Iron Heart Belts

[dang]

Hi guys,

I wear 31 on a DC4001. Should I get a Medium or Large belt? Thanks!

[nameness]

Check the size charts for the belt.  If your waist is a true 31 I'd go medium.

[Giles]

I would agree.  I'm 33 and wear an L

I'm not so sure… I'm W29-30 and sometimes wish I had the L belt instead of M...
On jeans with the W measuring 31+
I'm often at the last or next last hole and the belt looks a lil odd
They're so easy to shorten, but I haven't figured out how to lengthen...
Just my thoughts

Very good point Jaco.  If on the fence, go a size larger and reduce to perfection….

[nameness]

Whatever works.  I'm a 33, have a large that I've only worn once and I'm going to sell because I'm on the first notch now and the tail is too long.  I'd rather not butcher it.

[Giles]

Honestly it is super easy to do…..

@nameness
wanna trade your L for my M?

[nameness]

Sure, PM sent.

i am now determined to get an IHB-03 natural. . .  .

I might have an extra one that will work for you Monday, pm me with the length you want and I'll let you know.

How many people have an "extra" IHB-03 laying around…..
Only you Z...

Hahah that's crazy zhivago. I hope it works out for monday, though!..

As am I. It's beautiful and I love that you essentially customize it with every wear.

I feel the same way. However, I've never really been a fan of wearing a belt on either of the last two holes. When your large comes in, be sure to post some flics and let us know how it wears. It will probably influence my future belt purchases.

pm sent z

thanks again

[jacoavlu]

you can easily shorten the 01 and 02 belts
but you can't shorten the 03
easy to understand why when you look at the construction

IHB-02 Black, thanks G and P. Looks/feels much better with 9634z, the brown one was doing my head in, didn't realise I was so OCD
