I agree with a lot of things Flusser says, but this is not one of them.Originally Posted by lee_44106
+1. Not a big deal to have both buttons and belt loops - in this case it's ok to swing both ways in my book.Originally Posted by eHaberdasher
No problem at all. Just don't wear a belt and suspenders (or braces to be a bit more pedantic).Originally Posted by porcelain monkey
It's easy enough to get them removed, if you care to bother. I wear braces also, and whenever I have my trousers hemmed/cuffed (and tipped, about .5") I just tell the tailor to add suspender-buttons and to lop off the belt loops - but save them, so I can always have them put back on if my tastes change.Originally Posted by RatherAnOddball
Yes, it's the same, though I like your term better; it's much more esoteric and consequently is certain to provoke an all-betraying shudder of fright on the face of any tailor who doesn't know enough to deserve my business. It's a swell tweak, isn't it? Deserves a thread all its own. I only got into it with my last pair of trousers, the method was a little willynilly; next time I'll go in with precise measurements for the angle.Originally Posted by RatherAnOddball
Hi Orsini - My last message was in reference to "Guardsman's slant," if I didn't make that clear, sorry.Originally Posted by RatherAnOddball
I think the suspender site that you linked to only sells th clip-on kind?Originally Posted by RatherAnOddball
As for getting the bracers buttons put on right, I thought the rule was that the innermost button goes over your trouser pleat or the area where it would've been if it had one...?Originally Posted by RatherAnOddball
