle system is one of my favorite features. It simply cannot be unintentionally unintentionally unintentionally unintentionally unintentionally un done. The belt is also very stiff, so it won't sag anytime soon.
Make this belt into a battle belt that can hold shotgun shells. It's simple enough to adjust. The belt is thick, stiff, and durable. The plastic buckle is ineffective and will not hold its position. Even without a load, even the tiniest movement causes the buckle to fail. I'll have to replace it with a sturdier buckle that works, as suggested by a previous reviewer.
This item is extremely durable. It's stiff at first, but I use it to keep the heat in by wrapping it around the outside of my N3B parka at the hips.
Only thing I'll say is that when I bought it, I had a problem with it. I never adjusted the cinturón, and I changed it two times.
