How To Design Your Custom Medals?
This article describes how tournament vendors can customise medals: 1. Determine the type of competition; 2. Determine the shape of
The championship belt first appeared in the sport of boxing, serving as a symbol of honor and a reward for the champion. In other types of competitions, trophies or medals were typically used as prizes.
In 1839, boxing champion Tom Cribb was awarded a silver belt, which is considered the earliest known championship belt in history. By the mid-19th century, championship belts gradually began to replace trophies as the prize for boxing champions.
After the 20th century, professional wrestling also adopted the use of championship belts.
As professional wrestling became more commercialized and its influence expanded, the concept of the championship belt was recognized by other disciplines, such as mixed martial arts, professional boxing, fantasy football, and the NFL. Among these, the WWE and UFC championship belts are the most well-known.
Why Did These Professional Competitions Gradually Start Using Championship Belts?
These competitions are highly competitive, and many of the athletes are larger in size compared to the average person. A medal that appears just the right size in an ordinary person’s hand would look disproportionately small in theirs—much like Shaquille O’Neal holding a small glass of water, which could diminish the grandeur of the event.
Additionally, since boxing matches and similar competitions often take place in dimly lit indoor venues, with spectators seated far from the ring, the need to make the champion immediately recognizable became important. The championship belt, with its larger size and more obvious value compared to a medal, makes it easier for the audience to identify the winner at a glance.
Moreover, the perceived higher value of a championship belt increases the athletes’ desire to win it. As a result, these competitions prefer using larger championship belts, which not only enhance the excitement of the event but also help reduce marketing costs to some extent.
Customization can be divided into full customization and flexible customization. At Peakeen, we offer all types of customization options to accommodate each customer’s budget as much as possible. With flexible customization, you can save on mold costs by having your design printed using our standard molds.
If you want to customize the shape, I highly recommend opting for full customization. This way, you can get a championship belt that exactly matches your design. You can choose any process you like, such as adding gemstones, 3D elements, and more.
Benefits of Customization:
Uniqueness: A fully customized championship belt will have a shape identical to your design. At Peakeen, each custom mold created for a customer can only be reordered by the original customer. We do not use these molds for any other clients.
Branding: Do you want your competition or champion to stand out like a WWE champion? Creating a custom championship belt for your brand will certainly make it shine even brighter.
Leather: Championship belts typically use either genuine leather or PU leather. Genuine leather offers a better feel, while PU leather is more budget-friendly. The choice between these materials depends on your budget.
Metal: For the metal components, we use zinc alloy (by default). This material offers greater malleability, allowing for the perfect rendering of 3D designs or intricate details.
Other Elements: With the advent of new materials like synthetic diamonds, if your budget allows, these can be included in your selection. If you wish to align with an eco-friendly theme, a fabric belt would also be a great choice.
Center Plate Design: The center plate is the most prominent part of the championship belt, making it an ideal spot for your brand’s logo. You can replicate any symbol, text, or pattern you need here.
Belt Edges and Detail Decorations: Around the edges of the center plate, you can design the inclusion of synthetic diamonds or other embellishments to add a touch of luxury to your belt.
Different competitions may require championship belts in various sizes to accommodate the participants.
