7mm single-ply leather weightlifting belt

This heavy-duty 7 mm lifting belt is handmade in Wisconsin.

• Our single-ply belt is constructed of 7 mm sole bend leather.
• Sole bend is a remarkably sturdy material, and combined with industrial rivets, it makes a belt you can use for the rest of your life.
• This belt’s robust USA stitching and USA industrial rivets ensure performance and longevity.
• This belt can last the rest of your lifting career and will age with you.
• It also meets USPA regulations.

Single-ply or double-ply?

Our single-ply belt is made with the same craftsmanship as our double-ply belt.

We find that a single-ply belt is both supportive enough for the barbell lifts and more comfortable for newer lifters.

That said, our Double-ply belt is more supportive (10 mm versus 7 mm). Its thickness (two pieces of leather glued and stitched together) creates more hoop tension when you brace against it.

Whether you want a single- or a double-ply belt is totally up to you, your budget, and your experience wearing belts.

How to size your belt

A belt is an essential tool for any trainee, and correct sizing keeps you from wasting money on the wrong one. Here’s how to size ours.

1. Measure around your waist at the belly button.
2. Subtract 2″.
3. Compare that number to the sizing chart below.
4. Decide on your future goals. If your goals include losing some fluff, choose a size that allows room to shrink into. If you need to gain weight, choose a size that allows room to grow into. If you have no plans to change size much, pick the size that lands you closest to the middle.
