Suspenders, Not Just to Hold Up Your Pants

Albert Thurston invented suspenders in 1820 as a way to hold up men's trousers (the high cut of pants at the time made wearing belts difficult). Since then, suspenders have gone in and out of fashion. But in recent years, they've come back in a big way thanks to period dramas and more than a few trend-setting celebrities. Of course, suspenders aren't just for holding up your pants anymore. They've evolved into a timeless style accessory for both men and women and have several other practical benefits. Style Distinguishers It's undeniable that suspenders can really make you stand out. Why else would so many famous people choose to wear them to big events? The suspender look is bold yet sophisticated, classic yet hip, and unquestionably suave. Metal clip-on suspenders are ideal for everyday wear, while traditional button suspenders complement formalwear especially well. Here at SuspenderStore, we even offer special clip suspenders for airport travel. These affordable suspenders don't contain any metal, so you'll breeze through security checkpoints without sacrificing your style. Reliable Supporters If you need suspenders solely for their original purpose - support - SuspenderStore has you covered. For anyone who does manual labor, we offer a selection of work suspenders featuring thick straps and reinforced materials to hold up heavy pants and tool belts. Anyone with a little extra weight may also appreciate our versatile selection of suspenders. No one likes the look of their stomach hanging over their belt. With suspenders, your pants will stay at your natural waist where they belong. If you have the opposite problem and want to keep your pants from falling down, suspenders can help there, as well. You'll avoid cinching your pants with a belt and keep your shirt from bunching up. Whether you gain or lose weight, your suspenders will grow with you, especially if you choose an elastic style. Posture Strengtheners Did you know that suspenders could actually improve your posture? Unlike belts, they won't dig into your skin, and you can adjust them to fit just right using convenient adjustment clips. When fitted properly, suspenders frame your shoulders and torso. Try them on and you'll quickly realize that you're standing up straighter! Best of all, a typical pair of suspenders can last you for years - a lot longer than the shelf life of most belts.
