Trouser Braces - Leather

[rancid badger]

I really like those Hamish, love the proper copper rivets

I guess you need a fairly accurate, personal measurement for the rear strap?

best wishes

Cheers Steve, yeah it's difficult to get accurate measurements. I had to get my brother in law to re-measure several times for this to get it right

Nice work Hamish.

They look grand Hamish , not sold on the bulky buckles though. May cause discomfort with a seat belt and mis shape a wool jumper ? Having no elasticity, how do they fair when squatting/kneeling etc ?
Perhaps a rivet and more holes system like removable belt buckles have could work better ?

Tiptop craftsmanship as usual . :thumbup:

What would really interest me would be a set of these linked to a belt that had some D rings for the braces to clip to.

i'm not normally a fan of bracers, but those are a fine peice of work.
Seems your skill just keeps going up and up Hammish! :You_Rock_

Literally, a "belt and braces" man

Problem with trigger hooks is that they wouldn't fit my 5.11s due to wide belt loops. But attached to a belt they would work well.

cheers they were made to my brother-in-laws design so whatever makes him happy, but I do agree with you. If I make some for myself, they will have a few inches of elastic somewhere as I don't like them getting loose when you move. The buckles don't seem too bad, but wouldn't be needed if there was elastic.

Nice idea red, would be a good set to complete.
