My local academy has some decent weight belts, but most of my athletic stuff comes from walmart. I need some lifting shoes though.

    I got my belt from Inzer. It's a 10mm Lever Belt, best I've ever had.

    Got my shoes from Rogue (Do-Win's). Belt from Inzer (10mm lever belt). Also picked up a singlet from Inzer - you would only need that for competition.

    13mm belt from inzer - pain in the *kitten* to break in, but definitely worth it
    shoes - vibram Komodo, but I am wanting to try the adipower's just to get more comfortable on squats

    If you want to order directly from Inzer make sure to call them to make sure they have what you want in stock, or else it's going to take a while.

    I just wear plain old Converse All-Star high tops for lifting shoes.

    Other than that, straps are Spud Inc. from southcarolinabarbell.com. Haven't bothered trying using anything else.
