It’s Redundant
- This should be pretty obvious for most of us. And yet we still see this suspender/belt combo out on the streets all the time. Belts are made to hold your pants up by cinching in at your waist/hips. Suspenders are also made to hold your pants in place by bracing the pants over the shoulders - this creates a more flattering silhouette and is much more comfortable throughout the day since it’s not forcing your mid-section to be squeezed in order to hold your pants up. Bottom line, if you feel that your belt or suspenders can’t do the job on it’s own, it might be time to go to a tailor.
It’s Terrible
- Let’s be frank, no good can come from wearing suspenders and a belt at the same time. It’s gawky, awkward, uncomfortable looking, and just plain wrong. It’s like wearing a baseball hat and visor at the same time - pointless.
