This is one classic belt. The width is 1 1/2" which is perfect for your jeans. For those sailors out there you will recognize these great pelican hooks . This hardware is of great quality and are made in bronze. I fashioned this belt using the loop system which is very adjustable. The end of the belt goes behind buckle and through a keeper giving you a nice clean finish. Both men and women love this belt. Please refer to sizing page for your center hole dimension. I place you in the forth loop down, so this gives you three loops tighter and two loops larger. Note: These pelican hooks are nearly 4" long, so they may not lay perfectly flat on a very small waist. Please e-mail me if you have any questions.
