I'm starting to actually make serious gains where this cheap Sports Authority belt isn't cutting it for my Squats and Deadlifts any longer. I'm torn between the Titan Texas Belt (Longhorn, 10mm - Lever) and the Inzer 10mm Lever. I was considering even a 13mm Brahma or Inzer but I heard it can really take awhile to break in, and its that much more difficult to deadlift in. I'm set on a 10mm.
Titan Longhorn - I heard the Titan levers are better quality (USA built) than the Inzer, and the leather quality on both the Inzer and Titan are USA high-quality. So would the Titan Longhorn lever one-up the Inzer because of the lever quality? I can also pick one up from LiftingLarge.com in-stock vs horror stories with the Inzer taking forever (even in black color).
What do you guys think?
Thanks!

I have had a Longhorn belt for about one year and love it. I have never used the Inzer belt so I can't really speak on that. The lever on the Longhorn belt is high quality and works great, the leather did break in quite quickly. I was able to pick my belt up at a local gym for a great price brand new, so that help me. If I ever need another belt I will be looking for another Longhorn.

Inzer Lever Belt Master race crew checking in.
I got 10mm. Took 6.5 weeks with custom color.
As far as levers go there is no perfect lever but you'll have good reliable results with all of the major brands. (Read toro and inzer). Can always get a single prong when you start doing 800# squats.

Not that it matters now but for others reading this you can just call Inzer and ask if your size/color is in stock, and then the shipping should not be an issue.
My lever did have one of the teeth break although I believe the Inzer belt (leather) is higher quality than what Titan uses. Either way they are both solid belts and should work just fine. Massive upgrade from a typical sporting goods store belt.Pro Strongman & Former National Champion

I use an Inzer 10mm lever and love it. Here are a couple of things that I learned with mine:
1. Carry whatever tool might be needed to adjust your lever belt...I just keep a short screwdriver in my bag
2. Make very sure that your new belt is positioned Exactly where it needs to be....I was deadlifting from deficit and put mine a touch too high (I thought it felt better with a lower bar height)....result was bruised bottom floating ribs...your new belt isn't going to fold over at the top like a sporting goods store belt
3. Your new belt won't lie about what you have been eating for the Holidays...LOL (You can't use the excuse that you shrunk it in a hot dryer)
Grats on the new belt and let us know how you like it.
