Dawn, you're right. The annoying thing is that they would have been fine if the straps were just a little longer, one more hole for the buckle and they'd have fitted nicely. In a way it was nice to wear a pair that fitted so tightly, but they just got uncomfortable after half an hour or so.

Can you not just poke your own hole in them? I know many swiss army knives have a tool for poking holes in belts.

I thought of that question too, but you beat me to it. Sometimes there is enough stock left in the straps to make another adjustment hole. Sometimes not.

I did think of that, but sadly there was not enough extra strap to accommodate another hole. Ah well, I sold them on here a couple of years back and they went to a good home. Can't remember who to though.

At least they went to someone that could put them to use instead of to a second hand shop. You probably returned your costs in doing that.

No, I think I priced them too low really and made quite a loss. Still, someone get a good deal and the money I made went towards my next pair!
