The most forward button, on each side of the front, goes directly above the front crease. Makes the crease stand out a bit, and the trousers to hang nicely. There is some controversy, created entirely by me, over the next one. The official version says 3.5 inches aft of the more forward one. I don't like them that way. I prefer only 3.0 inches. The greater the spread, the flatter the angle formed by the suspender tabs, and the greater the tension on the waistband. I don't like that. If I wanted to crush my guts, I'd wear a belt.

The back buttons go 1.75 inches from the back seam (standard) or 1.5 inches (my way.)

A long time ago, the buttons were sewn on the outside of the waistband. That is, now, rarely done, on dress clothing. I don't know why they were moved inside. We're surely not fooling anyone.

Just some additional information. The buttons moved from outside to inside because of the loss of the waistcoat. Suspenders, also known as bracers, were buttoned on the outside because a waistcoat would cover them. When waistcoats went out of style, buttons were moved to the inside. The back buttons were moved because exposed buttons kept catching on chair backs. The front buttons followed suit later basically to clean up the look.

If you want to make suspenders, you need an elastic band, a metal circle( or a round ish belt buckle) and some string.

Step1: get your elastic band and cut it so it's one straight line. Then tie that to the metal circle.

Step2: get your string. now measure from your waste to your shoulders and cut the string at that point. Make sure both are equal! ( do this twice.)

Step3: Now tie one end of each peice of string to the belt buckle or metal circle

Step 4: With the other end of the string, attach it to the belt loops at the front of your pants

Step 5: Attach the other end of your elastic band to the back center belt loop!

How to Properly Wear Men's Suspenders?

One men’s accessory that never goes out of style is the suspenders. Suspenders are also known as braces. Suspenders are preferred by some men over belts, because the former holds the pants up more comfortably both sitting and standing. On the other hand, some men choose to wear suspenders just for being extra stylish in their wardrobes. If you are planning of wearing suspenders, there are some things that you might want to consider first, so that you will know if wearing suspenders will suit your style and your taste. • Choose the appropriate suspenders for your clothing. In general, there are different types of suspenders. If you’re planning to wear suspenders on a business suit, you should not choose clip-on suspenders. For business suits, suspenders should be made of silk and should have button holes for attaching to the pants. Aside from that, the color of your suspenders should also match your overall outfit. • Ensure that your pants have interior buttons. If you’re planning to wear suspenders, make sure that your pants have interior buttons where you will attach your suspenders. If your pants do not have interior buttons, you can look for a pair of bachelor buttons. These bachelor buttons are accessories that modify pants so that suspenders can be used. • Button the suspenders onto the pants. Normally, suspenders have one attachment button at the back and two in front. Before putting on your pants, you should attach the center back button. • Put your pants on and pull the suspenders over your shoulders. Attach the buttons in front and adjust the suspenders to make sure that they fit comfortably. You should not over adjust it in a way that your pants end up in an uncomfortable position. In wearing suspenders with a formal outfit, you should make sure that your suspenders compliment your tie, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that it matches exactly. Make sure that your suspenders do not pull your pants up too much that it becomes uncomfortable to wear.
