In Response To: Re: BENCH PRESS SHIRT (Monte Kieschick)

(MK: "The gentleman’s comment below “More lifters use Titan shirts than any other.” should be qualified. Most lifters in the USAPL wear Titan bench shirts.")

Thanks for calling a gentleman, but I still believe that this is not your true name. The question was asked on a USAPL forum, so I felt it was pre-qualified.

(MK: "Titan makes good products, however the particular market share in USAPL is due in large part to the ongoing business arrangements the USAPL has had with Titan. Those arrangements have always given Titan the inside track to marketing in USAPL.")

No. USAPL lifters see big USAPL benches done in Titan and want that shirt.

(MK: "Sport wide the majority of powerlifters wear Inzer brand bench press shirts.")

I'd be willing to bet (a small wager) that Titan sells more shirts than Inzer, period.

(MK: "Even in the USAPL the bigger the benches the more you’ll see Inzer bench shirts among the thicket of Titan shirts.")

Now, quit making stuff up. Come to Cleveland in Sept. and take notes in the Open class.

(MK: "Here’s a link to the IPF approved powerlifting gear list.
http://www.powerlifting-ipf.com/Approved-List.51.0.html")

Didn't I already post this?

(MK: "The USAPL now follows the IPF approved list of bench shirts starting at the time Titan entered into the bench shirt market. Before Titan entered the bench shirt market, other brands were allowed in USAPL.")

What in tarnation does THIS have to do with the question? Sounds like someone is bitter over something....
