The only labels I care about are the date labels. All others can be simply removed if they are in the way. If, and only if necessary, the labels can be removed carefully by cutting the stitching with an exacto knife. Just stay on the label side, and don't nick the belt. If the date label nust be moved, it can be reattached elsewhere. (Yes, I know, someone might run expired belts with new labels, but I can't regulate stupidity!)

In all probability, the labels won't interfere at all, depending on your size. On my belts, they don't come near the adjustors. Mike puke

Sorry--I always wanted to try that gremlin!!
