Our Handmade Leather Belt Sizing Guide

CARV belts are sized in inches. The length refers to the length of strap (taken from the point at which it loops around the buckle) to the hole. Holes are at 1 inch spacings and an extra 5 inches is added at the end of the belt. See the diagram below for an illustration.

As an example - On a 28 to 32 inch belt, the first (smallest) hole is 28 inches length and the longest hole is at 32 inches with three holes in between (at 29, 30 and 31 inches).

Sizing assistance:

To accurately assess your correct belt size (if you wear a belt with one type of jeans/trouser):

  1. Measure the circumference around the place on the body where you typically wear a belt (e.g. around the waist, on the hip high or on the hip low).

  2. Use this measurement for the smallest size and the largest size should be four inches above.

For example, if you measure 28 inches around the hip where you typically wear a belt select size 28 - 32 inches.

If you would like the flexibility to wear your belt in more than one place (for example high waist and also at the hip):

  1. Take your waist measurement and hip measurement.

  2. The waist measurement will be the smallest size and the largest size will be four inches above the hip measurement.

For example, if you want the flexibility to wear your belt with both high waist and mid rise jeans, your waist measurement is 26 inches and hip measurement is 28 inches, select size 26 - 32 inches.

If your size requirement is not in the standard range select the ‘custom’ option and leave a note on checkout with your required sizing.

If in any doubt we recommend sizing up a little! Smaller holes can always be added if needed.
