Suspender Parts
Replacement Parts to Keep Your Suspenders Going
A good pair of suspenders shouldn't end up in the drawer because one clip broke or a leather ear wore through. We stock the same clips, adjusters, leather ears, and buttons we use to build our own suspenders, so you can fix a favorite pair in minutes or set up your pants for button-on suspenders.
Replacement Clips
If a clip has lost its grip, swap it out instead of replacing the whole pair. Our 2 pin clips use pins and nylon teeth to hold tight on thicker fabrics like work pants and jeans. For a heavier grip, a chromed stainless steel clip is one of the strongest options available. Check our suspender attachment guide to compare every style side by side.
Suspender Adjusters
The adjuster is the slider that sets your strap length. When one starts slipping, your suspenders won't stay at the right height. Switching to a nickel flip and lock adjuster keeps the strap locked firmly in place all day.
Leather Ears and Drop Ends
Leather ears are the strips that fasten button-on suspenders to your pants, and they're usually the first part to wear out. Replace a single piece with a leather attachment ear, stock up using a 3-pack leather drop end, or choose heavy duty button ears for work suspenders taking heavy strain.
Suspender Buttons for Your Pants
To convert pants for button suspenders, choose from three convenient options:
- Sew-on buttons: sew-on plastic buttons install directly on the inside waistband.
- Hammer-on buttons: metal hammer-on buttons tap permanently into place with no sewing needed.
- Clip-on buttons: removable no-sew clip-on buttons attach instantly and move easily between different pants.
For complete conversions, a full set of no-sew metal buttons with leather ears covers multiple pairs of pants at once.
Store Them Right
Keep your suspenders untangled and ready to grab with a black walnut suspender holder.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I replace just one broken suspender clip?
Yes. There's no need to buy a whole new pair. Pick a replacement clip that matches the type and width of your current clips and swap out the broken one.
How do I add suspender buttons without sewing?
Use hammer-on metal buttons or clip-on buttons. Hammer-on buttons tap into the waistband and stay permanently, while clip-on buttons attach by hand and can be moved from one pair of pants to another.
What does a suspender adjuster do?
The adjuster is the slider on each strap that sets the length. A worn adjuster lets the strap slip, so your pants slowly drop through the day. Replacing it fixes the problem.
Why do leather ears wear out?
Leather ears take the full pull of your pants every time you sit, bend, or stand. Over time the button holes stretch or tear. Replacing the ears brings the suspenders back to a secure fit.
