PLEASE NOTE: FOR BUYERS OUTSIDE THE UK - WE ONLY ACCEPT PAYMENT VIA PAYPAL, PAID IN STERLING GBP
An unissued, unblancoed pair of British Army WW2 DATED WEBBING CROSS STRAPS. Strictly speaking, these are not a "pair", as they are both "female" straps - with the additional loop added to allow the other strap to pass through them, when being worn. This however, doesn't matter, as they can be worn as a pair. Although they were made by the same manufacturer, one is dated 1941, whilst the other is dated 1942. .
These straps were designed for the 1937 pattern webbing, and attach from the buckles on the back of the belt, across the shoulders, to the front, where they would go through the buckles on the waistbelt pouches, or attach to the brace attachments (if the pouches weren't being carried). This pair were made by "H.H.C & Co Ltd", and are stamped with their details. They are 44.5 inches (113cm) in length, which is the smallest size issued by the British Army during WW2 (for soldiers under approximately 5ft 6ins in height).
Straps like these would have been worn by a range of forces, including - the Army, Airborne Forces, Parachute Regiment, Commandos, Special Air Service, Long Range Desert Group, Royal Navy, Royal Marines, Chindits, RAF Regiment, and even the Home Guard.
Unissued, unblancoed. Excellent condition considering age.

TERMS & CONDITIONS OF SALE: A small handling fee is included in our postage/packing and shipping costs. This is done in accordance to the eBay rules on this matter, and covers us for the additional time and expense which we often have to incur. If you buy several items from us at once, please ask for us to repack and issue a new quote. In that instance the handling charge will only be charged once.
NO TIME WASTERS PLEASE – The vast majority of eBay members that we trade with are 100% genuine and committed to following through with their purchases. There are however, some people that seem to live in a complete fantasy dreamworld (thinking they are members of the SAS, Parachute Regiment, VC or Gallantry Medal Winners, VIP’s, Celebrities etc), OR – they just bid on things “For a Laugh” and then string you along with a long list of excuses for non-payment! Please note that we will not tolerate this type of “bidder”, and do NOT want the hassle of trading with them. We believe it's only fair to expect payment within 14 days from the auction's finish, and would encourage buyers to ensure payment by this date. We WILL file a “Non-Paying-Bidder” Alert Form if payment is not received, and we WILL report time-wasters to eBay. If you have any problems with fulfilling this criteria PLEASE DO NOT BID ON OUR AUCTIONS. We are sorry to have to add this to my listing, but we’ve found it necessary - as it seems there are a small proportion of people that come onto eBay with the sole purpose of wanting to ruin things for everyone else. Good luck, and we look forward to trading with you in the near future.
