British trouser braces, surplus

Old fashioned elastic button braces, two button holes on the back and two on both sides, well adjustable. Go Britain!

Probably made from the 70's upwards - some braces are even dated in the 2000's! Excellent army quality basic braces for a very decent price. Not only made well, but the general appearance is quite historical, making these fit for all kinds of old timey hoolabaloo. Moreover, the steel locking pieces are very flat, meaning they won't snag on your other clothes or cause general discomfort.

Size info

Available in four sizes: Small (95 cm), Medium (100 cm), Large (105 cm) and X-Large (110 cm). The sizes are measured from the back buttonhole to the front hole. Why on earth did they choose to produce fully adjustable, elastic braces in 5 cm increments? Well, the answer is simple: these are English manufacture after all. Anglophiles get this, others might not. Trying to explain it is impossible.
