Some of the loops for the cartridges on my leather cartridge belt are getting loose. How do I shrink/tighten them up?

Thanks for any replies.

Frank,put empty cases in the loops then leave the belt underwater over night. That will cause leather contraction.Oil it good afterward,neatsfoot oil works great.
