What suspender system do you prefer????

[TK-8687[TK]]

what do you prefer, actual clamp suspenders, or making your own elastic snaps suspenders???? if that made sense!!!!

Actual clamp suspenders for me. I cut four little slots in the top of the ab pieces (front and back) for the clamps to fit into. Also had to shorten the suspenders a little.

I use a mix of snaps and velcro nowadays on my suspender and attatchment system, works a treat

just snaps for me, although i've had to reglue once or twice. since then i've reinforced with hot glue over the top.

I didn't do suspenders. I just have short strips of elastic connecting all the torso pieces. The chest and ab have snaps so I can take them apart and adjust them.

I did a combo of button snaps and velcro on a home-made, adjustable suspender rig. I used an elastic cross-strap in the back and an adjustable cross-strap in the front for stability. All of the buckles and tri-glides are from REI.

I use nylon straps and large snaps. I have an adjustable nylon belt with a plastic buckle for the waist. the leg straps tie onto it in a knot.... 2 snaps in front and 2 in back of thighs. There several snaps on the strap to make it adjustable.

I'm partial to the Dickies work suspenders. They don't have alligator clips, they have a plastic slot that you can either cut a slot on your armor and lock them on, or glue the plastic to the inside of your armor.
