Belt Size & Fit Guide
Belt Size & Fit Guide
Every SKIMP belt is one size and cut to fit at home. There's no size to choose when you order: you trim the strap to your perfect length in a couple of minutes with a sharp pair of scissors.
How to cut your belt to size
- Thread the belt through your trouser loops, wearing the trousers you'll usually wear it with.
- Clip the buckle onto a comfortable hole and check the fit.
- Mark where you'd like the tail to finish, leaving a little extra so you can tighten or loosen it later.
- Take the belt off, lay it flat and cut straight across at your mark with sharp scissors.
Tip: cut a little at a time. You can always take more off, but you can't add it back.
Check your belt will fit
Before you order, measure around your body where you wear your belt (usually just below your natural waist, around your hip bone), or measure a belt you already own from the buckle to the hole you use most. If that measurement is shorter than the strap lengths below, the belt will fit.
Good to know
- Originale, Printed & Equestrian belts: 140cm (approx. 55") long and 3.4–3.5cm wide. Fits up to a 52" waist.
- Charmeuse belts: our slim style, 115cm (approx. 45") long and 2cm wide.
- Buckles are interchangeable across belts of the same width, so you can mix and match colours.
