Instructor belt

[tstuart34]

I am am going to be picking up a Instrustor belt from Midway. But I am on the fence. I want to use this belt for competition mainly and some other misc stuff.

So here is my issue....my waist is currently measures 48" which puts me at the top end of a XL belt Size. So my question is am I going to have enough belt to start adding equipment to the belt? Shot shell holders mag carriers holster all that great fun stuff.

Need to add a couple of inches, mainly for the added gear, and in my situation, the belts normally shrink about an inch a year.  Know I ain't gainin' weight or anything.....

I had always read adding 2" but I wasn't sure if that went for everything or not.

I hope to be looking some inches this year but I totally get you.

Any idea if these belts stretch over time like normal leather belts?

I recently bought an instructor belt from midway. I would say they are longer than advertised.  I kind of wish I had gotten a size smaller.

I wear 38 in waist pants, I bought the 36-38 in belt. When I wear it the end of the belt is at the 9 o clock position on my side.

If you got the large then I could see that based on the fact that its 38-42

So just a follow up I picked up a XL belt and it is BIG. I should of got a L belt. But it works for what I use it for.
