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 Donald Manipole

I'm a big fan of Dark Iron's products, and I've been really excited about this dip belt's release for a long time. First thoughts on unpacking is that it feels extremely well crafted. I was a bit cautious about it to be honest, since most of the belts I've used int he past have been a bit of chain attached to a bit of leather. While that design does have the charm of a more "classic" weightlifting feel, this is by far the more comfortable and superior product. I felt no pressure points while doing dips and pull-ups with it, and it was quite easy to add weight to the belt without any awkward crouching over. The one issue that I've had with this design is that all the additional features, the cushion on the belt, the extra strap for waist support, the double carabiner attachment, seems to take up quite a lot of space, so it's not something I can just keep in my gym bag all the time. That said, it is an extremely well made product and I really feel like I'm nitpicking to point out flaws with it at all. Very pleased with the product for the price.
