Introduction and explanation of the reasons for creating this thread
First of all, I want to say. For now, the most important task for the team is solving crash broblems. I understand this and absolutely support it, the solution to this problem should be in a first place. But I still want to add that with the new update you are currently working on, it would be very helpful to solve one of the most long-standing cosmetic problem, which, after the last update, once again showed its significance, manifested in the reactions of players on the forum and other resources. I believe that this problem deserves a solution for a very long time and especially now and as soon as possible.
I created this thread in this section because I did not find any evidence that forum staff are viewing the section - "Suggestions and Feedback". Earlier I created same thread in the "Suggestions and Feedback" section and in one of my messages I asked any of the employees to let them know if there was any of their activity. After one day, I did not receive any answers, therefore, as planned, I created this thread here, where the activity of employees is significantly different from other sections of the forum. In the hope that this suggestion will be heard.
I want to note that this issue was raised by players many times, at different periods of time, in different threads. And not only on this forum, but also on other resources(reddit and twitter for example). Аfter the new update, you can find a lot of messages about this issue and these messages are found not only in the threads that originally created for this issue, but also in others.
In these threads, in many messages I have detailed my opinion on this situation with the belt. All of these threads were created after the last update. They were added to the collection of many previously created same issue threads. I emphasizing that these are not all messages from players who are not happy with this belt. In other threads, much more can be found.

The problem itself
In this thread I will briefly describe the most main things.
Right now many players are losing the desire to play this game, only because of a non-removable belt. Personally for me, the appearance of my character means a big role in the game. If my character looks ridiculous, it discourages about 50% of the desire to play the game. I don't want to play as a ridiculous looking character with a bulky belt, which destroys the overall style of the many outfits in the game and constantly attracts attention by introducing visual dissatisfaction. This belt is a MAIN and must GLOBAL cosmetic problem for now, in my understanding - critical problem. Because, It affects all clothes in the game and foce the player to a situation where he has to adjust his entire set of clothes to one single element, due to the high bulky and visibility of this element. This issue deserves at least - more attention. And as a maximum - an immediate solution.
Conclusion and my vision of how this problem can be solved
I see only one correct way to solve this problem. Add the function to remove the belt, separately from all other cosmetics. You can make a separate type of clothing - belts. This will also open up the potential for creating new types of belts in the future for players to buy. This is beneficial both from a business point of view and from the point of view of customization problem. Or just add a button to the customization menu - hide the belt.
Making the belt come off with the vest is not an option. There is alot of great vests, that players prefer to use, but without belt. If making the belt removable along with the vest, it will be just as deplorable situation in terms of customization, as the current situation with the belt. It's a treading water option. Fixed one, sacrificing another, equally significant. It must be possible to take off belt separately from any part of the outfit.

It's also worth noting that many of the vests in the game aren't exactly vests. The vest model also includes models of some small pieces of equipment that are attached to a standard belt. Perhaps this explains the reluctance of the developers to add a function to remove the belt. If you remove the belt, you will have to adapt many models of vests for the missing belt so that the equipment that was conceived for being on the belt does not fly in the air, due to the fact that the belt that holds them simply dissapear.
Personally, I do not see anything wrong with these objects flying in the air, they are not very noticeable, in comparison with this bulky belt, which constantly annoys the eyes. Having the opportunity to take off or put on the belt, each player will be able to choose for himself whether he needs it or not.
