Firstly I was size 34/34 when I bought wrangler, levis etc. So I thought as I received my 'BC Canvas Web Belt Flip- Top Black Buckle/Lace, Solid Color, 50" long x 1.5" wide, let DHL shave a few inches off this generous 50 length in no time "Cut it off! But I've found that it's not really necessary. This flip-top buckle opens and closes in one motion, and when the strap is tight enough, you can fully close it with a clicking sound in your hand holds the opened buckle and finally it is stowed in the second belt loop on the left. very nice style! I collected many different buckle systems in my shopping cart and read about the experiences of other customers. At least I have three BC Canvas Web straps (navy blue , anthracite and olive) with brass/silver flip-top buckles.
