I started the taper at the side of my waist.
At that time, they would make it any way you wanted it.
It may be worth a try if you think she'll be lifting for long enough for you to recoup your investment.
I'm going to call and see if they can make a 3in x 4in Belt for her. I love the $49 price tag... I know it will be more if I custom make one.

I'd get her a lever (sp?) belt.

I already have an extra Lever for a Belt.. Can you buy just a 3in 10mm Belt with no Lever? I was thinking a single prong would be best. Women depending on the day weight changes, Stomach bloated etc... A prong will work around that stuff. A Lever would as well, but you have unscrew two screws and move and reinstall the screws again (Carefully to not strip one)

Sorry Ramrod.
I prefer a single prong over the lever. Easier to adjust for me. Definitely a personal preference though. Both styles work well.

If it were myself I would go with Inzer. I own an Inzer Forever 10mm belt. It is of superb quality. I also had a good experience with Inzer's customer service.
I know someone who has one of there tapered belts and it is of the same quality of there powerlifting belts.

I am not a powerlifter nor am I a bodybuilder. I just want to be big and strong.
