I find most to be over weight and can't get down the court. Give it up! As for the belt, to me you are wearing a uniform, like a suit if your paints calls for a belt, wear it. Like a police officer, or a army officer in his DRESS uniform, they have belts. Besides a ref should not be noticed on the court, only the players. Often I see to much "grandstanding" by those with as much shine on there shoes as they have on there hair!
In an ideal world, it wouldn't matter.

We don't live or officiate in an ideal world.

If "everyone" else wears beltless pants, and you wear belted pants, the initial impression will be that you aren't a "real" official.
