Abstract: A waist belt for use with pants, trousers, jeans, or slacks has contour support portions formed or attached at locations that correspond to front and back recesses in the human body at the waist line. Favorably there is a back support portion to be located at the small of the back and left and right support portions at locations where the torso meets the respective upper legs. These can be of a length and thickness for the given wearer and positioned on the inside surface of the belt strap portion for the wearer to provide a custom fit. These may be formed with the belt strap, affixed to the strap or repositionably attached, e.g., with buttons, snaps or Velcro or another hook-loop system.
