The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less.

Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
Finding a belt in a genuine XL size narrows the field fast, and the RDX WPB-RD-NEW-IT fills that gap at $44.99 with a thick 10mm leather construction in black.
That price sits between the Harbinger 360982 ($49.99) and the Dip Dip1 or GORUCK PHB-0101U, both around $35.00, putting it in the middle of this comparison's price range. Its 4.3-star average across 148 reviews, though, is the lowest of any belt discussed here, trailing the Harbinger 360982's 4.4 stars, the Lever belt-01's 4.4 stars, and every other option by at least a tenth of a star.
For a lifter who specifically needs XL sizing and a thick 10mm leather profile, the RDX belt still fills a real gap that the Medium and One Size belts in this comparison do not. But buyers without that specific size need should weigh the lower rating against alternatives like the Harbinger 28900, which costs less and rates higher at 4.7 stars across a much larger review base.
Pros
- True XL sizing, filling a gap not covered by the Medium or One Size belts here
- 10mm leather thickness for a substantial build
- Priced at $44.99, less than the Lever belt-01's $69.99
- 148 reviews provide a reasonable, if not large, sample
- In stock and available now
Cons
- 4.3-star average is the lowest rating in this entire comparison
- 0+ units bought last month shows no recent demand signal
- 148 reviews trail the thousands posted by the Harbinger models
- Costs more than budget options like the Hip HTB-0001-B at $13.47

Performance notes
A 10mm leather belt like the RDX WPB-RD-NEW-IT is on the thicker end of the belts in this comparison, which typically means more rigidity and bracing support for heavier compound lifts, similar in concept to the Harbinger 360982's leather build but in a larger XL size. That thickness can make the belt feel stiffer to break in than thinner nylon or neoprene alternatives like the Dip Dip1. The XL size specifically addresses lifters who do not fit the Medium or One Size options that make up most of this list. At $44.99, it is priced in the middle of this comparison, above the nylon and neoprene budget belts but below the Lever belt-01's $69.99.
What buyers say
A 4.3-star average across 148 reviews is the lowest rating of any belt in this comparison, sitting just under the 4.4-star marks posted by the Lever belt-01 and Harbinger 360982. The review count is modest but not tiny, large enough to suggest the rating reflects a real pattern rather than a handful of reviews. Combined with a 0+ figure for units bought last month, the data suggests a belt with steady but unremarkable interest rather than a standout performer, at least by the numbers available here.
