Inzer/Titan Bench Shirt FYI

[Hannibal]

...and I'm not too sure Bambi at the call center got my order right.

I told her competition tight, 40 inch chest, 14 inch arms, 5'9'', 175 pounds, and wanted at least 250 to get it down.

She was LOST.

I bet I get a belt.

Ok...now that would worry me. I can just imagine that conversation...

Well finally got an email today saying the same thing that I was told on the phone. She did ask if I had a meet coming up. I do understand why they ask but I really believe that it should be first come first serve on these. If someone waits till 2 weeks before a meet and then tries to order a shirt, well tough shit.

Hopefully the shirt will be worth it when it arrives!

P.S. Spatts I hope you like your belt!!

Yeah its nice that they ask if you have a meet coming up. But if they can get it done IF you have a meet...why cant they get it done if you dont. Doesn't make any sense to me.

Of course after talkin to Spatts about her conversation with the woman at Titan I got to thinking. Wouldn't it make sense to have people in those customer service positions that KNOW something about powerlifting??!

I just got through trying the shirt on and it's very tight, especially across the chest and in the arms. I needed help to get it on but it wasn't too bad. There is no way I could get into the shirt by myself. I need to get some weight on the bar and see how much it will take to touch. It will be hard to get my hands out to the rings. I may need to go up one more size to a 52 in order to lock-out what I can touch. It's all speculation at this point.

BigOkie: Sorry to hear about the delivery problems with Titan. It may be that they had my size available while your size is in high demand. It's an awesome shirt though and you should be very pleased with the results.

 

[Deciever]

so do you think it will be a good shirt??

 

[Screwball]

Deciever: Yes, I like the shirt but I can't give a thorough evaluation until I actually lift in it. I am very optimistic at this point.

 

[I'D RATHER BE DEADLIFTING]

Screwball- did you use exact measurements? I'd like to know about the sizing before I order it. I'm exchanging the tight-ass deadlift suit for it.

 

[Screwball]

IRBD: Yes, I pretty much used my exact measurements. I cheated a little on a couple of measurements:

Weight - 282 lbs. (reported 280 lbs.)

Chest - 52 1/2" relaxed (reported 51")

Arms - 19" flexed (reported 19")

I wanted it tight across the chest and just snug in the arms. I got tight all-over! I would recommend that you report your actual measurements if you order the competition fit. It will be tight!
