Questions & Answers

Shopper : Is this made with neoprene? I have an allergy to neoprene which results in contact dermatitis. Suggestions???KEVIN F : Made with mesh, plastic, and nylon.JOHN H : It is made from a heavy duty web belt type material. I like it. It worked well for my two semesters of SCUBA certification through Middle Tennessee State University.CESAR S : No is not neoprene, is like a strong canvas with polyester.JOSEPH L : No there's no neopreneSTEVEN F : This weight belt does not contain any neoprene materials. It is plastic webbing and fabric.ROGER R : I used mine last week, NO neoprene, heavy duty canvas on outside w/ heavy duty mesh on the side against your body (like the mesh used for dive bags), zipper closure. Easier to balance my weight underwater w/ a belt.CARL F : It is not neoprene. I specifically bought this belt because it was not neoprene. As it is described , the pockets are Nylon webbing.
Shopper : What waist size is available ?YAN G : Scroll further down in the description, it lists this: 4-Pocket Belt fits Waist sizes from 23" to 31" (58 4 to 78 7 cm), 5-Pocket Belt fits Waist sizes from 29" to 38" (73 7 to 96 5 cm), 6-Pocket Belt fits Waist sizes 34" to 43" (86 4 to 109 2 cm) and the 7-Pocket Belt fits Waist sizes 39" to 48" (99 to 122 cm).
Mark J : What are the dimensions of the pockets (5-pocket version)?ALISON D : Big enough to take 5 pound block weights.
EDWARD M : overall length of 5 pocket belt? I have a 21 year old 5 pocket that is tight but the size range on new ones indicates that a 5 pocket will fit.ALAN M : Should fit as the belt is longer than needed. I had to trim mine.Steve S : The 5-Pocket Belt fits Waist sizes from 29" to 38".DAVID P : I have had several and like them very much. My waist size is between 38-39 inches and i have not had problem with my belt. I'm not at home with my belts but i think my belt has more than 5 pockets.
Shopper : Does this belt come with weights and if it does how much weight does it comes in?GREGORY S : No weight incl. buy locally BRYAN H : Shopper, The answer to your question is no, it does not come with weights. The reason I bought it is that it's much more comfortable than the typical web belt most divers use, and the weights are far easier to put in and take out when you're working on your boyancy or during a dive if you want to hand the diver master a small weight.WILLIAM R : The belt does not come with any weights, those are purchased seperately. RICHARD H : No, weights are sold separately.

Can use it with a harness

I have both types of belts, this and a 2" web. I thought I wouldn't be able to put my harness on this mesh belt, but it fits fine.

Great for the pool

Our BC's have intergral weight pouches, so we only use these in the pool. They stay out in the sun almost all year and we get about 5 years of use out of them. They do get used a lot. on our second set already.

Short Belt

I bought two of the seven pocket type (the largest) weight belts and with gloves on, there is not enough "extra" length to easily cinch it on a 36 inch waist and a 7 mm wetsuit (~5"). The other person found only about 2" to grab and tighten it. Wish they had more generous lengths. Other than that, they were well made.

Will last and last

Solid construction with heavy duty zipper. Wanted the yellow color so I can find it if I have to ditch it. I prefer a weight belt over integrated weight bags.

Functional for lighter jobs

I purchased this to use instead of putting weights into my BCD pockets in order to lighten my walking load. I found the buckle to be difficult to use and assume that because it's cheap plastic it will not last very long. I chose to get a different brand with a metal buckle.

Not bad for the money

bought for my son, mesh ripped at the seam on the third dive. May have just gotten one with a flaw. Decided to go with weight integration.

Mesh weight Belt- 6 pocket

An average weight belt, not superb, not substandard. It is more comfortable than a traditional belt, and it allowed me to add more weight than wanted to add to my integrated BCD when diving in a 7mm Farmer John in fresh water. Not much more to say.

Great weight belt!

This is a great weight belt for free diving, it keeps you very streamline. Also, I used this in gear removal demonstration and it was very helpful and comfortable to wear under my BCD that is weight integrated.

Poor quality

Very poor quality belt. After 10 dives the the pockets started to fall apart. If you buy this belt have plenty of duct tape with you because you are going to have to wrap the belt in tape to keep the weights from falling out. Its worth spending a little more money to get a better belt.

Great Mesh Pocket weight belt

Used to eliminate solid-weight contact. My wife complained about sore/bruised hips. Huge success!! So much so that it now goes on vacations with the integrated BCD. This allows better distribution of weights depending upon wetsuit used. Thick wetsuits demand too much integrated weight. Also used when we volunteer dive at local Aquarium Exhibits for 1.5-hour dives feeding & cleaning. Soft weight bags fit best into pockets. Solid weights need caution when closing zipper, as pockets are tight with large solid weight block. Both my wife and myself use the 4 pocket small on 32-33 inch waist.

does the job

this product has worked well on all my dives so far I like being able to mix my weight types and have an extra pocket for storage. I put a shell I found in one pocket and a dropped flashlight in another.

Easy and convenient

Mind you this is a great product. I like the fact I can just slip the weights in the pocket, zip and go. However, I used molded weights and they have begun to tear at the pockets. The pocket material could be denser. I suggest using weight pouches.

It's better than Velcro!

Great price for this belt. I've priced others at $60. The velcro close belts tend to rip and fray! And you get two added clip rings.

aqua weight belt

i dive warm water only. this is a good belt for recreational diving. i would have prefered to have the mesh on both sides of the belt to save weight and drying, but still a good unit.

Good for a couple of seasons

I have the four pocket version and carry 20 lbs of shot bags while ab diving. The small clip at the side was useful for hanging my fins while walking to an entry point and up and down rocky shores, but tore off after only a few uses. I probably only used it 6 days each year. After a few years it still functions, but some of the seams are opening on the weight pockets. Also the plastic mesh material is slippery so it tends to rotate when you don't want it to, and moves on your waist when diving and aescending. The wearing issue is understandable to the amount of stress it takes, but the slipping and sliding is annoying when you need to be concentrating on other things.

Color was misleading!

Arrived very quickly (good news) BUT this was NOT the configuration and color I expected (see product comments) BUT LP didn't want to cover RMA for shipping since the size was not the issue.

Great weight belt systems for the new diver, the experienced diver, and for training. Add or subtract weight quickly and easily with zippered and strong Cordura mesh backed self-draining pockets. Makes it ideal for travel, only bring the belt and you have a comfortable and quick assembled weight belt on hand, no need to fumble with threading a conventional webbing belt. Weights won't shift like on a webbing belt either! Belt also has two attachment points for accessories a D-ring and gate snap clip. Belt uses an impact resistant plastic and corrosion proof buckle.

Belts will accept hard block or soft weight shot pouches. The belts pockets are sewn directly to 2" (5 cm) nylon webbing and is available in 4 weight capacities and waist sizes.
