I'll need to try later on. Tailor has the suit right now, to make some adjustments (shorten the sleeves a bit, widen the pants a little at the waist).
But I don't have a lot of trust in this tailor any longer. They told me it would be a good idea to wear a belt and suspenders at the same time ... That does not seem like a good idea?

There is no functional reason to wear a belt and suspenders at the same time. Do the pants have brace buttons installed?

Indeed, and I also think it just doesn't look good to combine them.

No brace buttons yet, but was planning to add them.

Here are two walnut pairs that would look good, both are Allen-Edmonds, one is calfskin and the other is shell cordovan. The top pair belongs to my son, the bottom pair belongs to me.
