This "implied elastic waistbandโ is a REAL GOOD for guys like me who suffer from a deep tummy that makes their pants very embarrassingly slip and fall. the discomfort of having to tighten the belt which compresses and sometimes stops circulation in the waist! I decided to fasten my suspenders and was seriously considering suspenders (suspenders are fastened with buttons that should be sewn to the waist of the pants). By chance I stumbled upon this subtle elasticated waist belt, which frees me from uncomfortable suspenders that can't quite be hidden. the embarrassment of those open braces. I just wish there were more standard colors like tan, tan, gray etc. I would definitely buy them.!
