Title: Kidney Belts
Post by: Rossvickicampbell on January 11, 2009, 06:49:16 pm
OK I seem to have a bit of a problem with "leading with the chin" lately so continuing in that vein.  Does anybody know where you can buy kidney belts that tend to be a little larger than normal for those of us that may require slightly larger ones...........................!

Anybody...............................

Maybe............

thanks

(and no smart arse comments eh!).

and a bit of further investigating finds that the 09 range of FOX and THOR kidney belts now go out to 44in where last year they stopped at 38in!  Beauty.

Rossco the politically correct way is to have "no smart arses or dumb arses" so those that feel left out ,rejected and lost, will not have to post comments in their desperate struggles for recognition against the unkind uncaring VMX community.  ;)    Sort of like this shit......

Hey Rossco, you are kidding right!!?  How could you not expect a reply to this from me or Andy.  Sounds like there's been a little chocolate paddock grazing going on.  By the way try Kingsize Big and Tall I'm sure the specialise in the large sizes for larger lads, I don't think they sell kidney belts though.  I had to spellcheck several times I can't see the keys cause I'm laughing too hard!!!

Hiya Rossco,
This shouldn't be a problem for even slightly larger gents like yourself. Simply go to page 283 of the Western Australian Yellow Pages & there you will find suppliers of conveyor belting. There are companies
there who can splice it at whatever length & width you desire (or need) Some of these companies even do ribbed belting which apparently gives greater pleasure to the user!!
Like Mike said, surely you didn't expect not to get helpful advice from your buddies in VMXWA?!
Love you long time though!

Ross i have a blue fox one here that was a big fit on me, it was loose when i last wore it as it had gone soft on the velco from me when i was a 32", so every size bigger than that would be oK as its unused teritiory after that.  It looks like it woud go out a few girth sizes. yOU can have it for $5 and the postage if you like. 

You can PM me you size if you want me to measure it out and see if it goes out there.  I use the one on my Dainese armour so havent used it in 10 years or so, infact if you buy a body shell the kidney belts on them wrap around me twice so they would be bear size. 
 Are you a bear ?  :D

if so you could use a trashed Body suits kidney strap as they would still be good also.

Any how if your interested.
