How To Measure Belt Size


BELT SIZING: OBTAIN CORRECT SIZE TO ORDER: 

 

1. The actual waist measurement

2. Use an existing belt to obtain the measurement from the BUCKLE PRONG, to the belt hole CURRENTLY being worn ("SIZE TO ORDER"). (See photo above)

That measurement is the "SIZE" to order. We will give you a center hole at that measurement and three holes on each side of the center hole (seven holes total as pictured above). These methods are strongly encouraged to obtain the right measurement to center the name on a personalized name belt.  The total length of belt will be about 8" longer than "size" ordered.

3. The following method is not 100% accurate: An old rule of thumb for MEN is to order their PANTS SIZE plus 2-3" (do not use size from back of another belt). Example; a size 36" PANT would order a 38-39" belt.

*LADIES: PLEASE DO NOT ORDER PANTS SIZE; THAT IS NOT YOUR BELT SIZE. Below, we offer a ladies sizing guide for assistance only, BUT it is best to use an existing belt or tape measure. Measure where you intend to wear the belt (waist, hips, or somewhere in between).  If possible, use an existing belt to measure from the buckle prong to the hole you are using (see photo above). We will put your center hole at that measurement ("size") with three holes smaller and three holes larger. Your actual finished belt will be about 8" longer than size ordered.

PLEASE DO NOT MEASURE THE LENGTH FROM END TO END OR WITHOUT A BUCKLE. You will not get the correct size. Because sizing varies with different methods and different companies, it is strongly recommended you don't order the size taken from another belt.
 We will refund or replace a product for defect only. WE WILL NOT REFUND OR REPLACE A PERSONALIZED PRODUCT THAT WAS ORDERED INCORRECTLY. 


Personalized leather belts from Gavere Leather are a great complement to any wardrobe. The easiest & BEST way to determine a man’s belt size is to use a belt that is being used. Measure the length of the belt from the buckle prong to the hole the wearer is currently using.That is the "size" to order. This will give you the most accurate measurement for a man’s belt size. There are a total of 7 holes, three smaller & 3 larger than "size" ordered. The actual full length (from end to end) of the belt will be about 8" longer.

 For LADIES’ belts, measure an existing belt as discussed above, from tip of buckle prong to hole being worn comfortably. Ladies may wear their western leather belts on their hips, at their waists, or at another point somewhere between the two. Always measure where the belt is worn, waist, hips, or in between. 

We guarantee our belts against any kind of defect, but we do not replace belts that are incorrectly sized or personalized. Take your measurements carefully, and enjoy a long-lasting leather belt made in the USA by Gavere Leather.
