All About the ProFORMANCE™ Belt

Built for All-Day Tool Belt Comfort and Support

The ProFORMANCE™ Tool Belt Platform introduces a new hybrid approach to tool belt support. By combining the Badger performance liner with the strength of the Occidental 2" Leather Work Belt, this system delivers improved weight distribution, mobility, and long-day comfort without sacrificing the durability Occidental is known for.

The contoured performance liner helps spread the load of a fully equipped tool belt across your hips and lower back, while the leather work belt provides the structure and stability needed to carry tools all day on the jobsite.

Built with American-made closed-cell foam padding and a Dri-Lex® moisture-wicking lining, the ProFORMANCE™ platform maintains its shape, resists compression, and helps keep heat and sweat under control during long workdays.

Designed to work seamlessly with Occidental tool bag systems and suspenders, the ProFORMANCE™ platform creates a comfortable, stable foundation for a wide range of professional tool belt setups.

Made in the USA.

  • Hybrid belt system combining Badger performance design with Occidental leather craftsmanship
  • Contoured performance liner distributes tool weight evenly for all-day comfort
  • Dri-Lex® moisture-wicking lining keeps the belt cooler and more comfortable during long workdays
  • Premium 2" leather work belt delivers dependable torso support and long-term durability
  • Closed-cell foam padding maintains cushioning without compressing over time
  • Four suspender attachment points compatible with all Occidental suspenders
  • Sizes: SM – XXL
  • Made in the USA

Leather Gear Care

Our leather is custom-tanned to handle tough, outdoor conditions. However, tough gear still deserves smart upkeep.

  • Brush off jobsite grit daily, and wipe down with a damp rag when things get muddy.
  • Occasionally shake out the debris from inside bags and pouches.
  • For deeper grime, use mild soap and water—no bleach, no harsh solvents. Then let it dry naturally.
  • For occasional cleaning maintenance—about once a year—use saddle soap, a leather cleaner, or mild soap and warm water. Then apply a small amount of non-oil-based leather conditioner. We recommend our Rugged Service Cream.
  • Store dry, out of direct sun, and your Occidental Leather gear will outlast the job.

* Avoid oil-based products, as they can weaken stitching and shorten the life of the leather.

* Always wipe off mud, concrete, or other drying compounds with a damp cloth before it dries, as these materials can draw out the leather’s natural oils

  • All orders ship from our workshop in northern California within 1-2 working days after you place your order.
  • We'll send you a tracking number by email once your order ships.

It's really comfortable and easy to clean

I would like for my gear to stay nice longer, so I like when it's easy enough to clean. Heat index was well over 100 and I didn't have to worry about the belt contributing to any sort of heat rash. Big, wide, sturdy, keeps your gear in one place. I haven't riveted or clipped any of my bags in place. The friction of the leather on leather, and the webbing in between sections of belt keeps everything in place as soon as I unclip.

Can easily drop the belt without tool pouches falling off.

Should have bought this years ago!

I’m a window cleaner and the window cleaning industry doesn’t build a good belt. This one has been a game changer! Absolutely the best belt for my trade.

Comfort belt

I recommend buying the comfort belt with the framer bags. I spend a lot of my work days going up and down stairs/ scaffolding so having all my tools with me is a must. Buying the comfort belt allows me to hook my shoulder strap suspenders which puts the weight of my bags on my shoulder verses my back and hips. Love the quality from occidental leather.

Proformance Belt (brown/black) Large

First of all, this belt looks good. You gotta look good on the job and this will definitely make you look like you know what you’re doing. That’s really all that matters. Jk. The fit is great and I like the built in D rings since I am a suspender guy. I am using this set up with the black fatlip bags and I can’t say enough good things about the fit and comfort. I’ve used everything Occidental has for hip pads except for the newer beefed up belt supports they have now, which look awesome but I chose the Proformance belt because it looked more flexible and manageable for my immediate needs. My bags sit in perfect position and don’t move around my belt due to the positioning of the belt loops my 2” leather belt is fed through on the support pad. The support is just the right amount of padding without being to stiff, and sits perfectly on my lower back, semi high on the hips. Occidental never disappoints and are the kings of the construction bag world. They are expensive, but these are made for the real professional tradesmen who know what quality is. If you decide to invest in a quality set of bags by Occidental, you’re probably a true craftsman who cares about his work, his name, and delivers quality production and solid results. These aren’t for the hackers or the half assers. Keep up the great work fellas. There is nothing that comes close to Occidental.

Back saver belt

Wearing bags all day they get heavy, with this belt it distributes that weight a little nicer and keeps the weight off the hips. It was a great purchase for me and if you also have some hip and back pain this belt is for you

Nearly Perfect

This is a great design and the combination of nylon and leather that I have been hoping for. The only thing I am disappointed about is the quality of this new black leather doesn't compare to the old red latigo that I have had on my old occidental belts and pouches. Seems like a different grade of leather and only time will tell if it will hold up as well. But, the belt pad seems tough and if the outer leather belt does fail, it could be replaced down the road.

Best belt

I’ve worn many different belts to support my carpenter bags, but this combination of leather, wide padding and rings for suspenders is a game changer…I use the Occidental light suspender system which are lighter and far easier to adjust…it definitely is a back saver plus I can continue to use my Occidental Light bags while getting close to 65….
