Men's belt 85 cm: Which clothing sizes does this correspond to?

A men's belt of 85 cm can fit various clothing sizes. Generally, this size corresponds to the following jeans and suit sizes:

  • Jeans size 29 (suit size 44)
  • Jeans size 30 (suit size 46)
  • Jeans size 31 (suit size 46)

It is good to know that your belt size often corresponds to your waist circumference in centimeters. For example, if your waist circumference is closer to 80 cm than 85 cm, you could consider getting an 80 cm belt. The belt will then have a slightly shorter overlap. Vice versa, this naturally applies if you are closer to 90 cm. In that case, you can choose to take a size 90. This is a personal preference; some people prefer a shorter overlap, while others prefer a longer one. If a size 80 or 90 is not available for a belt, always choose size 85!

How to measure your ideal belt size?

Determining the right belt size is simple. Follow one of these methods:

Option 1: Measuring a well-fitting old belt

Lay your current, well-fitting belt flat on a table. Measure the distance from the beginning of the leather at the buckle (do not include the buckle itself) to the hole you use most often. The number of centimeters you measure is your ideal belt size. Belts are standardly delivered with five holes, with the middle hole being the specified size of the belt. This gives you two holes of leeway on both sides.

Option 2: Measuring your waist circumference

Wear trousers that you would often wear with a belt. Thread a measuring tape through the loops of your trousers, at the height where you normally wear your belt. Do not pull the tape too tight, but ensure it fits comfortably.

The number of centimeters you measure is your belt size. If, for example, you measure 87 cm, it is best to order an 85 cm belt. If you measure 88 cm, a 90 cm belt is likely a better choice, depending on whether you prefer a tighter or looser fit and how much overlap you desire. If you are in doubt or the belt is not available in size 90, then choose size 85.

Option 3: Checking your jeans size in the table below

You can read your trouser size on the label on the inside of your trousers or on the label on the back of your jeans. The number next to the W (Waist) is the size you need for your belt size. 

This option is a bit more difficult because many different jeans brands calculate sizes differently. However, in general, these sizes are accurate and it is safe to stick to them.
