Our best-selling Vader Straps are the product that helped build the Onyx name. Since the very beginning, they've been trusted by Olympians, National Champions, World Team members, and thousands of athletes who demand uncompromising performance every time they step up to the bar. Handcrafted from premium pebbled chrome-tanned leather, these closed-loop leather lifting straps are exceptionally soft right out of the box, requiring virtually no break-in period while remaining strong enough for years of heavy pulls and demanding training. The teardrop design provides a quick, consistent setup while reducing grip fatigue during high-volume workouts and maximal lifts. Ideal for Olympic weightlifting, bodybuilding, CrossFit, powerlifting, and heavy dumbbell and barbell strength exercises—including snatches, cleans, clean pulls, snatch pulls, Romanian deadlifts, shrugs, rows, and deadlifts—the Vader Straps help you stay connected to the bar so you can focus on generating power, refining technique, and lifting heavier with confidence. Built by reps and proven through years of training and competition, they're the straps athletes reach for when performance matters most.

Care Tips:
For optimal care, it is highly recommended to let all leather items get some fresh air. Avoid stashing them in shipping bags – instead, hang them on the outside of your bag using one of our bag straps or tuck them away inside your bag with one of our mesh bags. Using our Onyx Oil every now and then is also advised to keep them in top shape. This helps shield them from the negative effects of chalk, sweat, and the wear and tear of training.
WRIST WRAPS
| HIGH TOPS SIZE* | WRIST MEASUREMENT (inches) |
| Small | 5.5" - 6.5" |
| Medium | 6" - 7.5" |
| Large | 7" - 8.5"+ |
*There is sizing flexibility between the wraps depending on how much wrist coverage you want. If you want more of the curvature up the back of your hand, go with the Medium or Large. If you want a minimal feel at your wrist with less curvature, go with the Small. The size of curvature on the Medium and Large is the same. If your wrist measurement fits both the Medium and Large, you can purchase either, the Large will have a slightly longer tail than the Medium.

To find your perfect fit follow these instructions below
• Ensure your abs are relaxed and measure your torso around the belly button. Pull measuring tape tight around your torso for a good fit
• Use this measurement to determine where you are closest to the middle of the range
• For example, if you measure 31” opt for a medium not a small as 31" is more central to the medium than the small
