Because your pants shouldn’t be around your ankles. That’s one reason, but they’ve become quite the fashion item as well. Suspenders were first worn in the 18th century as an undergarment. Since the 1960s, they've become an overgarment for fashion purposes and can be worn in a variety of social scenarios.

As long as you aren’t wearing both suspenders and a belt, you can mix and match suspenders in all sorts of ways. The most common top to wear suspenders with is a color shirt, but there’s no reason you can’t rock a regular tee with suspenders either. They now come in various materials, colors and prints so you can buy a whole range if you like. If you're looking for a pair or two of cheap suspenders, choose colors and fabrics that match your most common shirt type.

Width of fabric. You can find fabric widths of all ranges with the safe options in the 1 1/4” - 1 1/2” range. If you’re looking for functional suspenders, you’ll want wider fabric. Less than 1” and you’re wearing suspenders for trendy reasons only.
