Can verify. I got a pair for my Super Mario costume, and it felt like someone was following me with their fingers in my belt loops and holding my pants up.

Maybe someday, but I'm not yet ready to be known as the suspenders guy.

And you can take your thumbs and do this with them:

Every couple of years deciding to make a specific article of clothing my new personality

This will only lead to more bow ties.

Mens braces are what they are called, good man.

Do you also wear a belt or are you ok with the threat of elastic breaking?

I went through a suspenders phase when I was wearing suits on a regular basis. They’re both comfortable and another way to flash a little color when men’s fashion is so boring.

But it never occurred to me that you could wear them with other types of pants. Can you? These days I regularly wear khakis: are they appropriate? How about jeans?

i had a suspenders phase, but now i use them mostly for work pants. i have a pair with those suspender-specific buttons but i ordered them in the wrong size so they were way too big when i got them and now that i've lost like 20 pounds they are probably most accurately described as "cavernous". i should try them on again. could be a fun escape room experience.

I tried suspenders once. The problem was when my pants were tailored I was 15 pounds heavier so by the time I tried to wear the suspensers with the pants, it just pulled my pants up uncomfortably. I had to ditch em.

Just make sure to use either suspenders or a belt but never both. It’s like double wrapping your dingus, if it can’t be done right the first way, the second way isn’t going to improve the situation, so if done correctly, the second way is redundant.

Me too, I use them with my work pants because I always hated belts. Tried them ironically one day and was like "this is awesome" and never went back.

I bought these last year together with "Italian work pants" and "Wool pants" found on the same store! Really upped my way of dressing and had lots of good comments so far!

Fun to combine with old shirts I rarely used.

So now I am a suspender guy

(I am Not affiliated with the store)

i was a suspenders guy for a dark time in my life. now i'm a belt buckle guy.

I got suspenders (because the store was literally out of belts) for my work pants that use the worst claw clamp mechanism I have ever seen.

There is like a 5mm gap between the teeth so I have to fold my work pants belt line double and still if it experiences more than 0.1N of force, it will just fly off. I finally got a cheap 2nd hand belt.
