Buffalo Leather Western Dress Suspenders

Description

Full grain buffalo hide, cut 0.2 inches thick and one inch wide, gives this NUTUCH pair its weight. There is no elastic anywhere in it. The straps cross at the back for balanced support, and the ends carry gunmetal hooks that swivel through a full circle so they lie flat however you have twisted or reached. Everything about the specification is heavier than a standard pair, from the hide down to the hardware.

This is dress leather with a western accent, at home with a suit and equally at home over a denim shirt. Formal wear is the obvious use, but hide this thick is a material that improves with age rather than looking tired after a season, which is why the pair reads as an everyday piece as much as an occasion one. Three finishes are offered: black, dark brown and a vintage brown that shows its grain more openly than the other two. Leather with no stretch in it holds trousers at a fixed height rather than letting them ride up and settle again.

Ten adjustment holes cover heights from five feet up to six foot two, so the fit is set by hooking through the right hole rather than by sliding a buckle along a strap and hoping it stays. Getting them on and off takes seconds once the correct hole has been chosen. Leather this heavy wants conditioning from time to time and should be kept well away from a washing machine, which is the one thing that will ruin it quickly.
