I am looking for a denim squat suit, I dont even know if they exists. The closest thing inzer has is the leviathan, but at $325 I cant afford it. I just dont like poly shirts or suits much. I like the support at the bottom but not the tightness at the top of a lift.
Does anybody else like denim over poly? Have you had problems with knees bowing in during squat with a suit, even with a wide stance? Can you point me to some denim squat suits? Thanks bros.
karin klein! i have a double denim squat suit that was jason becks suit when he weighed 198lbs. she is cheap and the suit is made for a wide stance squatter. i have had that problem with the suit bowing my knees in and screwing up my sumo stance with a poly.. doesn't happen in the denim.!!!!
Sweet! Even poly power pants bow my knees in slightly. I hate that feeling and know its bad for my knees.Quote:

Do you wear anything under your squat suit? Just a jock, or what?Quote:
