I finally received a belt from Pioneer. The belt is much more solid than I expected, and seems to give me lots of support. It’s really stiff, so it seems to take up to a month or so to break in. Japan has few stores that sell lifting belts. Even if I can find the store, the service is usually bad. Actually my previous belt arrived rusty already. On the contrary, PioneerFit is so good a store that I want to encourage you to buy a belt from Pioneer! Shipping cost may be expensive if you live in a far country, but the quality of the shop and belts is perfect!

I’ve only had it about a week but it’s great quality! Accidentally got the 13mm instead of 10mm BUT aside from being stiff I think I prefer the thicker belt now 👌🏻

The belt is like no other. Was exactly what I wanted. High quality belt for a fair price! Quick shipping as well!

I am a relatively new lifter but wanted to get something that would last me a lifetime. My experienced friends sent me to Pioneer and boy am I impressed. This belt may take a couple months to break in but the support it gives me when lifting is so crucial since I have old back injuries! Love it and look forward to lifting with it for the rest of my life!

Solid belt. Pioneer lock system is great. It made my back with lifts feel secure.

For the money this is hard to beat. If you need a comp belt and just starting out, this is it.

Best belt I’ve ever had. Wouldn’t use any other brand

Sturdy!

The belt arrived in flawless condition, down to the last stitch and rivet. I've been lifting with it for about 6 weeks now and am extremely happy with it. I especially like the stagger stacked holes that let you adjust the tightness in smaller Increments.
Additionally, Pioneer gave wonderful service throughout the order and delivery process. I live in South America and had a short window of time to get the belt during an unexpected trip home to the States. They worked with me to make sure it would arrive within a short time window.

The 13mm gives me all the support I need.

This was my first ever real lifting belt I ever purchased. Love my belt. I've had my belt for about 4 years. Still hitting some PRs.

I have had this belt for 3 years now and have had zero issues with it at all. I love the ease of use and the variety that comes with the pioneer cut holes for more precise sizing. Very easy to switch from a squat tightness to a deadlift tightness with no adjustments. Has held up perfectly and came very broken in and ready to use!

I've been using the same belt for more than 5 years without any real problems, but once I found out about the extra adjustability of the Pioneer cut belts I had to get one. It's been said many times that 10mm is plenty of thickness for most people if not everybody, but I went with this 13mm because I've been using that thickness for as long as I can remember (the belt I had before was a good deal and only available in 13mm so I just went with it). Well this belt is VERY SOLID. It feels like must weigh at least 50-100% more than my old suede belt that's the same size. It's extremely stiff, yet still fairly comfortable out of the box due to the slightly beveled edges. Once I lose a few more inches, it'll be time for a new belt and I will go with a 10mm for sure! The heaviness and stiffness is most certainly a sign of high quality construction, but I believe it will be more than most average people need from a belt. Definitely get the 10mm if you're not sure what you need! Excellent belt though and the sizing was right on.

This belt is great. I also own a 10mm Rogue Ohio Belt and this one is much more solid. I was worried about ordering the wrong size, because my Ohio Belt is an XL, but based on measurements the Large Pioneer belt is what I went with. It fits perfectly, I’m 6’2” 250lbs and my pants size is 36.

This belt is a monster. If you want a supportive, quality powerlifting belt, this is the belt for you. The pioneer cut design is perfect for dialing whatever level tightness you want out of your belt. Very impressed. I am sold on Pioneer belts and look forward to collected a few more over time.

Everything I wanted in a belt. I have been using it for the past month and love it. I really like the pioneer cut it gives me the perfect fit each time I lift.

This is my first new belt in 10 years. This is everything I wanted in a belt. This belt is the perfect thickness for me to comfortably lift heavy again. The pioneer cut has allowed me to dial in the exact tightness from deadlift to overhead clean and press. Matt helped keep find the perfect size as I was close to in between sizes. This belt honestly puts a smile on my face everytime I use it. Pioneer cut is pure gold.
