How should I measure a belt? Here’s a guide to help you.

A belt you buy from me is measured as above - from the end without the buckle to the middle hole of five.

Remember! You never measure with the buckle, because buckles have different lengths.

If you already have a belt and want to tell me what size you need - you state the cm measurement from the end (the buckle side) to the hole you use most.

If you are still unsure, measure in cm around the waist in the usual way, or at the hips depending on what type of pants you will use the belt with. Women often choose to measure at the waist. Many of my belts are marked in inches or are in full length 44 inches, which I trim and fit to you.

Many have the belt too long - from the hole chosen above I choose about 14 cm out to the tip. The belt has five holes when you buy it - it is measured to the middle hole so you have some room both ways. By the way, the European standard is 35 mm width on dress belts and 38 mm on jeans belts. Americans choose 30 mm and 38 mm.
