In the 1970's, the French Army designed and issued the F1 olive combat uniform & all its web-gear components. These webbing harnesses were used right through well into the first Gulf War period.

These suspenders are incredibly simple (in-fact, possibly too simple!). The front straps have metal clips that hook onto D-rings that would be found on the top of F1 pouches and the rear straps loop back on themselves with hook & loop. Meaning the rear straps can loop over practically any belt. The down side is this didn't make for a particularly stable webbing system - the price you pay for such a simplistic design! One nice thing is they didn't skimp on materials with a durable cotton canvas build. All for a very low price, the back might end up hurting but the wallet certainly doesn't!
