What Size Belt To Buy - Men's Clothing Fit Guide

About this video

Weston teaches men how to select properly fitting belts by covering the correct width and length for both dress and casual belts. She explains that dress belts should be approximately one and a half inches wide, while casual belts should measure between one and three quarters to two inches wide. Weston also recommends purchasing a belt one size larger than your actual waist measurement to achieve the correct proportion of excess belt.

Key takeaways

• Weston argues dress belts should be one and a half inches wide—thinner looks feminine, wider looks too casual
• Weston recommends casual belts measure between one and three quarters to two inches wide for proper visual proportions
• Weston advises buying a belt one size up from your waist measurement (e.g., a 34-inch belt for a 32-inch waist) to show the right amount of excess
