Belt Buckle 44
How can I tell my correct belt size?
Currently I own a belt that says size 38 but for it to fit properly lately,I guess from exercising, I had to put an extra hole in it for the belt buckle to go into. The belt measures 44 inches from the start of the leather to the end of the leather. But the size is 38? How come?
I want to get a new belt but want one that will actually fit properly.
Knowing these numbers, what size belt should I be buying?
Thanks
To find out what size belt you wear, simply follow these guidelines:
1. First, decide whether you will be wearing the belt at your waist or on your hips (lower rise). This will affect the fit of the belt.
2. For waist belts, measure around your natural waistline (just at the belly button). This is usually the smallest part of your torso.
3. For hip belts, measure around the fuller part of your hips (not the fullest), where your low-rise jeans would fall. Note: Hip belts are carried in larger sizes so they can be worn on the hips.
4. The measurement that you get is your belt size (in inches or centimeters). Note: See our size guide above for inch and centimeter equivalencies.
5. The size of a belt indicates the measurement from the buckle prong (or other method of closure) to the middle hole of the belt.
