Sock Suspenders in Sydney

[helpawomanout]

Hey guys, completely new to this forum as well as ALL forums but NEEDED help! Does ANYONE know where I can find sock suspenders in the city of Sydney without having to go online. Desperate for a gift for a suit aficionado. HALP(and thank you)!!!

Might try Crane Brothers, but I honestly think you would be better going online. You could waste a lot of time trying to find them in person. Finding sock suspenders is getting harder and harder, even from top quality menswear stores. I live in the US (Washington DC) and get mine from the UK.

Absolutely. They are a very anachronistic item, objectively speaking.
I've seen pics of Dandy Wellington with them but he's got a period wardrobe like few others.

I have a pet peeve about my socks slipping down, and so I find them still quite useful. People tell me that if I get this kind of sock, or that kind of sock, they'll stay up without the need for suspenders, but for some reason they never do for me. Maybe I have weird calves or something. So I really like them, but have had to get used to people staring at them and looking at me funny when I disrobe at the gym or have to take the suspenders off to go through airport security.
