How to Measure Your Waist Correctly
- Measure on bare skin — use a tailor’s tape around the widest part of your waist.
- Keep the tape horizontal and do not pull too tight or leave it too loose.
- Write down the result in centimeters (cm).
Choose Your Fit
Tight Fit
+ 0–1 cm
Maximum hold. Ideal for active use.
Standard Fit
+ 1–2 cm
Everyday comfort. Recommended option.
Loose Fit
+ 2–3 cm
For those who prefer a more relaxed feel.
Example: Waist circumference 72 cm → choose belt length 73–75 cm (standard fit).
🧵 The material will slightly stretch over time. If you are between two sizes, choose the smaller one.
Tips for Accurate Measurement
- Measure while relaxed, without sucking in your stomach.
- For repeated measurements, always use the same spot on your body.
- For children, measure twice to be sure.
