Welch Suspenders The Welch Company has been manufacturing suspenders in Portl<strong>and</strong>,<br />
Oregon, since 1967. Their suspenders are recognized for quality <strong>and</strong> reliability.<br />
Traditionally, in the Northwest, anyone showing up to join a logging crew wearing a belt<br />
instead of suspenders was sent home as too green to work with the crew.<br />
We offer a selection of Welch suspenders to suit a variety of needs. The elastic in each<br />
suspender is the best of its type, <strong>and</strong> each is selected for stretch <strong>and</strong> wear characteristics<br />
to suit the specific style of suspender. All Welch suspenders are made in the USA.<br />
Ends Leather ends are flat <strong>and</strong> riveted to swivel so they may fit well. The leather used<br />
is the same oil-tanned leather used in the uppers of the best logging <strong>and</strong> work boots of<br />
the Northwest. It is strong, durable, <strong>and</strong> supple, allowing easy attachment to buttons. The<br />
oversized Gator Clip is firm <strong>and</strong> reliable, nickel plated to withst<strong>and</strong> the weather.<br />
Suspender Sizing Suspender length is measured from the suspender buttons or clip<br />
ends on the front over the shoulder to that on the back on the opposite side.<br />
The Regular (46") suspenders adjust from 46 inches to about 38 inches, <strong>and</strong> generally fit<br />
people under 6 feet tall. The Extra Long (54") suspenders adjust from 54 inches to about<br />
42 inches. Those under 6 feet tall may prefer the Extra Long suspenders if they have a<br />
larger girth or wish to keep the adjustment clasp up relatively high on their torso.<br />
X or Y The choice between “Y” Back or “X” Back suspenders is primarily a matter of personal<br />
preference. The same suspender button spacing is used for both styles, so the two<br />
styles can be used interchangeably. Some folks feel the “Y” Back style is more comfortable<br />
if you are engaged in heavy physical activity which involves sideways movement of the<br />
torso, such as swinging a scythe. However, in most circumstances there is little difference<br />
in functionality between the “X” Back <strong>and</strong> “Y” Back suspenders.<br />
