metal squat suits?

[mjaym]

I was thinking of buying one of these metal suits eventually, has anyone tried one? It is a toss up between a denim from karin or one of these, any thoughts?

No personal experience...I just know that Dave Tate is about to carry them on his site and he has nothing but good things to say about them. Bob Youngs is about to start using it to replace his canvas. Kinda waiting to see what they have to say about them.

Ano's numbers speak for themselves...

Metal = brand or metal = composition?

I fear the answer to this.

Metal is the brand name. It is Ano Turtainen's line of equipment.

Tee hee. No stainless steel suits just yet.

metal suits

Brent Mikesell carries the metal suits on his website www.irongladiators.com too. I want to get one of these, but they are very expensive, 200 hundred dollars for the suit and 100 for the briefs. My only concern with buying another poly suit is that i hear that poly suit straps stretch out to the point where they need adjustments. It would suck having to continuely adjust the straps. This would be opposed to a denim or canvas where the staps are adjustable.

Liftbig- Do you know how much Dave will be selling them for?

I can tell you from firsthand experience that the quality of the stuff is top notch!! The material gives a ton of support. I have only used the briefs though.

PS- Brent and Ano are class acts as well. Great customer service compared to most companies.
