This belt resembles those I could buy for $5 when I was a teenager rolling a pack of cigarettes under my shirt sleeve. It was a long time ago! Fast forward to today and you can buy the same for $22. Combine this with a heavy duty Garrison buckle like WellieSTR (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00XQUL90G/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) and you're done. they are true to size. Measure with a tape measure, add two inches and that is your belt size.
