Belt Size Guide

To find your perfect belt size, measure your waist where you typically wear your trousers or use your trouser size as a guide.

How to Measure

Measure around your waist at the point where you normally wear your belt, or add 2 inches (5cm) to your trouser waist size.

Belt Length Guide

Belt sizes typically refer to the measurement from the buckle to the middle hole. Most belts have 5 holes for adjustment.

Fitting Tips:

  • The belt should fasten at the middle hole for optimal fit and longevity
  • Allow room for fluctuation - you should be able to use the 2nd or 4th hole comfortably
  • For formal belts, choose a size that matches your trouser waist exactly
  • For casual belts, you may prefer a slightly looser fit
