The Sizing Guide

One measurement, taken properly, and the belt is right for a decade. Here is how we do it.

How to measure

The simplest method needs no tape at all. Order the same size as your trousers. A 34-inch trouser waist takes a 34 belt — we cut the strap longer than the stated size so the centre hole lands where it should.

If you would rather measure, do it this way:

Take a belt you already wear and like, and lay it flat.
Measure from the fold at the buckle to the hole you actually use — not to the tip.
That number, in inches, is your White Sand size.

Measuring around your body over a shirt works too, but add nothing and subtract nothing — we have already built the allowance in.

Size chart

Every belt is cut to order in the sizes below. Between two sizes, take the larger — a belt can be shortened, never lengthened.

Waist size · strap length · corresponding trouser size
Size	Waist (in)	Waist (cm)	Strap length	Trouser
30	29–31	74–79	34 in	30
32	31–33	79–84	36 in	32
34	33–35	84–89	38 in	34
36	35–37	89–94	40 in	36
38	37–39	94–99	42 in	38
40	39–41	99–104	44 in	40
42	41–43	104–109	46 in	42

Holes & hardware

Five holes, punched at one-inch spacing, with the centre hole matched to your stated size. That gives two inches of adjustment in either direction — enough for a heavy winter shirt or a long summer.

Straps are cut to 35 mm for the Signature and Reserve lines and 38 mm for Casual, which suits belt loops on both dress trousers and denim. Buckles are solid cast gold alloy in three finishes — antique gold, polished gold, and white gold — chosen at the moment of order.

IV.

Resizing

Bodies change. Belts should follow. Resizing is complimentary within the first year and charged at cost thereafter — we shorten the strap from the buckle end, re-skive the fold, and restitch it so the work is invisible.

Send it back through our returns process, or write to the atelier and we will arrange collection.

Bag dimensions

Bags are one size. Each is built on a rigid pattern, so the proportions hold whether the bag is full or empty — measure the space you need it to fit, not the volume you hope to carry.

Width × height × depth · all bags one size

The Portfolio	38 × 28 × 7 cm	Hand	14-inch laptop, legal pad
The Ivoire	34 × 30 × 14 cm	Twin 22 cm handles	Day bag, folio, flask
The Weekender	50 × 30 × 26 cm	Hand or shoulder	Three days, cabin-legal
The Soirée	26 × 15 × 3 cm	Hand	Phone, card case, lipstick
The Courier	36 × 27 × 10 cm	140 cm strap	13-inch laptop, papers
The Attaché	42 × 31 × 9 cm	Hand	16-inch laptop, files
