When fitting the belly strap we have found through experience that placing the belly flap on the horses back adjusting and fastening the straps (use he best fitting retaining strap on the top of the rug for adjustment and then sliding the flap into place under the belly is the simplest way to attach. The belly flap then attaches to the two straps contained within the neck piece flap when passed between the front legs.
These rugs are sized in the European way, they are measured from the wither to the tail - refer to the EU back seam measurement below for sizing i.e if your horse is usually in a 6ft rug he would need a 135 cm
