I've had these three belts for coming up on twenty years...they are nearly vintage. They were made to emulate those fabulously flattering designs of the early 1950s. You get all three for one money...extra-extra wide stretchy elastic w vinyl + four heavy metal snaps to secure.

They run about 27" long end to end and are just shy of 4" "tall."

When closed they are waist 25" slack, and they stretch to max out at about 32"...they'll stretch beyond that, but this is keeping it reasonable.

Unworn, but lightly used as prop pieces back in the day. The black belt is missing one half of one snap, as shown. Still closes quite securely due to the other three heavy-duty snaps. See photos. These are cool, and you get all three! Not looking to make money on 'em, just to find homes where they'll be worn and enjoyed.

I'm including some fun ads and ephemera for the cincher belt trend of the early 50s. The scolding article from 1952 argues against these "fad" belts, while the other 1952 article teaches you how to MAKE them, lol. The ads are from ca. 1951/52.
