Isabelt Review and Giveaway! Opinion Updated!




Isabelt is all about keeping your pants in place without the bulk of a belt! They will prevent the "back gap" and keep your pants up where they are supposed to be! They have three great products for me to introduce you too the original isabelt, the isabelt wide, and isastrips!

The original isabelt and the isabelt wide are basically the same product only one is wide like a regular belt. They both come in black and clear. They are stretchy making it easy to adjust.

The original isabelt comes in small, medium, large, and plus size. While the Isabelt Wide fits up to a 50 inch waist!

The Isastrips can be used to keep your Isabelt in place or to keep your clothing in place.

Isabelts are to be adjusted prior to wearing and the directions should be read carefully before adjusting. It is really simple, but also different from what you would expect. When you first see the Isabelt you will probably want to adjust it the same as a bra, but it will not work. Instead you must "Hold belt above rough textured area close to adjuster with thumb & forefinger." then "With other hand, gently pull top strap at a downward angle to lengthen or shorten the belt."

My opinion of Isabelt . . .

I really like the Original Isabelt although I did have trouble with it staying in place. The original Isabelt is much thinner than the area between your belt loops making it difficult to keep in place. The Isastrips will help with this if you take the time to put them on. Although I would suggest going with the Isabelt Wide if you are planning to wear it with jeans on a regular basis. This should be closer to the belt loop size making it easier to keep in place.

The Isastrips are great for keeping your Isabelt in place, but also have lots of other uses. For heavy chested women the Isastrips will keep your button up shirt from gapping open just place a strip on the inside of your shirt! I am sure there are lots more, but the button up shirt use is a big one for me!

UPDATE: I received an email from Elaine suggesting that I should hook the Original Isabelt under the button of my jeans to prevent slipage. It appears that this does solve the problem so now I have to say that I give it two thumbs up. Thanks for the heads up Elaine!

No slippage, No Bulk, and no more pulling my pants up all day! I would say that is two thumbs up!!

Giveaway Opportunity!

One lucky reader will receive the Isabelt Wide! I have to say that I am a little jealous!

I love the fact that the belts are thin, flexible and that you can barely see them!

I need one of these! I like that they are thin and don't add any extra bulk - that's not an area that I need any extra padding.

The thing I love the most is that you cant really see it. I hate wearing belts, but I am constantly pulling my pants up if I don't. This would fix both things =)

I hate the feeling of a bulky belt digging into my tummy when I bend- I believe that the Isabelt will definitely help with this problem! thanks so much!

Ken said...

My sister loves that the isABelt prevents back gap, slippage, belt bulk and belt bulge. Please accept my entry. Thank you.

I love how thin the Isabelt is! I hate how when I wear long shirts, my belt always makes it look like my belly juts out. I think this would be great to have!

I hate when you see too much of mine or anyone else back. I like the belt because it prevents that. I also like her design of love, peace, and happiness.

I like that it doesn't have a belt bulge. Most of my jeans are very low cut, so I need to wear a belt with them to keep them up, but then the belt protrudes and looks like a belly bulge in certain outfits. Thanks for the giveaway!

My favorite feature is that the belt is flat, so I can wear a more form fitting top without having the belt showing through.

I like it that it is thin, strong and flexible and it's invisible like you aren't wearing any belt. It's something I haven't already have.
