Works better when the suspenders are hooked to the cloth of the pants – not as slick as leather. Fortunately my Plugger belly hasn’t gotten to the point I need a belt to keep my pants from splitting the zipper and suspenders to keep them up.
I’ve been there. But belts AND braces? Henry Fonda as the villainous Frank in “Once Upon a Time in the West” opines: “How can you trust a man that wears both a belt and suspenders? Man can’t even trust his own pants.“
that’s why there are two of them so that when one goes you don’t have a SERIOUS malfunction and embarrass (bear a$$) yourself like the not so smart celebrities. I mean if “a celebrity” can’t figure out how to keep their clothes on than why would they think we care about their opinions on doing anything?
I had a slide belt that did that once in the middle of an auction banquet, so embarrassing! No one else could figure out why everyone at my table was convulsing in laughter!
