The Aquabats! Wiki

The Aquabats uniform would not be complete without The Power Belt. The Power Belt has changed slightly throughout the years but has stayed an iconic piece of fashion seemingly based upon the belts seen in the Japanese "kamen rider" series specifically the "typhoon driver"

"The Fury Of The Aquabats" Belt[]

FURY Belt

The first power belt worn by The Aquabats. The belts worn by the band were made of Naugahyde Vinyl and were made by Paul Frank. The belts were often Vinyl on Vinyl (as opposed to being printed). A variation with blinking red eyes on the bat can be seen in the music video for Super Rad!.

The belts of this design that were sold were also made by Paul Frank, but were printed on white vinyl.

The "FEOD" Belt[]

FEOD Belt

This belt was worn around the release and tour of The Aquabats! vs. The Floating Eye of Death!. It was also made by Paul Frank and was vinyl sewn to vinyl (although the bat was printed). This design was never sold to the public.

The Aquabats Charge Belt[]

CHARGE Belt

This belt design was introduced in the early 2000s. This new design was a complete change from the previous belt with a new shape, new color and new shapes. This design also had an extension(not pictured) on it to accommodate the ever-growing girth of the band. The maker of this belt is unknown.

The band started to wear these power belts in 2002 and wore them through 2012.

There were two small batches of this design made for fans. The first batch was sold at shows in 2007 and was known for being "messed up". While the print was accurate, the belt was cut in the old wrestling belt design. The second batch was sold in 2008 and was cut correctly and only differed from the band's in that it did not have a border. Both batches were very small and seem to be harder to find than the older Paul Frank belts.

The "Super Show!" Belts[]

This belt deasign was introduced in The Super Show, and the final version has been worn live since. These belts were made of layers of sewn vinyl and were custom fit to each member's girth. This design was the first design to have utility pockets, although the pick pocket was the only functioning pocket.

Belt 1[]

TASS1 Belt

This belt was worn by the band in episodes 1 and 4. As well as worn by the teddy bear in episode 10.

Belt 2[]

TASS2 Belt

This Belt was worn by the band in episodes 1 and 5.

Belt 3[]

TASS3 Belt

This belt was worn by the belt for most of season 1 and all of season 1.5 and 2.

This design was made into a consumer version made by Aleeda. Although it's not the same exact design, it's more of a cheap costume interpretation.




The "Kooky Spooky" Belts[]

This belt design was worn in addition to skeleton costumes at the 2020 The Aquabats! Kooky Spooky Halloween Party. The belts were designed by cadets Don Babcock (DarthDono) and Joe Luna (JoeLuna33), heavily influenced by the belts Paul Frank made for the Fury of The Aquabats! anniversary show. 5 belts were made by Joe Luna and sent to the band as a gift. In place of the normal Lil Bat on the front, the glow in the dark skeleton face Lil Bat from the Kooky Spooky....In Stereo album cover was used. No replicas of this belt have been offered to the public to date but 1 was given away at the fan produced Aquabanian Wrestling Federation stream.

The Aquabats also wore these same belts during the 2020 Kooky Kristmas Party live stream. The Skeleton bat was covered up by an overlay of a gold belt buckle with the "Santa Lil Bat".
