Testimonials
I was in the Marine Corps with Kris. I don't lift, but wanted to support Belt Fed Strength. I bought a koozie from them this spring. They are great people who make great products, and they do so much for their community. I was so proud of how they stepped up during the flooding last fall. I love the koozie, except my wife took it over and she uses it more than I do. If there ends up being a negative review on their website, it's from someone who just can't be pleased.

If you look around your gym, your belt is probably one of the most often used pieces of equipment. Belt Fed Strength made my belt with both function and legacy in mind. It supports my best lifts, and its artistry motivates me. One of my children will probably use this belt.
​
The BFAS performs simple cable movements with an elegant feel. The leather gets to know you; it forms to your hands the more you use it. Tricep push downs, face pulls, and bicep curls, just to name a few, are more comfortable with the BFAS.
​
I use boring old mugs all week, but on Saturday morning, I take my time with my coffee, and I enjoy using my Belt Fed mug. The leather breaks in just like a BFAS and it ages beautifully.

I have a wallet like that episode of Seinfeld. I think it’s giving me back pain. Thanks to the Belt Fed slim wallet design, I offloaded the 82 loyalty cards I never really used, streamlined what I really needed to carry, and stopped looking like I had a brick in my back pocket.

Where else can you find a large cartoon rendering of a man’s hairy belly? It makes my children laugh every time they come in my gym.

Kris and Randy are two of the most genuine people I have ever met in this industry, you can honestly tell they love what they do and do a damn food job at it. I love my custom 13mm lever belt they made for me last year, the only thing I would do differently is have ordered it sooner!

Kris and Randi created such a beautiful piece of art for me to wear every time I lift. They were so wonderful to work with when planning what all I wanted the belt to include. They pour themselves into each piece, making it not only stunning but also lasting and durable.

BFS consistently delivers top-notch products that I've come to rely on for their exceptional quality and performance. Their commitment to excellence is evident in every use. What truly sets them apart, however, is the kindness and generosity of the BFS family. Their dedication to giving back to the community is genuinely inspiring and speaks volumes about their values. While I recommend several gym equipment companies, BFS stands out as a leader in both product quality and community spirit. I'm proud to support them and can't recommend them highly enough.

A few words to describe Beltfed Strength? Distinguished, Artisanal, Unyielding, Sensual. But a few words cannot begin to cover what Beltfed is, if a picture is worth a thousand words a handcrafted belt is worth at least 1,834, 657.
No one else puts as much love into their leather. They smeared it on in great heaping globs. They work it in with strong, but delicate, fingers. They whisper sweet nothings into every product's rivets and then give them a firm but loving slap. And what does all this love get you? A handmade, bespoke, piece of leather that is as functional as it is beautiful.
But it doesn't end with the products, Beltfed goes above and beyond with customer satisfaction as well. Who else would message you to ask if you would prefer to such on Mink or Neatsfoot oil while hoisting thick loads with your teeth on a brand new bit? Anywhere else would just spray the leather down with Pam cooking spray and call it a day. But not Beltfed! When you order from them you are family. If you don't order from them you are probably also family too. Do they treat you this way so they can commit tax fraud by writing off hundreds of dependants? Possibly. But more importantly they treat you like family because they are good peoples.
I would trust my life to leather that Kris and Randi have crafted, and so should you.
Love,
Mark

I have a pair of the BFAS straps and a beautifully worked 3" belt that I bought from the 2024 HomeGymCon overstock, and a couple of other belts from another manufacturer. The quality and finish on my Beltfed leather goods are a step above my other equipment, and I'll never go back: these are heirloom pieces that are similar in cost to the rest of my stuff, and Beltfed is my immediate go-to when people ask me where they should look for a belt Thanks for making great stuff.
