The single most important part of any suspender is the clip. Clips with pins provide trustworthy holding capability and avoid that embarrassing moment of truth when it slips off and your pants sag. All other features of suspenders are secondary.
After going through a few suspenders, I say skip the clip and go straight to buttons. If you don't want to commit to buttons, get clip on buttons. Then, when you change your mind to wanting to keep the suspenders, you just sew on buttons and don't need to buy new suspenders
Thanks; however, though your voice and information is quite thorough, I would prefer seeing close-ups of the suspenders, while you explain the various use, types and styles.
Informative, very nice, although I was looking for the synonym for suspenders that is often used for the high end style. A couple days later I found the term braces; English?
After tryinf many suspenders, I have to say I think pin clip and trigger snap hold the best. I noticed that on the slide adjustment of novelty suspenders they many times give way and slide down a bit. The logger suspenders don't seem to slide down. I really like the look of the tape measure suspenders and wish I could find those in a heavy duty no slip version. I think the X back is better than the Y back. Do you have any new additions coming?
