HOW WE MEASURE BELTS
It is measured from the fold over the buckle to the most used hole.
We measured from the center hole.
If your measurement is an odd size, go one size up. For example, if you are 33", go up to 34". This method will give some breathing room.
Generally, if you wear a new belt or one you have never worn, whatever hole you were on will stretch one hole tighter after three to six months of daily wear. It will not extend any further after.
