I originally ordered the XL version which was WAY big for me. So I sent it back and got this smaller size. I didn't know you could cut the belt! Nowhere on the box that came with the belt does it say it can be cut. It wasn't until I looked back that I realized it might be cut. If I had known I could cut it I would have left a larger size. This smaller size fits, but I would prefer the larger one so I can drill more holes, not just the top two or so holes. So you can easily crop and adjust to fit both regular and extra large if you want/need. Overall very happy to find a vegan leather belt at a reasonable price. I love it!
