LOL. That’s a pretty strange question. I understand that money has problems, but not to this extent. Well, in your question, I would follow the logical chain. Pants are still possible, somehow fastened or tied with a drawstring and covered with outer clothing. But without shoes, I don’t think you’ll go out. If you buy on the Internet, find out what an instant paystub is and make it when you buy. If you do not like the shoes or they are not your size, then you, with this statement, will be able to get your money back or exchange the product. It will be your insurance for all occasions. I’ve made a habit of always doing paystubs.
I am surprised no one has asked this. What shoes are you lifting in? If you just have running shoes then shoes first. It seems everyone assumed weightlifting shoes. If it is barefoot or bouncy running shoes go barefoot.
Now what type of shoes?
I have Olympic shoes and they are ok. I have a wide foot and need a higher vamp than the typical shoe so I have a hard time finding Olympic shoes that fit. They do give support but they also change the squat mechanics with an elevated heel. It is like standing with your heels on a plate when squatting. That isn’t a bad thing but it isn’t optimal if you don’t Olympic lift. What the shoe does is help you overcome lack of ankle mobility in deep squats. If you can’t squat deep without weight without going on your toes then they might help you. If you are just squatting to just below parallel though it doesn’t help much. Your squat isn’t bringing the knees over your toes so you don’t need to compensate for lack of ankle mobility.
Lifting shoes
Pros
If you squat really deep they help with ankle mobility.
The straps give support and help from the foot rolling if when try to exert lateral pressure
Stable platform that doesn’t give when you exert force
Cons
It is like squatting while standing on a plate. If you are just going below parallel this really changes the mechanics.
With the deadlift it is like a slight deficit deadlift.
They are expensive.
Inexpensive flat shoes with no extra heel padding like Chucks
Pros
Stable platform that doesn’t give when you exert force
If you don’t squat deep you really don’t need to compensate for ankle mobility
Great for a deadlift.
Relatively inexpensive
Cons
If you do squat really deep they don’t compensate for lack of ankle mobility
They don’t have the straps to support your foot and eliminate any potential roll of the foot.
Particularly for beginners I personally don’t think there is a benefit to a weight lifting shoe. If you only have running shoes definitely invest in a flat shoe. You will only use weightlifting shoes for a squat and maybe a press while something like Chucks can be used for everything even GPP. You don’t want to do GPP in weightlifting shoes trust me on that one. 
So they are pretty specific to one lift. So in my opinion isn’t worth the money for a new lifter. Now if you want to be an Olympic style lifter there are helpful in getting that really deep squat you need.
So if you just have running shoes get chucks, wrestling shoes, or something like that first.
If you have some flat lifting shoes without bounce and it is weightlifting shoes vs. a belt without a doubt it is the belt. You will use it on squats, presses, and deadlifts when you hit work sets.
For belts, I like dominion strength and they are good quality relatively inexpensive. I have two of their belts and have liked both of them.
Shoes. Don’t squat barefooted. my 2cents.
The belt won’t protect your feet from getting wet. You may have noticed that when estimating a person’s look, you tend to look at his shoes first. So, that’s why I’d go with shoes.
Hello there. Thanks a lot for your replies, folks. It’s the first time I’m choosing a belt for lifting. I was really lucky to find this thread. Everything’s clear for me now. Thanks for your suggestions. My friend who works as a Mortgage Broker Luton is a lifter too. Actually, he helps me a lot with my mortgage issues, so I guess I’ll buy him a belt as a present. He’s been looking for a good one for months. So, folks, keep the topic updated, please. It’s one of the most useful threads I’ve ever come through. Thanks in advance. Best wishes.
Of course, shoes. Almost all the exercises I do involve a good emphasis on the floor. So it is very important for me to have light but durable sneakers that are convenient for me to do sports. Although it costs very cheap. I wouldn’t call it a serious investment, man. A serious investment is a business or real estate. If I were investing money in buying a gym or setting up a home gym, I’d call it an investment. Although it doesn’t matter anymore. On Tim Thomas, I read about the future collapse of the real estate market. As for the belt, get it as soon as possible because it protects you from falling out of an umbilical hernia. Good luck.
