For the gentlemen liviung through the Roaring Twenties in the blazers and 'bags', a pair of elegant braces or suspenders as our American customers would call them, were a necessary part of their wardrobe and this pair of wide red and blue striped braces with chrome adjusters and clasps would be just the thing for them.  These are actually smart enough for the office as well as for wearing with your costume. These are real braces with the traditional 'Y' shape at the back and they have working metal clasps and integrated length adjusters to ensure the correct fit. Great value costume accessory.
