Factory-direct neck training head harnesses manufactured in Sialkot, Pakistan. Nylon construction with neoprene padding, high-grade steel chain and D-shackles. Available in two models: with and without under-chin strap and padding. Full OEM and private label manufacturing for fitness brands worldwide.
Head harnesses are a specialist product within the gym accessories market — they serve a defined niche of serious strength athletes who include direct neck training in their program. This includes combat sports athletes (boxers, wrestlers, MMA fighters) who develop neck strength for safety and performance, American football players training for collision resistance, and dedicated strength training enthusiasts targeting neck hypertrophy.
Avant-Garde Sports manufactures head harnesses in Sialkot, Pakistan using nylon webbing for the harness framework, neoprene padding at the forehead and crown for comfort during loaded neck movements, and high-grade steel chain with D-shackles for weight plate attachment. We produce two configurations: a standard model and a model with under-chin strap and additional padding for enhanced stability under heavier loads.
Both models are available for full OEM and private label manufacturing with custom colorways, logo embroidery, and branded retail packaging.

Common Questions
Head Harnesses Manufacturing FAQ
What is a head harness used for in strength training?
A head harness is a neck training accessory worn on the head with a hanging chain to attach weight plates. It is used to perform weighted neck flexion and extension exercises, building neck strength and thickness. Neck training is important for combat sports athletes, American football players, and general strength training enthusiasts.
What materials are used in head harness manufacturing?
Head harnesses are manufactured using nylon webbing for the main harness structure, with neoprene padding on the headband and forehead pad for comfort during use. Hardware includes high-grade steel chain for weight attachment and D-shackles for connecting the chain to the harness.
What is the difference between head harnesses with and without under-chin straps?
A head harness with an under-chin strap provides additional stability and a more secure fit during neck training, particularly for heavier loads. The under-chin strap prevents the harness from shifting forward during neck extension exercises. The model without a chin strap is simpler, lighter, and suits moderate neck training loads.
Can Avant-Garde Sports manufacture head harnesses under a private label?
Yes. Full private label manufacturing is available for head harnesses in both configurations. Customization includes colorway, embroidered or woven logo, neoprene padding color, chain length and finish, and branded retail packaging.
