Yes they do. When you hook them to the back of your pants then up over your shoulder and hook the front end to the detector box it really takes all the weight off of the machine. You can swing all day like that!

hio lover, I have a pair in the closet but have never put them on, will now do so. As a USAF officer I had to wear them and garters.

Yeah, pantyhose was not invented yet... they still had silk nylons back then and garters were necessary to keep them up.

when you couldn't get the silk stockings did you draw the line up the back of your legs to make it look like you had them? ;D

I wear suspenders when I go out MDing. If I don't I'll get a bad case of plumber's crack after getting up and down about 3 times. I knew I was aging when a cute little coed came bopping up to me when I was in college. I gave her my biggest smile and she said, "Sir, can you tell me where the library is"? First time a cute thing called me "Sir"! I was 32! Monty

They worked for Mork... but the meaning has changed since then.

Be careful as to your selection of colors in California, but then again... hummm think about it.

If your wearing these suspenders, do you really want your pants to stay up?

Wow. Something to ponder over there, Mr. AA

I have worn suspenders for the last 25 years. A few things I have learned while wearing them. 1. clip your shorts right along with your pants, because your shorts will go south long before you do. 2. Suspenders are hot to wear in the summertime, I wear bib-overalls then. 3. When you are working on a friends car, wearing a belt will destroy his paint job, you can wear suspenders under a T-shirt. 4. When you MD, use the carpenters heavy duty kind, clip 'em to your pouch and pants at same time, the clips are much more open. 5. Beware of smart-a**ed kids and spouses, they love the sound of you screaming in pain when they grab them from behind and run around the block before letting them loose. 6. Why I like suspenders over belts. As you get older you keep pulling your pants up higher and higher, only to have them get just past the middle age spread (even while wearing a belt) and this is why you see so many old farts wearing both (belt and suspenders) lose the bulge, then ya can wear a belt only. Believe me, all of this is very true. Also another bit of truth, when you get to be old like me, NEVER EVER trust a FART!..........NGE
