Suspenders Braces in most variants of British English (and also sometimes in North America) or suspenders in American English, are elastic fabric straps, run over the shoulders, that hold up trousers or a skirt. The entire strap of braces may be elasticated, or only at attachment ends, with the most of the straps being of woven cloth with either a X-Back or Y-back crosspatch and leather end tabs. Braces typically attach to trousers with clips or, less commonly nowadays, with buttons; heavy-duty Perry braces attach to one's belt with plastic hooks. For other uses, see American English (disambiguation). ...
