Hi, Has anyone here tried a Grip Power Pads lifting belt? They have them specifically for women, and wanted advice before I purchase one. Thanks!

    Yep, it's Pink. Most belts are made by a 3rd party company and the sellers label is stamped on.

    Maybe some bedazzling too. Then everyone will know this is a woman's-- or fabulous human being's--belt.

    Since we're on the topic. I live in Canada and we have no stores in my town that sell quality belts, what's a good site to order a lever belt from for $100-200?

    ER Canada or Inner Strength. Mike and Rheae are both awesome.

    Both keep belts in stock and will get them to you quickly

    Late to the party, but Inzer gets my vote. I just replaced my cheap Strength Shop economy lever with an Inzer lever and the difference in quality is lightyears. Its worth spending every extra penny on powerlifting equipment to get the best stuff. Your lifts will thank you.

    Alright Inzer it is. Now, purple or black fokes? Actually found a $30 price difference between the two sites which is great.

    Purple or black? Ask yourself... will it match my overall outfit.... :p

    Also, those new SBD belts are really well made too. That lever is so beautifully tooled. Had a chance to peak at one at my last meet and I am impressed with them too.

    Well purple would probably go better with my Watermelon shirt. Okay one last one. What's a good fair priced lifting shoe with a 3/4-1" heel

    purple is nice, but when ordering from inzer and most other site, the custom colors are made to order and can sometimes take a long time like several months to ship. But black is usually in stock and can ship right away. So depending on how soon you want it can help decide what color. And a good fair priced lifting shoe is converse chucks.

    There are Adidas Adipros, Nike Romoloes, and a ton of other choices. I have Reeboks Crossfit Lifters 2.0 because they were the only shoes I could try on at a local shoe stores. I've got two different size feet and the short one pronates inward. Be prepared to spend around $100+ for a good pair of Olympic shoes.

    I wear pendlay do wins. They don't have the largest variety of colors and they may not be the best but they are definitely a cost efficient lifter and I dig them!

    I recently purchased a pair of Sabo deadlift shoes and while I do like them, they were a bit small on my stupid right foot. I should have gone two sizes up. I could exchange them, but those shoes should be a little tighter so I am hoping my right foot stretch the toe-box area out a little, otherwise they fit fine.

    Big plus, they they match my SBD singlet and knee sleeves. lol
