Member 4755, 53 posts | Just bought a second hand titan squat suit, it's basically new and it's totally unaltered, it's got a little sag in the gut area and the straps are a bit long for me, any thoughts on how to go about altering it? 1) need to bring the gut in, how do I measure this? 2) need to shorten the straps Am I as well just going to a tailor? Or should I D.I.Y? Thanks | ||

 Member 2216, 2243 posts | 1 - turn it inside out, put it on and get some one to pin it where it needs taking in. 2 - as above, don't go too snug with these to start with though or you won't get near depth. Upholsterers thread, fairly thick needle, thimble & pliers and you can do a decent job yourself. | ||
