If you already own a belt, we recommend measuring your current belt on the tightest setting you use to give you the circumference of the belt at the setting you usually use.
If you do not have a belt then please measure your waist where the belt will sit (which is normally just above the navel), with your abdominal muscles braced. Please do not use your pant waist measurement as this will not be accurate for the belt measurement.
We typically recommend a belt where you fall in the middle of the sizing guide, as this will allow you to adjust the belt in either direction depending on your preference of fit, what exercise you are using the belt for, should your bodyweight change, or if you wear the belt over layers of clothes or a neoprene belt.

How To Measure
If you already own a belt, we recommend measuring your current belt on the tightest setting you use to give you the circumference of the belt at the setting you usually use.
If you do not have a belt then please measure your waist where the belt will sit (which is normally just above the navel), with your abdominal muscles braced. Please do not use your trouser waist measurement as this will not be accurate for the belt measurement.
We typically recommend a belt where you fall in the middle of the sizing guide, as this will allow you to adjust the belt in either direction depending on your preference of fit, what exercise you are using the belt for, should your bodyweight change, or if you wear the belt over layers of clothes or a neoprene belt.
Care instructions
To ensure the outer face of the leather and the stitching retain their original appearance, we would recommend using a regular black shoe polish once every 1-3 months. Polish directly onto the leather and then buff to a shiny finish.
Avoid dropping or throwing the belt, as this can cause damage to the belt buckle.

yo matthew flannigan here and i approve this belt
Absolutely amazing belt feels good, the 10mm especially good for deadlifts and bench if you are a lighter lifter or have a small waist.
Shipping was bad, box ended up in a state
Unbelievable piece of kit. Impossible to compare with my previous belts. Can't wait to give it a try in the gym
Perfect
Exactly as i ordered
Buy cheap, buy twice. This is the one you need.
Proper but of kit but be careful with size comes up bigger than the guide suggests
Great belt , perfect fit
This is a seriously good belt; beautifully crafted. I can imagine this will last years and years.
Already added 20kg and can’t wait to add more.
Amazing product. Very good quality and best belt I’ve used
Original item ordered was too small however the exchange process was simple efficient & prompt - exchange item arrived within 4 days - a fantastic quality belt already being put to use - wouldn’t hesitate to recommend
Was initially very unsure whether I should get a 13mm vs 10mm, and I've no regrets with choosing a 10mm. As a casual gym goer, who likes his SBD lifts, this belt is great and way less uncomfortable than previous 13mm belts I have tried when hitting depth or during setting up for deadlifts. First time use itself resulted in PRs for both (element of placebo too lol). I am 5'8, ~75kg and waist 30cm, and I went for a medium size and fall right in the middle of the holes with plenty room either way for adjustment.
Absolutely amazing best belt I’ve owned
Upgraded from on old buckle belt and I have seen the light.
I was sick of the buckle, faffing around and never feeling consistently locked in. Recently on a DL my back went (I have ongoing lower disc issues) so I thought it was time to up my game.
asked around the gym and this name got thrown around by a few of the strongmen crowd, so I dug into it took the risk and I’m never going back.
The fastening system is genius, solid as anything, easy to adjust, lets you breath properly after the set with a quick loosen and feels ultra premium. The leather itself is top quality, you can see and feel the difference from other belts on the market. All made in the UK 🇬🇧
I’ve paired my belt with one of the evolution athletics support belts and the difference in stability, bracing and just general confidence has been staggering on the lifts. It’s like having a bear hug supporting you.
Yes, it’s £200. But I
This thing should last years, a decade, more. If you want quality and a long lasting item, it comes with a cost. But trust me, you won’t go back. The only belt I’ll recommend from now on.
Best belt of the five I've ever used in almost 20 years of powerlifting.
It’s a little stiff and uncomfortable at first but after breaking it in, feels fantastic
I have always lifted using double prong belts, decided to try the SBD belt, so easy to use, don't even have to look down to adjust it, workmanship is really top quality, feels comfortable on the three lifts, superior to any belt I have ever used.
Absolutely worth it
By far the best belt I’ve ever used.
My belt arrived a few days ago, I have used it a few times and wow, the difference you get from wearing a quality belt when deadlifting is amazing. The pressure you can apply to your core whilst securing it in place makes a big difference.
But its the quality of this belt that makes it stand out.
SBD, if you know, you know
They are the best.
Best purchase I’ve made for my gym journey. I feel so secure and already been able to increase weights. Love the belt!
This belt is amazing. Quality is second to none and probably gonna put last me.
Unbelievable quality and craftsmanship would highly recommend for anyone who is serious about lifting
Magical thing. I love it.
OMG what a brilliant belt it gives you so much confidence when lifting. My old Velcro belt was nothing compared to this 10mm belt. I purchased the size small at first but realised I needed a medium. Customer service was brilliant and advised me how to return and I had my new belt in a couple of days. Yes the belt is expensive but you certainly get what you pay for. I was advised the 10mm belt for what I do in the gym. The 13mm is more for power lifting as it’s a lot thicker support.
I think this belt will last me forever 😊👍
Superb quality belt. Very easy break in, comfortable really from the off. Glad I chose the 10mm. Don’t think most will need the 13mm
If I can say ‘this is the best you can get in the world’, it will only be about SBD belts. I was confused between 13mm and 10mm belts and hence ordered both. Eventually came to the conclusion that I wouldn’t need a 13mm belt as I’m not really a powerlifter and never trains at my 1 RM. 10mm belt is definitely easy to break in and really comfortable during any lifts. It is an absolute masterpiece with the quality and the lever is the best part which you can adjust on the go. You will never regret buying it. It will probably be the last weightlifting belt you would ever need in your life, definitely going to last forever!
I’ve owned this belt for several months now, and it’s truly remarkable. It’s 100% worth the price. The secure locking system is exceptional, offering the highest quality. You can genuinely appreciate the craftsmanship, and it has made my lifts feel much safer. The customer support is also outstanding; they deserve recognition. Initially, I received the 13mm belt, which had some minor cosmetic issues, but the support team promptly exchanged it for the 10mm version. The 10mm belt is a better fit for me as it’s more comfortable during squats. For those who can afford it, I highly recommend purchasing this belt—you won’t be disappointed. Since then, I’ve acquired several more items from SBD Apparel, including wrist wraps, elbow and knee sleeves, and figure-8 straps. All of them have been exceptional. Bravo to SBD Apparel!
To be very very honest the 10mm is far the best belt i have ever got first i bought 13mm which is not for me and I gave to one of my friend and now when i bought 10mm I just love how can i explain my squat improving every legs day along with Deadlift too I wasn't expecting this 10mm that much makes me happy because i have bad experience having 13mm which was not suited or fix on my body or may be it was too early but since I have use this 10mm in very first day i fell in love with it
Thanks SBD
Llegó en una semana exactamente, es algo caro pero vale completamente la pena la espera y la inversión en todo sentido.
