I'm 6ft 1in and about 215 pounds. Depending on the brand, I wear fog pants with a 34" to 36" waist. That's why I bought the 38" and it fits well with some room left. Now just to see how long it lasts. I recommend.
Pros
Maybe it will become more flexible over time, but I doubt it. However, more than worth the price.
Cons
That's a good belt. Well made and appears to be durable. However, the color is yellowish brown... not cognac.
