German term

Dragoner

German to English Other Textiles / Clothing / Fashion
What is a "Dragoner" at the back of a loden janker jacket called. I have seen the term "dragoon" but not really sure this is correct.

I have decided to put" typical "Dragoner" buttoned half-belt" as I don't really think the word "tab" describes this accurately enough.
Andrea Garfield-Barkworth (asker) Aug 22, 2013:
Yes, that sounds like what I am looking for.

This dictionary supports your half belt idea Half belt
short ornamental belt, positioned in the waistband of the rear part of a coat. May have one or more than one part. Apart from its decorative function, also serves to adjust the garment at the waist. We distinguish between the integrated half belt, which is stitched on or otherwise attached at the waist to the rear part of the coat in its whole circumference, and the free half belt, sewn or strapped against the side seams with non-attached edges in the length.

Rückenspange (f)
Dekorativer kurzer Gürtel, angebracht in der Taille des Hinterteiles eines Mantels. Kann einteilig, aber auch mehrteilig sein. Neben seiner dekorativen Funktion ist er auch für das Zusammenziehen des Bekleidungsstückes in der Taille vorgesehen. Unterschieden wird ein aufgesetzter Gürtel, der auf dem Hinterteil des Mantels in der Taille über den gesamten Umfang aufgenäht oder anderswie befestigt ist, und ein loser Gürtel, der in die Seitennähte mit nicht befestigten Längskanten eingenäht oder angesteckt ist.

This mentions a half-belt which sounds more convincing than back waist tab
