I have a 36" waist, what size would give me the best fit? I don't want it too tight.

I've got a set of 'large', 'medium' and 'small'. I've got an almost 36" waist and all three sizes fit. The 'large' is very comfortable, the 'medium' is more firm and the 'small' seems somewhat reminiscent of what a girdle must feel like. I'm an old guy that exercises frequently and suspect repeating hernias. So all three have their use cases and I'm happy with the lot. BTW, the 'package' container portion seems the same size on all three, only the waist band differs.

I think i got a med with a 33 waist. They fit tight so a lg might even be tight for u.

Depends on how tight you can squeeze your waist. I used to be 32 and that's when I first got this belt in Medium. Now I wear 36 size pants but I still use the Medium size belt. My waist can compress quite a bit though, and I like my belt extra tight. Cheers.

I have a 36" waist. I just purchased the XXXL based on the reviews here. The fit great and I love them.

34, I got a 44 and it's perfect for my 44 waist. Not like others, it will fit the appropriate waist size.

I'm 5'9, 225 and 36" waist. The XL works well for me. I would assume you would want XL.

I have a 33-inch waist and the medium fits very well. I imagine that they would still fit if I were a 34, but I think they would be slightly tight.

I have waist 33 and Size Medium fits me best..... I did the mistake once to purchase a Large, because I believed that my pants were a bit 'too' tight.... Big mistake! the Large pants don't compress as well as the Medium size; I am convinced that compression pants should fit very tight otherwise it will detriment its value. Go for Medium mate.

I'm 6-1, about 203 and have a 34 inch waist. I got a large which fits perfectly. I would say a medium for you if you have a 31 inch waist.

I would go with the medium. I have a 34 waist and the large was just right. the length should not be an issue due to the elastic binding at the ankles.

It should fit someone with a waist size about 42 to 44 max. I'm a 38 size waist and letting out the buckles, I'm getting about 4'' slack around me.

Hi!My waist size is 30, small fits me fine; I would say for 38 waist, perhaps medium.Best wishes...

I'm a 36 waist too and this is rather snug. It's bearable, but only for an hour or two until my back begins to hurt, so you may want to go a size up, depending on your intended use.

I went with typical men's waist sized, i.e., whatever your pants waist size is I would use the same...mine fit perfectly using this criteria.

I have a 36 inch waist and a large is very comfortable for me. I would assume that an extra large would fit 38 to 44 inches.

I say, if you want tight fit, go with small. A bit of room, then medium. *I wear waist 30-1 in jeans and got a small. It fits good. Hope that helps.

I would suggest a 38 for a comfortable fit and a 36 if you like a tighter fit. Hope that helps.
