Braces
What do you call the leather loops that connect your braces to the buttons in your pants? I broke one and need to buy some in case it happens again. Any idea where you can buy them, even on mail order?

Re: Braces
Does anybody know where to get the leather belt loops that attach the pants top the brace? I broke one and would like to buy a few. I can't get them in Australia apparently ringing around.

Re: Braces
I thought if you popped into a decklic store they might be able to help you out.
I'm sure Ive seen somewhere packs of them in different colours so you can swap them around. It might well be just in my vivid imagination.

Re: Braces
Theres at least one place here B&M - I forget its name that sells real repro Zoot suits etc and stuff like braces too - I'll try to remember.

Re: Braces
Dropped into a declic store while walking past today at top of Collins in the hotel bit there - no leather braces left at the moment and bloke had never heard of separate little leather bits.
I'd suggest a bit of hay bale string or black electricians tape.

Re: Braces
Contact Albert Thurston - http://www.albertthurston.com - and ask if they will sell you some leather ends (as they call them).
Contrary to lies of FNB and Woofboxer, I (and most of the other "Buff Bastards") have been banned from posting on this forum. There are only a few posters left so don't waste your time on here. This forum is dead and nobody cares.

Re: Braces
Thank you Your Grace. I bought the set of three from eBay and will keep Albert Thurston in mind for future purchases.
