More Praise for Best Belts

[danradin]

Just wanted to add to the canon of praise for Best Belts. I received my red suede Athlete (10mm) single-prong belt yesterday and wore it to train today.

At $78, you're getting a made-to-order product of uncompromising quality. I've seen $200+ belts and this is literally of comparable quality, and much softer – and therefore easier to use – right from the manufacturer. I literally could've used the belt with no break-in, and as it is, I've probably spent a total of ten minutes breaking it in.

I received an email from Jackie Best confirming my order, stating the date the belt would be completed, and the dates I should expect to receive it. On the first date of the range in her email, the belt arrived. That kind of accountability and doing-what-you-say-you-will-do is almost as valuable as the quality of the product to me.

I recommend Best Belts for all of your belting needs without reservation.

Plus one! Even though my 10mm black athlete single prong is too big I keep drilling holes in it cause I love the thing so much.

Great product MADE in the USA in North Carolina. Great people great product.

I am going to go with these guys when I buy one, so the Athlete model is the way to go?

[danradin]

Unless you're an advanced powerlifter with elite numbers or very short, then yes.

Ok, thanks.

Just want to add my own praise of the product - the belt is fantastic. Durable, custom made, and great customer service. I asked Best Belts about adding holes and Jackie told me I could send it back with $10 to cover shipping and they'd punch more holes in it for free. I wish I would have bought one when I first started lifting. Buy one and you won't be sorry! Mine is the same color as the one in the pic but it's a double prong. I thought they look cooler, that's why I chose it, but I've also since heard that with the double they'll last longer because all the stress isn't on one hole.

That line worked for me once, too!

Waiting on my double prong athlete and the 3" for the wife!

I just got mine earlier, chocolate brown color which is fucking rad.

My mom, who doesn't know anything about lifting, was amazed at how beautiful this work of art is! She might hang it in the wall or something for decor if I'm not using it (srs) hahaha

It was also pretty broke in (athlete) considering it's my first time using it.

A tip on sizing though: if you're pretty lean, measure with a bloat preferably after a buffet or something HAHA...That way, you'd be able to maximize the sizing if for some reason you decided to become a SHW, or have very stout friends that you want to lend it to. Plus, you'd be bloated at meets if you do things right hehehe

For it to fit right for me, I need to use the 2nd smallest hole LOL
