How to Choose Your Size

Your belt size is not the same as your trouser or waist size. Your belt will typically need to be 1-2 inches larger than your actual waist measurement to allow for clothing.

• Measure around your waist with your trousers on, at the position you intend to wear the belt
• If you are at the top of a size range, order the next size up so you have usable holes on both sides
• When in doubt, size up - a local cobbler can add an extra hole if needed
