How To Tie Your Belt

  Hold belt at its center, ends even, with stripes (if you have them) on the 

  right side.

  Place center of belt on front center of jacket, about one inch below the

  naval (a location called the tanden). Wrap belt around your waist. Stripes

  will now be on your left side. Pull ends of belt forward and adjust so the

  ends are even.

  Lay the right side of belt over the tanden. Lay the left side of belt across

  the tanden (on top). Stripes will now be on your right side.

  Slide the belt that is on top (striped side) under and behind all the belt

  layers at the tanden. Stripes will still be on your right side.

  Loop the bottom side.

  Bring top (striped) end of belt down and over the front of the U

  Loop top (striped) end under and up through the U shape to form a knot.

  Pull ends of belt outward to tighten knot. Stripes will be on your left

  side.  The knot should look like a fortune cookie facing the right side.

  Adjust knot so the ends of belt are even and hang neatly.
