Quick size explanation

Our belt sizes are typically given as something like 87-102cm/37" where 87cm is the tightest fitting (measured to first of the holes from tip of belt prong where the belt hole sits when worn - see picture below), 102cm is the loosest fitting (last of the holes) and 37" is approximately the central hole. Never measure the entire length but to the hole you wear the belt on. 87-102cm equates to about 35-40" so as long as where you will wear the belt, with same thickness clothes on, falls into that region, it should fit you. Measurements given may vary by a few cm.

How to measure a belt

Size guide - need inch to cm conversion?
Buying for a gift and can’t measure the person?

If possible, measure a belt they currently wear (checking that it is the same waist or hipster style as the one you wish to buy) - if it is obvious which hole they use through signs of wear.

Picking the right size is really easy

IMPORTANT: Never just measure your naked waist or hips to choose a size. Belts can vary even when they’re supposed to be the same size -  we aim for perfection so measure each belt including the width to ensure it will go through your belt loops. You'll get the most accurate measure with a belt you already own.

What you need

  1. A belt with buckle and hole fastening
  2. Tape measure

What you do

Step 1: Wear something of similar thickness to what you would wear with the new belt.
Step 2: Put on your existing belt in the same way as you would the new belt: eg around the waist or around the hips.
Step 3: Note the hole you are using on the belt.
Step 4: Lay the belt out flat. Measure, in centimeters, the distance from the fastening (the bit that goes through the hole) to the hole you noted.
This gives you your belt size.

If you don’t have a belt that you can use

For a waist belt: Measure around your naked waist and add approx 4-7 cm.
For a trousers/jeans belt (to sit just beneath the belly button): Measure around your naked waist and add 15cm.
For hip belt or for hipster jeans: Measure around your naked hips (the widest part) and take off 5cm.
