For certain conditions I highly prefer wearing suspenders (all the cool sitka gear etc. have them and there's a reason dag nabbit!)
sadly nobody puts suspender buttons on pants anymore! ;:;banghead And clip on suspender systems totally blow!
but I recently learned that they make them and they are easy to install - grrrr - why did it take me so long!
pair them with hockey suspenders (Amazon etc) and you have kicka$$ combo
Here's how:
1. Buy jean buttons (sewing store or Amazon)
2. Buy Bauer hockey suspenders (Amazon)
3. Buy pants or dig "old favs that don't fit anymore" out of your closet
4. Install buttons exactly where they need to be - punch hole then install with hammer/soft wood board.
these pics are from converting some skate shorts that are 2" too big so I can wear crash pads under them
