Anyone know a cheap place to get a singlet? Pullum has 2, each are £46 though, which seems a little pricey.

I got my one from here (£39 for a Blue Titan one). They also stock a weird and wonderful range that goes for £9.99, I think thats a bit of a "get what you are given" type of deal though.

Can't understand how the branded ones are so expensive. Those ones for a tenner only go up to 115kg so no good for me. Could do with just a plain one, not bothered about it being Titan or Metal or anything.

get one off inzer. Even with international shipping it's about £25

Or buy a wrestling one from somewhere.

Or maybe even a rowing one.

Haha, the 9.99 range are awesome. Get one.

Failing that, I got this (http://www.specialistsports.com/shop/detail.asp?espref=841&stockref=313175-01&page=1&dept=WEIG&type=WETX&ud1=WECL&ud2=&ud3=) one for 15 quid. It's close to a year old and I wear it as shorts most training sessions and it's still going strong. They go up to XXL, seeing as they're for OL and therefore should(?) cater for SHWs that might be ok on you?

Edit- I have a wrestling one as well, but that got ripped to pieces fast by the bar.

Just checked their website; it's only $33 for the singlet but shipping seems to be another $80+!!!

Annoyingly, they seem to have run out of the £15 suits on that link Jon, only the £40 ones left. Looks like I'm just going to have to fork out. PL is turning out quite expensive with membership, entrance fees, singlet, belt...

That second one should do the trick, I'll keep my eyes on that and try for a sneaky last minute bid. Didn't think of eBay for new stuff actually, a browse is in order. Ta.

On the plus side, it'll probably push even more people towards lifting raw.

Sloth

all this shit is lame.

to expand sports you need affiliates and assitance from all who offer their hand. all lifting sports are never gona get anywhere, this bullshit is expansive in all fields.

They've probably been banned from the IPF as the bench shirts don't come with foam pads attached...

Might have to wait until the comp - it was a bloody mission getting it on! Not much space in the neck bit to get my shoulders through, needed the missus to yank the straps up like a squat suit! Was fine once I was actually in though.

**** that man - dont worry, I'll start a fed where lifting in posing trunks is mandatory. We'll call it the "PBPF" - Pretty Boy Powerlifting Federation. Raw fed, except for socks on the deadlift, which must be pink.

I was looking for Chemerekin's squat numbers yesterday after someone sent me a vid of him basically power cleaning 240 and catching it in his hands. The 3rd result was....

Back on topic...

Anyone bought an Inzer singlet had to return it and get the next one up?? There a lot of difference in size?

Vinny sent me his inzer one, xxl and is exactly the same as my xxl APT one, (manufacturer is MatMan). A metal one will set me back £50 but im considering the next size up of inzer at nearly half of that from Mr Bolton.

A singlet is a singlet; why bother spending more on a brand? eBay is your friend, bag yourself a bargain.

Sloth
14-05-2010, 20:57
im on about sizes though mate, i know the matman xxl is a wee bit tight, which is why i want to know about the sizes. not bothered by the name, in fact the US have some awsome looking camo ones, lol.
