BRACES (SUSPENDERS)

[Trenchfriend]

See, that's why I like them same as belts. You can get great colour schemes and basically, you get so much bang for the buck!

And on storebrands, it's getting ridiculous.

Not that bad. And comfortable.

I’m more of a leather Western guy (lifestyle) but every once in a while something Victorian catches my eye. Check out these 1898 Sterling Silver suspenders buckles with chain & pulley. Monogrammed & dated Christmas Day, they must have been a gift.

This seems to be a good place to get an opinion. I looking at the following options of 1940s style Albert Thurston braces as my first pair as they are available at a reasonable price point where I live. They are to pair with a taupe linen suit, white or blue shirt, navy or burgundy tie and dark brown shoes. I feel the most natural choice is the pair with the burgundy/beige stripe bur the leather ends are a lighter brown than the other 2 and I feel won’t work with my dark shoes. Please see photos. If you feel an entirely other option would work, I’d be interested in your thoughts.
