This is an accessory purchase from 101. For some reason, these products were never scaled for real adults. Why do you think L and XL sizes are always sold out? This is a sector where Walmart is very useful. But I digress. This is a great belt and exactly what I was looking for. I just wish they made one in brown. You can also shorten them easily by cutting them off and pinching back the metal, although as a woman I prefer not to have that piece of metal at all, so I just remove it and stick the lighter in. at the end.
