Silent Sid Weight Belts have been built up and tested with the help and experience of Carl Britt and his Gym, The Class House which is right on our doorstep here in Carmarthen Road Business Park. Having the gym just 10yrds from our workshop has given us the unique ability to build belts, make changes and test out the functionality literally immediatley, our ability to get that instant feedback is something no other Weight Belt manufacturer has. To find out more about Britt Personal Training visit their site brittpt.co.uk.
Below is an overview of just what goes into the making of our Weight Lifting Belts. We do document a few random belt builds with a photo diary and over time these will be added to the site showing some of the uniquely special belts that we get requested to do. Our Weight Belt prices start from £80.00. We don't do 'Standard' but for that price you get to choose from a selection of 4 Inner Suede colours (all of which are a plush 2.5mm (6oz) thick) and 8 or so Leather dye colours and a few stitch colours. All Belts are hand cut and hand dyed so no two will ever really be the same. We also use various airbrush techniques to get some VERY special finishes.
It takes us between 2-4weeks to complete your order depending on the length of our waiting list, Christmas tends to be our busiest period so please leave plenty of time to ensure we can get your order completed, if in doubt get in contact with us.
We use Fiebings Proffessional Oil Dye to get the best, deepest colour to our leather. This can then be distressed to give an aged look or airbrushed to get a true custom look.
We let the dye set for between 12-24hrs before adding a protective finish (like Fiebings Resolene or Tan Kote) which gives varying degrees of shine and ensures the belt stays looking good for longer.

We do actually airbrush even if it's a solid colour (as a last coat) this ensures a streak free proffessional finish.
×Black outer, Red suede lining with a White stitch...No problem, distressed Walnut outer with Purple suede inner and Burnt Orange stitch - we can do that too. The choice is all yours.
