These are worth the price. I cried when I forked over the $$ for these, but when I started to use them... They really work and work well. I have been using them for eight years, usually five days a week. My previous suspenders were the nylon clipons. I was always tugging at them. One side would be slack, or the other.

Aside of this, I still wear it cause it's hard to find a alternative system with... more info
If only more products worked this well.... I'll admit it--I'm a snake-hipped electrician. You've all seen it before: toolbelt working the pants down towards the knees, tidy whities riding high. It's not a pretty sight. I had tried the usual suspenders that can't take the load, always get in the way, and come unclipped at a strong glance. When I first heard about the Stronghold suspension system, I was definitely interested--if a little leery of the $70 price tag. That's almost what I had invested in my whole toolbelt. Well, I took the leap and... more info
