How do I measure for a belt?
You should buy a belt that's 2 inches longer than the waist size of your pants. For example, if your pant waist size is 34 inches, your belt size should be 36 inches. You'll want the belt to hook in one of the center holes and still feel comfortable around your waist. The same rule applies if you'll be wearing a belt on your hips.
Does belt width matter?
The width of the belt is determined by the width of the belt loops on your pants. If the belt loops are wide and the belt is thin, the belt will shift up and down. If the belt loops are thin, a thick belt might not stay in place or feel uncomfortable. A wide belt can cause a thin belt loop to break. For most jeans, a 1.5-inch belt width works best.
How should I measure for a metal belt?
You should wear the same size belt in metal and leather, but metal belts are typically more adjustable. If you need a belt to hold up your pants, a metal belt might not work. They are often made more for style than usefulness.
