I allowed a Black Tie event to sneak up on me, which left me in the unfortunate situation of needing to get a new tux within a week's time. I was able to find a tux for a decent price, but the local store makes up for their lure of the decent price with the overpriced add-ons, like suspenders! Amazon Prime to the rescue, I found these, received them in the expected time, and saved dozens of dollars to boot. Very pleased with the suspenders. While not something you need every day, when you need them, you really need them!The size guidelines were accurate, and the suspenders are very easily adjustable, so as long as you follow the guide provided in the description you should be fine.For my particular situation, I already had a couple bow-ties, so the one included in this product was not needed, and not as nice as the ones I already had. Not a factor in my purchase decision, but if you need a bow-tie too, it would certainly do the job.
