Have adjusted the lever 3 times now, twice bigger once smaller. I haven't found it to be a problem. If I am having a fat day I can always just clip the first half only so it has a bit more slack before I have to search for a flat-head. Personal preference I guess.

Buckle looks better with jeans, sleeveless t-shirt and shiny blue shoes.

At the gym yesterday a few guys asked some questions about my shiny belt. When I told them how much it was they didn't believe me... they were paying £100 from pullum for the same thing. Told them it was not leather but still IPF approved and they didn't mind, so I think you'll be getting a few orders

Sorry folks, just saw this! Talyn - Awesome. Had a couple of orders for them this week, so might have been your homies. Every belt you encourage the sale of saves one cow!  Shellie - Definitely have them small enough. Probably best with a Medium or Small buckle belt. Best thing to do is measure round your petite mid-section where the belt would go (not round the waist) and I can check the sizings! Hayden - Remember a belt going down under earlier in the week, thought it must be on it's way to one of the MVS LEGENDS and I was right! Free belt - will feel even better!

Thanks Buzz, that would be 24 inches. Wish I knew you did weightlifting shoes before I bought the ironworks.

My new lever belt arrived today, talk about fast shipping! Awesome quality, only got to try it with squats so far but feels amazing, can't wait to try it on the deads.
