Would this belt be both comfortable and useful when wearing it all day? I need a lifting belt for work, not the gym. Will it hold up for 8+ hours?

It will definitely hold up for the whole day. The Velcro on it is very good quality and overall it's very comfortable. I used other belts in the past and found most of them too wide and uncomfortable, this one is narrower and fits well.

It would hold up for 8 hr wear as it is very well constructed. I just don't think it would be comfortable. It is made to be worn higher around the waist, more at your belly button to support your abdominals and hold your posture while lifting not actually your back. I wear it for deadlifting, squats ect. and I can't wait to get it off as soon as I finish my lift since for it to work properly it has to be very tightly worn. This may not be the belt you are looking for.

well, I am not too sure about wearing it for 8 hours straight as I only use it when I dead lift around 200 lbs and even then I take the belt off after each set. it is comfortable and offers super great support. Since it is adjustable in size, I can't see it not being beneficial to you while you work, but I cannot say yes or no to your question. i hope this helps.

I wear mine to lift, so not sure. But it's so cheap why not try it. It would be more comfortable than a leather one.

I think it depends on your shape. It seems to stay put when I walk around, but I think if I did a lot of reaching and squatting, it might ride up a bit. I think the ones with suspenders are made for that type of environment. But I might wait for an answer from some on who has tried it in your environment

Definitely put this on just for pumping. I wore it for a couple hours while power pumping, but that was while hiding out in bed. Otherwise, it isn't comfortable to wear all day, nor does it provide support. It works great for pumping, though!

I wear it all day and it seems to go well. My experience tells me that as long as you don't wear it over sleeping, it should be fine.

Hello, I'm 5'2", and this belt is comfortable for me. You can adjust the weights to your comfort level. Hope this information is helpful.

I use it daily for work and have not had any problems as of yet. The pattern doesn't even have any wear to it...but it would also depending on what your carrying. If its overstuffed with books and notebooks, it might be different. Best of luck :-)

I have owned the Giant Dual Fit for 5 years and have never experienced any problem with it. I use it for 90 to 120 minutes every day at different speeds. I do have the belt drive and after reading your post I checked the condition of the belt and it is showing very slight wear on the edge. I am satisfied with the bike and will use it as long as my health allows. I am 66 years old and consider myself in good shape. Heart is strong, Dr. says the bike has greatly added to that. Good luck in your search.

This heavy duty belt supports your back, keeping it in place and safe for your lift. Without it your putting your self at risk of being injured as I did once, trying to prove that I was strong. I have my regrets but I'm still able to lift, so now I make sure I use this Belt. It definitely works and 180 lbs I think your pushing it. Anything over 100 lbs you should definitely use the belt. I know the right posture helps when lifting but why take chances with your health. Your in the right direction for asking, keep doing more research and learn from other peoples mistakes.

Oh yea, most definitely. The most I've deadlifted in this is #300, and it didn't budge. The velcro is pretty damn heavy duty. It's not as supportive as an Inzer belt, but the money, it's definitely a great deal.

I don't think so. I don't wear this while I work out, because I want every muscle to be able do their job!! I wear this belt at night over a T-shirt while I am sleeping, but NOT TIGHT!! and It works for me.

If you wore a loose shirt or tunic over it, you probably could wear it at work! It might feel bulky though; you could always wear it for part of the day and take it off :^)

Hi Jessica, this chair should be comfortable for 8+ hours a day, but if you have back issues or need additional support we would recommend looking for a chair that has adjustable lumbar support. This might be a better option for more back support because it has more ergonomic adjustabilities: http://www.247workspaceexpress.com/RTA-9105-ERGONOMIC-OFFICE-CHAIR/dp/B00CEZ7Q3I Please don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any more questions!

I wear mine on skin and it stays right wear I place it. I haven't worn it over clothing yet, so I can't speak to whether it stays in place that way or not. I have LOVED this belt, and if I had known of it 1 1/2 years sooner, I would be $1000s richer w/o having spent it in P.T., Chiro, pain management injections, etc., all of which didn't do anything to help my problem. Best wishes to you and I sincerely hope you get as much if not more relief from the belt as I did!!!!

I lift weights and do mostly all the machines at the gym and wen i tell u this belt stays snug, not loosen like most other belts, i don't gym without it, u will feel the water rolling down from ur stomach while lifting, this belt defiantly holds well&#10071;&#10071;&#10071;

Yes. After a couple hours it might start become a little uncomfortable and sweaty, but can be worn all day. I myself use it most of the day.
