Yeah, this kind of gear exists in regular DnD, and I'm not all too concerned about them. They're really a non-issue.

Solasta has them, but they require attunement there. There's another similar item called the Belt of Dwarvenkind that sets your CON to 19, though you end up with a 50% chance to grow a beard after you take a long rest, which stopped a lot of people from using it in Solasta (and it'll probably do the same thing in BG3).

The utility of such items falls off a cliff as you progress and find better accessories, and building around their existence is basically shooting yourself in the foot.
