i am a thin man, lacking hips/ass and wear heavy-duty, double-knee carhartt pants. i work on a farm, and often have knives, weeding tools, sharpening file, or any number of hand tools in my pockets. all of these items weigh down my pants, and my belt has to be cinched really, really tight to keep my pants up...and they still slip down! i don't know how/why it took me 32 years to figure this out, but these suspenders absolutely do the job. i am tall-ish (6'1") and it seems they would work for somebody even an inch or two taller than me. these suspenders feel well-made, and for
$12 shipped, have provided a great solution for a problem that has plagued me for years! highly recommended.
