Built for the Grind
Honestly, it’s wild how most lifting gear is either so overbuilt it costs a month’s rent or it’s just cheap, unreliable junk. Valeo kind of kicked off in a garage gym because of that exact frustration. We just wanted something—anything—that could survive a heavy session without the insane markup.
We started making our own belts and gloves, literally putting them through thousands of reps until they stopped failing. We’re still that same team today, just totally obsessed with finding that sweet spot where durability actually meets value. You’ll see our stuff in CrossFit boxes and sketchy garage gyms because it does what it’s supposed to do: it protects your hands and supports your lifts. No celebrity endorsements here. We’d rather put that money into better leather and tighter quality control.
The name? It’s Latin for “to be strong” or “to be well”. It’s basically what we tell each other before a massive set. Whether you’re chasing a 500-pound squat or just pulling your very first deadlift, we make the gear that gets you through it safely. No gimmicks. . . just solid equipment for people who actually show up.
We found out early that the best feedback comes from the 5 a.m. crowd. The ones who know the difference between gear that looks “cool” on Instagram and stuff that actually performs when you’re grinding out that final, ugly rep. Our belts get broken in by powerlifters pushing competition weight, and our gloves survive endless cycles of pull-ups and farmer’s walks.
While other companies chase weird trends or app integration, we just chase longevity. We use thick, vegetable-tanned leather that gets better as it ages. Industrial stitching that won’t blow out on you. It’s old-school craftsmanship for modern training. When you’re under the bar, the only thing that really matters is trust—trust in your strength, and trust in your gear., vegetable-tanned leather that gets better with age, industrial stitching that won’t blow out, and hardware that can handle real load. It’s old-school craftsmanship applied to modern training needs. Because when you’re under the bar, the only thing that matters is trust — trust in your training, trust in your strength, and trust in your gear.

“Finally found a belt that doesn’t dig into my ribs during heavy squats. The 4-inch back support on the Valeo belt gives me the confidence to push my PRs without worrying about my lower back. Worth every penny.”

“These gloves survived 6 months of daily WODs, rope climbs, and bar work. The palm grip is still solid, and my calluses are basically gone. I’ve converted three people at my gym already.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Products come in a full range of sizes from XS to XXL. The sizing tends to run true to standard measurements, though checking the size chart for specific items is recommended. Belt sizes correspond to waist measurements, while gloves follow standard hand circumference guidelines.
Most fabric items can be hand washed in cold water with mild soap and air dried. Leather products benefit from occasional conditioning with appropriate leather care products. Avoiding machine washing and high heat will extend product lifespan significantly.
The equipment works well for all skill levels. Beginners appreciate the support and protection during learning phases, while advanced athletes value the durability during intense training sessions. Each product serves its purpose regardless of athletic ability.
With proper care, most items last 1-2 years of regular training (3-4 times per week). Heavy daily use may reduce this timeframe, while occasional use can extend it considerably. Signs of wear like fraying, loss of elasticity, or compromised padding indicate replacement time.
Many items work across different activities. Weight training belts function well for powerlifting, CrossFit, and general gym work. Training gloves suit weightlifting, pull-ups, and rowing machines. However, specialized sports may require activity-specific equipment for optimal performance.
Most retailers offer 30-day return or exchange policies for unworn items with tags attached. Trying products at home to test fit and comfort before removing tags allows for easy exchanges if sizing adjustments are needed.
