Your Ideal Weightlifting Belt?

Training Powerlifting

If you could fashion a belt for weightlifting, how would it look like?

I’ve tried powerlifting belts but found that they are too unwieldy and stiff. The weightlifting belts are more comfortable (padded back, softer/thinner material) but at 5cm/2", the front section is just too narrow. My ideal belt would be weightlifting belt but with the front section widen to perhaps 7.5-10cm (3-4") or so. I’ve been thinking about the fastening system but I don’t know if there’s anything better than the common buckle with prong system. Oh and no textile/nylon POS.

I don’t often use a belt, but when I do, my Valeo competition belt has never failed me.

An oly belt is smaller then an PL belt.
