Durable Suspenders?

Yes I searchbarred.

Does anyone have any good recommendations for reasonably priced durable suspenders?

I've been using $7 K-Mart brand tall suspenders, but they're really not durable at all. I've ben through like 4 pairs already. The impact of landing stretches the hell out of them and eventually they fray and the buckles fall off. When I fall, the metal pieces get super mangled and are rendered useless.

So NS, what suspenders (not shoelaces) do you use? I'm looking to invest in a quality pair so I can sag like a G but not have to buy a new pair every 2 weeks...

Shoelaces, even though you said no shoelaces. I've been using the same shoelaces for like 2 full seasons now.

Well try it, they're not as long as you're wearing a shirt.

If I didn't do exactly as tom did, other people wouldn't think I was cool and that would really bother me.
