Belt Sizing Guide

How to Measure Your Waist Size with a Cloth Tape

To ensure the perfect fit for your Klik Belt, follow these simple steps using a flexible cloth measuring tape:

What You’ll Need

• A cloth or soft measuring tape (tailor’s tape)
• Pants you normally wear with your belt
• A mirror or a second person (optional, for accuracy)

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Wear Your Usual Pants

Put on the pants you wear most often with your belt — jeans, tactical pants, work pants, etc. This ensures you measure at the same position where your Klik Belt will sit.

---

Step 2: Thread the Measuring Tape Like a Belt

Take the cloth measuring tape and weave it through your belt loops, just like you would with your belt. This is the most accurate way to simulate how the belt will fit.

• Do not measure over a belt or thick clothing, as this can throw off your measurement.

• For firearm-related measurements, see Pro Tips for EDC, Duty Belts & Concealed Carry below.

Step 3: Measure — Pull Snug, Not Tight

Pull the measuring tape snug around your waistline. It should be comfortably snug — not loose, but not pinching your skin. Look in a mirror or ask someone to help you check the number where the tape meets.

Pro Tips for EDC, Duty Belts & Concealed Carry

• Measure twice: first without your concealed-carry setup; then again with your concealed carry to confirm you’re within the correct range.
• With an IWB (in-waistband) holster, many full-frame concealed-carry handguns can increase your effective waist measurement by about 1.0–1.5 inches.
• Duty belts over an inner/under belt: thread the measuring tape through your belt loops and over the inner/under belt to capture the correct measurement.

---

Step 4: Note the Measurement

Take note of the number where the zero end of the tape meets the measured length. Round up to the nearest whole inch (or centimeter).

---

Step 5: Use the Sizing Chart

Refer to the Klik Belts sizing chart and match your measurement to the recommended belt size. If you’re in between sizes, we recommend sizing up.

Don’t Have a Cloth Measuring Tape?

• Use a string, shoelace, charging cable, or an existing belt. Thread it through your belt loops at the position you wear your belt.
• Pull it snug (not tight), mark where it overlaps, then lay it flat and measure with a ruler or tape measure. Round up to the nearest inch (or cm).
