Customers like the thickness of the weightlifting belt. They mention that it's thick around the whole belt and not just the back part. They also appreciate the 4 stitches and the thick leather.

Great support, just what I was looking for.
I've been using this belt for the past couple months and it works perfectly. At first I ordered a small and I had it on the last notch so I exchanged it for a medium.. but turns out I was wearing it WAY to lose so now it's on the tightest one. Moral of the story is look into how tight you're supposed to have them and everything will work out:)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great value delivered by solid belt, but don't forget to break it in first.

I went with this belt that was less expensive than many of its competitors in the powerlifting belt class, and was pleasantly surprised. The belt is well stitched, composed of four layers of leather: two thick hard inner layers, and two more suede-like thinner outer layers, with a total thickness I measured at .420"+/-.02 (>10.5mm). The stitching is double and well placed, with thread similar to the inner strands of 550 cord, probably nylon. The buckle has two prongs and a roller. If you are not familiar with lifting belts, your initial impression may be that the belt is too stiff, uncomfortable, hard to get the loose excess tail to bend into the retention loop, etc. but these are characteristics of essentially all new lifting belts. The belt is stiff to provide the right type of support. Breaking the belt in, such as by throwing it over a chinup bar and running it back and forth along its length with high hanging force, can greatly accelerate break-in, increasing comfort. I was very pleased and this will more than suffice while saving me money.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great belt, needs breaking in.
Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2016
Size: MediumVerified Purchase
I bought this for my SO who was starting to stall on his squat because he didn't have enough support. He usually wears 32' pants and I bought him the M despite some conflicting sizing reviews. If you are wearing this belt the right way I believe that the sizing chart is spot on. The belt MUST NOT be tight, tight, you should still be able to fit your flat hand between the belt and your belly. Lifting belts are for SUPPORT and not for sucking everything in. He wears this on the 3rd set of holes from the first holes at the top of the belt and there's not much flap left over at all, so it doesn't get in his way.

My natural waist is 27' and I was able to fit this (M) all the way on the last holes, unfortunately there was a lot of belt left over on the side so definitely not wearable for me specifically since the leftover flap would get in the way. If I bought this for me I would buy it in an S.

The belt comes really stiff and you can tell it needs some breaking in; as soon as we got it I rolled it up and stuffed it in between some books so it wouldn't move, that did help loosen it a little bit. After two lifting sessions (and it being rolled up in between those sessions) the belt is a lot easier to put on and take off, although still a little bit stiff. My SO saw an improvement the very first day he put the belt on. Recommend.

4.0 out of 5 stars good product
Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2010
Size: LargeVerified Purchase
a 4 inch wide belt that is 4 inch all the way around is perfect for weightlifting. This belt is 10mm thick, leather and has 2 prongs in the buckle. the product description says that it is single prong, the photo is double prong, the sales lady emailed me saying that it is single prong but thats not what i got. I am still happy with the double prong though, but it makes it slightly harder to get on and off during workouts. When you just did a heavy set, it can be annoying.
The leather is made up of 3 layers glued and stitched together. I have used it for 4 months now and no visible wear and tear yet. Looks like it will last me a few years.
A suggestion for buyers is to break in the belt in the initial week so that it conforms to your waist that much better.

Belt is definitely a good piece of equipment to use in the weight room. This one is inexpensive and exactly what is required. Good value.

PS - Seems like Ader Sporting now has edited the description and it says "double prong". Thanks for listening to your customers.

5.0 out of 5 stars IGNORE THE REVIEWERS TALKING ABOUT WAIST SIZE
Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2016
Size: LargeVerified Purchase
Most importantly, ignore all the reviewers that suggest "my waist is blah so I bought blah size belt". That is not how a powerlifting belt works. You need to look up the instructions for measuring yourself for one of these belts. This belt does not go around your waist. You could wear size 30 pants but have a gut that makes your measurement for this belt in the 40s. I'm 6'4, 247 and right now at around 12-14% body fat. My pants size is 36. I measured out for this belt at 38'. I bought the large and I use the second to smallest holes. I could have bought a medium and been almost to the end but I chose to have it a little big rather than a little small.

This is not a 13mm powerlifting belt so don't expect professional specs, but I am not a competitive lifter nor will I ever be. This is a nice, sturdy 10mm belt that was a huge improvement over the basic, tapered Golds belt that I was using before. It did not require a break-in period but I did use a sanding block and some 150 grit paper to sand the edge off of the inside because it was sharp and digging in to me and leaving ugly bruises. The more I use it the easier it gets to get on an off (you may need a friend to help initially) and it appears to be sturdy. I'm very happy with it considering how inexpensive it is compared to pro level belts. If you need to step up from the beginner taper belt but are not committed enough (yet) to buy a $100+ pro belt this is an excellent in between. The only regret I have is that it's a 10mm. I can now see the benefit of a 13mm but I will still be using this for at least several years.
