Ski pant suspenders

[Hypnotoad]

My Patagucci Powder Bowl pants are awesome, but when they slip down too low they get absolutely gigantic. What do you guys do about suspenders? Are the Armada or Line ones any good?

I've had success w suspenders from mammut...

You can always go belt AND suspenders.

Arcade belts work great. Wide heavy duty elastic stretches to move with you but always remains snug. Being one of the hexagenarians around here I'm carrying around a few extra Labatts in he midsection which tends to encourage my pants to obey gravity... The Arcade belt fixed that. So yeah, they're kinda like anti-gravity devices for your pants.

Second the arcade belt. Only problem for me is the damn thing is so wide it doesn't fit the belt loops on some of my pants.

Get the skinny arcade version

I've been using suspenders sold by Chums, elastic band about 1.5" wide, plastic clips. The plastic clips are so-so. They sometimes slip off the pants, and they will only work on a fairly thick waistband. Better than using the suspenders off my tool belt though, since the metal clips on those get coild, and will destroy my car seats if not careful.

Button suspenders are the only solution.

those burton's look spiffy. i like to look tuff when i ski, so i go with the carhartt flavor myself. solid purchase at ~15 bucks.

I love these ones, in my 4th season on a pair (second pair of ski pants) without problems. I have a seamstress sew the backs into the waist of the pants otherwise my pack rips the clips off. Using clips on the front has been fine.

Workwear suspenders/braces. I have some Brimarc brand ones that are pretty good (Euro/UK brand I think). Get 2 inch width ones anyway.

if you go with an arcade belt, go skinny. i can't use mine on any of my ski pants because the belt is too wide. Thing works great on other pants though.

check out my thread from not long ago: http://www.tetongravity.com/forums/s...ght=suspenders My patagucci's don't have belt loops or anything to attach the suspenders to, so perhaps a different problem. And I haven't done anything with them yet, just tried the pants this past week and yes, I need suspenders.

This should really be the new slogan for Arcade Belts.

I know it's easy to go to the internet for advice, but is it really that hard to buy a pair of suspenders on your own? (Sorry, but it rained here last night at 6000 ft.)

The butthurt is strong with this one, Obiwan.... /yoda

Duluth Trading Co has some side-clip ones that I really like. Retry cheap too. Get the metal clips though. I snapped a plastic one last year. Beyond that, I love them.

If your pants have belt loops then a belt and these OR suspenders are the best I've seen/used. I think they go for around $20.

Nothing that a little snow won't fix. Don't mind me--I already have suspenders.
"Why does a fireman wear red suspenders?"
My kids think I look like a dork with my high waisted pants and suspenders. They're right. It is crucial to let the suspenders dangle and pull your shirt or sweater out of your pants to cover the high waist, when in public without your jacket on.

[BoatBound]

Only wear your base layer under the suspenders! Just throw the rest on over so you can ditch a layer without having to fully undress. plus it covers the dorkey suspenders...

oh, and your kids will ALWAYS think you are a dork, that's what kids do.

ARCADE BELT. Your life will forever be changed. It moves while you ski and you never feel restricted.

Wear a harness jong. Arc'teryx harness iz best.

[SkeezeBall]

Walmart suspenders work fine for me. I've banged soo many chicks with these things. Worth. Every. Penny.

ARCADE SUSPENDERS!

They just need to be designed, manufactured, and shipped to America.
