Review on Dark Iron Fitness Dip Belt – Padded Leather Weight Lifting Belts W/ 40 Inch Strap For Squats & Pull Ups - Men & Women Weightlifting Up To 270Lbs by Kevin Mitchell

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Durable and Comfortable

After almost two years of use I noticed this belt looked like it could be sold "as-new" and thought that merited a review (bought Aug/2017 and reviewed June/2019).The main concerns I had when purchased were that the weight strap would wear down or the padding in the belt itself would wear or compress over time. Both have proven unfounded, the belt has thick padding that remains very comfortable on bone more than 400 times after it's been strapped on. I expect a belt this wide would be comfortable for most regardless, but I can confirm as a more skin-to-bone individual that the padding eliminates any discomfort. The weight strap itself shows no wear despite the 2000+ times plates have slide on and off.The only negative I could cite with this belt is that the width of the loops on the weight strap can make snapping the carabiner on/off a challenge. It can be a tight and awkward fit, it work fine when oriented correctly and is a couple second's of hassle when not. It's a simple enough issue that I quickly learned to minimize, imperfect but I expect the same for more.
