Heavy duty and well constructed

Comes with a buckle unattached and I didn't even look for instructions seeing it is that easy to figure out. Might need to tighten my settings soon but nice, thick, heavy material and looks very good.

Great budget belt

I have been lifting for years and have avoided using a lifting belt until recently. I had it in my head that I needed to be able to lift all-natural. After enough YouTube videos talking about the benefits if properly utilized I succumbed and went searching. I found this belt at a quarter of the price of the big names out there and have enjoyed it. It just gives you a firm hug to brace against while you try and pick up the heaviest thing you can find. The latch is very nice to release the hug, while you let the blood circulate back to your head after the said lift.
