Dude, just buy the belt. It has good reviews. I bought one in a similar price range off amazon and it’s been fine. The pointy front end is starting to peel but it’s taken me from like a 250 lb squat to a “380 for 8 reps” squat and it does the job well enough.
EDIT: Edited to be more accurate with my current strength levels.

Just get your own off amazon. I got mine for less than $50 and it holds up ok. Deadlifted 400 lbs for 10 reps on Monday in it.
or you can spend the money for a legit one. But I’m happy with my cheap one.

If you want to go cheap, I’ve used this one for several years now and I am now deadlifting “410 lbs for 10 reps” in it. Pretty happy with it. I just remember the belt was sorta stiff when I first got it and it needed a break in period.
When I get a new belt (even though mine is still working just fine) I will probably get an IPF approved one off the EliteFTS page.

I’m leaning to something like this

I use this belt to squat like this (high bar and below parallel) and deadlift like this.
