ABOUT OUR PARTNERSHIP WITH ONYX

Already in December 2017, Max Lang and Eric Schneidenbach met the founder of ONYX Straps during the World Championships in Anaheim, USA. Since then Max has been using these lifting straps with full conviction.
Founded by Danny Ear in Los Angeles, the company specialized in the production of handmade leather wraps and straps.

Since 2019 ONYX Straps is also an official supplier of USA Weightlifting and their products are used by many top American athletes.
We are very pleased to be the official and exclusive distributor for Europe with immediate effect.

STRAP GUIDE

Find the best strap for you

Lifting Straps come in all fabrics, sizes, and styles.
Lifting straps made of leather are the most comfortable option, as they avoid chafing and calluses on the wrist that can occur with other materials. Another advantage of leather straps is their durability, because they last for several years. While the leather will stretch slightly with use, it will not fray due to the knurling of the barbell like other fabrics. Straps made of cotton or other non-leather materials can be broken after 6 to 12 months.

ONYX CLOTH STRAPS

Even though the advantages of leather in lifting straps predominate, Onyx also offers a cloth strap. Especially for vegans a real alternative to leather straps. Onyx does not rely on cotton, like most manufacturers but makes its HEMP Straps from hemp webbing. Why? Because it is three times more resistant than cotton and is also naturally antimicrobial.

ONYX LEATHER STRAPS

Onyx lifting straps are available in 3 different strengths. Depending on whether you are a beginner or advanced/professional, there are different models to choose from.

Leather is usually measured in terms of ounces. One ounce equals 1/64th of an inch thickness. Thus, a weight of 7 to 8 oz. means the leather is 7/64th to 8/64th of an inch (0,28 – 0,32 mm) thickness. 

Care: Genuine leather requires care to protect it from sweat and the harsh mechanical effects of training.

It is recommended to occasionally use 2-3 drops of ONYX OIL on the outside with a dry cloth at an interval of about 2 months.

7-8 oz. (0,28 – 0,32 mm) Straps

Suitable for advanced and especially professional athletes who regularly lift the heaviest loads.

5-6 oz. (0,2 – 0,24 mm) Straps

The most common strap thickness. Suitable for almost all athletes lifting light to heavy loads. If you aren’t sure which thickness to get, his is the one for you. Comes in the largest variety of color and texture options.

3-4 oz. (0,1 – 0,15 mm) Straps – The narrowest strap thickness, best suited for athletes moving light to medium loads.

WRAP GUIDE

Find the best wrap for you

Onyx wrist wraps are available in “low top” (narrow), “low rider” (narrow) and “high top” (wide). The three types differ in the number of leather layers and the width, i.e. the area they cover on the wrist.

Low-rider and high-tops are made of two, rather than one, layers of leather compared to low-tops. with soft suede that grips your skin to avoid slipping.

It is recommended to occasionally use 2-3 drops of ONYX OIL on the outside with a dry cloth at an interval of about 2 months.

LEVEL 4

This oiled and vegetable-tanned material starts out very stiff but becomes softer over time.

LEVEL 3

Balanced wrist wrap made of supple leather with the appropriate portion of support.

LEVEL 2

The wearing comfort of this leather is comparable to a fabric wrap. From the beginning, this leather nestles directly to your wrist.

The FEEL360 technology developed in the own research laboratory ensures pleasant wearing comfort and good moisture wicking without odor on all trails.

Crucial to the outstanding functionality of the sock and stocking models is the FEEL360 technology developed in the in-house “SHRED Lab” laboratory. This regulates moisture transport, counteracts odor and makes the material durable. Due to the optimal composition of hydrophobic and hydrophilic fibers, the yarn wicks away moisture particularly effectively.

The material mix in combination with a silver ion finish inhibits the growth of odor-causing bacteria. High-quality twisted yarns ensure durability, shape retention and thus lasting wearing comfort.

Butter Blend™ is a fiber innovation from Stance derived from sustainable raw materials that features superior softness found nowhere else.
