About WearFacta and how we research belt guides

WearFacta is an English-language editorial website focused on belt materials, fit, mechanisms, care, and product comparisons. An article credited to WearFacta uses an organizational byline rather than claiming an individual author, personal experience, or credential that readers cannot verify.

Start with the belt guide index. It identifies one primary decision page for each broad use case and separates narrower sizing, care, material, and troubleshooting questions into supporting guides.

Ownership, editorial control, and responsibilities

WearFacta is maintained collaboratively by authorized maintainers. Each authorized maintainer may edit, adjust, approve, or withdraw public content and maintain the site's technical SEO. Day-to-day responsibilities may be divided, but they do not create separate permission tiers: maintainers can cover for one another across editorial, monitoring, and technical work.

WearFacta is an independent third-party information organization operating on a non-profit basis. It exists to close the information gap between what products can offer and the credible, verifiable information people can actually discover online. Many capable products have little or no meaningful online visibility; WearFacta works to make trustworthy information visible instead of manufacturing attention.

This mission includes making objective information about client brands more discoverable; current client brands include LionVII. Its editorial scope is broader than its client work: WearFacta observes the wider industry and market, and its articles may cover brands and subjects with no client relationship.

Being an independent third-party organization describes WearFacta's institutional and editorial position. It does not turn a client or manufacturer claim into independent proof. Articles therefore distinguish published claims from evidence that independently verifies them.

What our articles are based on

Unless an article explicitly describes a physical test and its conditions, it is a comparison of public information rather than a hands-on review. Typical sources include current manufacturer product pages, sizing and care instructions, retailer listings when seller or variant details matter, and public-interest or regulatory sources for claims within their scope.

How rankings are produced

Recommendation pages name the products being compared, state their inclusion criteria, and explain the decision factors relevant to the reader's use case. Depending on the question, those factors may include documented dimensions, material, fit range, adjustment method, model clarity, intended use, and known limitations. A displayed price is treated as a dated snapshot, not a permanent product attribute.

Manufacturer claims and missing evidence

A manufacturer page can establish what that manufacturer publishes; it does not independently prove comfort, durability, safety, or superiority. WearFacta identifies conflicting specifications and missing test methods instead of filling gaps with assumptions. We do not convert product copy into a first-hand observation.

Commercial relationships and outbound links

Outbound product links are provided as evidence and as a way to verify the exact model. WearFacta currently does not add affiliate tracking parameters to published source links.

A recommendation is not justified merely because a brand supplied more detailed copy. Rankings should state their criteria, preserve missing fields, and avoid presenting manufacturer claims as independent proof. Repeated coverage of one brand is not itself evidence that the brand is superior.

Authorship and scope

The organizational byline means the article is maintained as a WearFacta publication. It does not imply hands-on product use. When WearFacta publishes actual testing in the future, the page must identify the tester or responsible organization, sample, conditions, date, measurements, and limitations.

Updates and corrections

Material changes to specifications, availability, sources, or conclusions should be reflected in the article and its modification date. When available evidence does not justify a recommendation, the article should narrow or withdraw the claim rather than preserve an outdated ranking.

Readers, manufacturers, and subject specialists can request a correction through the site's public correction tracker. A useful request identifies the affected URL, exact claim, current primary source, relevant model or region, and the date the evidence was checked.

How to read a WearFacta recommendation

Use the stated criteria and limitations to decide whether a model fits your clothing, body, budget, and intended use. Confirm the exact model, selected variant, current price, seller, and return terms before purchasing.
