How snug a fit should the belt be with the side flaps pulled forward? I can stretch them completely to the opposite edge of the Velcro overlapping.

the paper say overlap the right over the left to your choice the more you stretch it the tighter it will be on your back and waist i think to tight can hurt your stomach and stop you from moving full pace . i think i my have brought mine to big thinking i was going to buy it to small but the 2xl is for ppl with 42 waist and over the bad thing about this brace is that if you bend over alot the straps begin to bunch and you have to adjust it time to time if u feel like it but for its price with all the lifting i do i sure dont have back pains like i used to

If your talking about the elastic side things they can stretch all the way around.

The belt should be snug enough to where you are able to bend, stretch, or squat. If the belt pops a loose you will probably need to adjust it. Start with outer belt first and then the inner belt. If the belt keeps coming a loose, get a bigger size belt. If overlaps to much, you need a smaller size.Hopes this help."November"

There is a plastic mini buckle. One side fits into the other - fairly easy. Possible you have a defective item with missing or damaged. I wear mine around my waist underneath my shirt so that it can't be seen.

Yes there is a Velcro closure at the end to stop the end from flapping around. It does not secure the belt.

It's kinda long and stretchy...my waist is 28-30 and it fits me. If you want it tight (which I do for back support), you shouldn't have a problem. The Velcro is nice and wide and doesn't slip. If it's not tight enough for you, you can always have a friend or hubby help wrap you up! ;)

Hey G. Well... it will fit but will be tight. Actually the Dr. Sooothe itself is a plastic bag which goes inside the belt. So, I guess you could just contact them for final confirmation on that. The quality of the belt is not that great though. After some time the velcro does not hold it very well.

I have the tan version. Im 5.10 175lbs and i tightened all the straps left and right almost all the way down to have a snug fit... there is 3 adjustable straps on each side.. they extend about 6 inches... my guess is that it would fit as long as u have a proportionate body considering ur not packin all that in front... check to see if they have a XL version... But im sure the belt would fit to size 38 waist... im 32 waist and i had to tighten it... there is plenty of room to extend the belt.

The widest belt I have is 1-1/2" and it fits with room to spare. Maybe a 2" will fit snug.

I have a 90# German Shepherd and bought a large. As others stated, the Velcro closure on top will determine the tightness of the fit. That is the only "adjustment". There are two click-close buckles as well but they are more for keeping the stress off the Velcro. It has a tendency to slip down the back of my dog and bunch up ---but that is due to her condition: deterioration of spine. I also find it a bit difficult to put on.

Sorry, I sent you an answer based upon the belts that I have used from Mueller, and they were NOT adjustable. The two I bought were different sizes and were double pull. Since I run a back rehab clinic I was able to use both of them, even though they were undersized, they each helt to the velcro quite well. I looked up the adjustable and it says fits up to 50". I have yet to try that one.

Absolutely. Half of the belt buckle is permanently attached to one end of the belt. The other end of the belt goes through the other half of the buckle and folds back over itself and secures with Velcro. Almost the entire length of belt has soft side with a small patch on other end of rough side. The belt's minimum setup is 28 inches and the maximum is 48 inches. Any and every finite adjustment of waist size in between is possible. When setup properly, the belt folds inward and no Velcro is shown. Also the joining of the two sides of Velcro is held tight by the pressure of being sandwiched between the outside of the belt and your body so it is very secure.

The I belt I have is rigid across the webbing due to the extra velcro sewn into it.

The front is open and overlaps with Velcro until snug. You then pull side tabs attached to cords that cinch up the back, then the tabs also fasten with Velcro. Two step process. Hope this helps.

They both change. I've got a 32" waist...and used to have a large. It was OK, but when I really cinched it up? I had about 3 inches of velcro BEYOND the length of the adhesion strip. So now I have a medium, and it's perfect.You can cinch this thing up like a corset...it's so good that way. I love it!!! Buy the smallest one you can.

I wear a 38" Belt, and when fitted there is about 10" of excess belt. The buckle is a friction type double loop so the smaller your waist the more excess belt you will have. It should fit you just fine.

It is snug due to the Velcro. But it was a bit on the small size. My checkered mix outgrew it in 3 months.

Not sure if it would work, but you might get them both on the left side? not a whole lot of room...the belt is about 3" wide. A great holster!! well worth the purchase.

Mine slips down a little, but not enough to cause a problem. I just move it back up a little before I fasten my belt.
