I wear a belt, but I'd like some suspenders for the hell of it.

Either--but suspenders only if they attach to buttons on the trousers. Those clamp things, well, aren't for me.

I wear a belt every day, I make my own. They're not very good, but I like'm. I also make my own straps. They're not very good either. Oh dear...

I usually just wear a belt, unless I'm trying to class it up a little, and then I'll wear suspenders.

You can't hook your thumbs into your belt while reminiscing, so I'll have to go for suspenders.

It helps if you have some red long john underwear and a beat up old hat to go with it.

Belt, I always wear a belt. Makes my pants fit better. Plus, it is proper when you are dressed up.

I wear belts. I wore suspenders once, but I looked like the 80's called and wanted their stuff back.
