I have the armada suspenders and all i do is snap them to my pants (which are way too big for me) and they keep them right where i want them i like it a lot better than belts just because they are not so tight around the waist and you dont have to worry about picking them up

I went to goodwill. got some ones for like $1.50 they are fucking perfect too.

They aren't thick like the saga/armada ones. They are skinny and i love them.

I got a real cheap pair off http://www.suspenderstore.com/ and they work perfect. Like someone else said, belts can be kinda tight, especially if you have baggy pants and they get cinched up real good. I'm trying to work around the issue of them falling off my shoulders though, I might not go super saggy this year.

If they fall off your shoulders, cross them

It works really well--better than a belt, no matter what fit you're looking for in your pants. But for those of us who like to sag, it's the shit.

.....

Unless you are sagging your pants to the ground or wear a jacket that goes to your nipples, you shouldn't get snow down your pants.

yea i cross my suspenders that works really well for me and keeps them from falling off my shoulders. The only time i get snow down my pants is if i eat shit but i have long enough tall ts and jackets/sweatshirts to prevent that from happening when i ski pow i juts bring my pants up a little

I have a tall jacket, plus I shorten the suspenders to get my pants those extra couple inches up above my pow skirt.

suspenders work magically. it allows you to have your pants at the exact height you want with no adjusting during the day. And you dont have to deal with an uncomfortable tight waist line.

Does anyone have the new Armada suspenders and can tell me how they "clip" on. It it just like a binder clip on the top of the pants or something? and stupid question, do they fit all snowpants?

Yea i have them. They clip onto your pants anywhere you want and you can unclip them when you want to take them off its super easy and simple.

or you can rock a $2 elastic baseball belt and have your pants feel like jordan shorts with a nice elastic waistline. . .

I think I found your problem...


But actually, just get a cheap pair from anywhere. I have heard nice things about the Armada ones though if you want to stick to the ski world.

Never ever wear your suspenders without a shirt on. I made the mistake of doing that last season when it was really warm and at the end of the day my nipples were chafed and bleeding.

Snowpants with built in suspenders? I thought we figured this out. They're called BIBS.
