I notice that Rag & Bone RB1's have suspender buttons instead of belt loops. Does anybody actually wear suspenders with these jeans? If yes, are they fancy looking or proletarian (the suspenders)?

Only some R&Bs do not have the belt loops. I believe RB1s can -come with belt loops as well. RB11s have both. Wearing suspenders with jeans is sort of a punk-rock look. On the R&B website, there are pictures of Nathan (or there were) wearing the suspenders down, instead of over the shoulders, for sort of a bondage-pants look. Still kind of punk rock, but in that execution with the loose jeans looks more like west-coast slacker.
