Great Concept, Not the Best Quality

First of all, let me say that as an overweight person with a large stomach, I put a lot of strain on a pair of suspenders. That being said, the couple of pairs of HoldUp suspenders have not stood up to that strain as well as any other pair of quality suspenders I've worn have.The pinning feature that makes these suspenders non-slip works great. The problem I had is with the clip itself. My first pair of HoldUps were one of the single-clip models. After a couple of weeks of wear one of the clips flew apart as I was exiting my car, creating a flying missile that barely missed my head.So I figure that if I put too much strain on a single clip, the dual-clip, "suspender-button" model might solve the problem by halving the strain on each clip. This time the clips stayed together but one of the leather straps joining two of the clips together broke.So, much to my disappointment, I'm going back to those rugged suspenders I get from Duluth Trading. These suspenders eventually slip as the clips wear, but at least they don't leave me holding up one side of my pants when the clips fail catastropically.
