What is your belt size?

[Greg Perkins]

Just use some rope OR a ziptie around two of the loops (that works really well).

I'm weird, a size 42 pant is tight, and a size 44 is really loose, so I'm in the range of a size 43. But I believe I wear a 44 Belt.

Ok so I probably did this wrong...

But

Waist: 29
Hips: 34

I tend to wear my pants below my hips though.

Tytus..what kind of designs do you have in mind?

You might have done that wrong Michelle - hips are generally 'the widest part' for a girl which would include going around the seat of the pants. Wearing your pants below your hips, then, would result in you probably not wearing any pants.

Just put on your jeans/pants, string something through the loops, and measure the length end to end.

thats true but belts with mechanical style belt buckles do that and look cool too.

It depends if I put it on my leg or my waist.

Any consideration of a thinner belt? All of my belt loops are too thin to hold a belt much thicker an an inch. I don't know if that is a characteristic of ladies pants, or just the one's I like.

[Michelle Celio]

Tytus any word on making a belt buckle for those of use who are attached to our belts?

I'm really attached to mine because it's checker board :-D

[Gabe]

I am really thin with a size 32 belt. The belt I have now is in need of replacement, and anything FIRST oriented I will wear with pride.

[Tytus Gerrish]

price would be between $25 and $50. a few factors of price still linger in the air so untill its setteled i cant be any more specfic. yes its completely possible to have thinner belts. theyre all cut from a leather sheet with the waterjet anyways.

Jane said i should dig up the picture that sparked the intrest in the buckle so here it is

[Astronouth7303]

Maybe you can make them from brushed aluminum?

Very cool. I may buy one myself.

Apparently you can cut just about anything on a waterjet.

Awesome Tytus. Now I need to get back to work. What about selling just the buckle? For those who like to interchange buckles like I do. I really like my Superman buckle and my work belt. I'll definitely get one though.

I'm a 28 waist, but a 36 belt size. This is because I'm too tall for my thickness, so I need like 34-36 waist pants to get a good fitting length. Sorry, I've been trying to gain weight since like freshman year when I was five feet tall. And I weighed 85. ANYWAY...FIRST Apparel would rock. My socks. Literally.


Its becuase I'm hypoglaecimic. I totally just mispelled that.

Oh and yes, zipties, usb chords, camera/computer chords, rope, caribeaners, and those clippy things that often hold stacks of paper together are all very good for keeping your pants up.
