KLIM Standard Suspenders, Black, One Size

Very glad I found these! I dropped about 10 lbs since I bought my Badlands Pro pants and was cringing about the bath I was going to take selling my existing pair on eBay or advrider and buying a smaller size. Found these and figured I would give them a shot. They work great at keeping Klim pants where they need to be. Like another poster pointed out, they are really, really long. I'm 5'10" or so with a longish torso and to get them adjusted correctly the plastic slides are over the top of my shoulder and back on the top of my scapula. Klim must have some really tall customers! If the slides sat directly on top of my shoulder it would likely be a problem due to getting pressed down into my shoulders when wearing a Camelbak, but where they fall on me seems to be working ok.

Great to hold up my Klim pants!!! Comfortable and at a affordable price.

These suspenders are ridiculously oversized. I am 5'-11" high, and in order to get the suspenders to hold my pants up, the plastic slider buckles had to be pulled up past my shoulder and down onto my back. I suppose they would fit someone between 6'-6" and 7'-0" tall. In order to get them to work for me, I had to cut the stitching at the end of each elastic strap and pull about a foot of each strap through the sliders. There’s now nothing holding the end of each strap to the slider, but as long as I am careful when I adjust them, friction holds them in position well.Apart from the size, they work very well. The elastic is wide and comfortable. The back yoke which joins the straps into a "Y" is fairly thin, which means it’s quite comfortable even under a backpack. I use these to hold up my mountaineering pants (OR Cirque). They work well for that application, apart from the length.As other reviewers have noted, the back strap is very short, which makes the front straps so long that they can work their way off your shoulders, at least if the front straps are slightly loose. And the slider buckles which allow you to adjust the length of the front straps tend to loosen over time. However, both of these issues happen slowly and gradually; I only need to make adjustments every couple of hours or so.

I purchased these because I’m a Klim groupee. I hope they didn’t design these. I purchased these to keep the pants up without excessive tightening of the side straps. Didn’t stay on the shoulders. May have a better fit on big people but not me. I discovered I had a pair of suspenders from Outdoor Research and they are perfect for me. Highly recommend them.

Nice and sturdy. Thick velcro. Other reviews are correct. They slip to edge of the shoulder bc of low Y point in back. You may need a cross strap across chest like I bought to keep straps off edge of shoulder.

Have several KLIM kit. If the suspenders are loose on shoulders, cross the straps at your back, place front Velcro tabs at front pant internal tabs and re-adjust the plastic sliders, easy. I am 6ft. Crossing the straps at back has no comfort effects when sitting on chair back at dining, easy fix.

I tried to add these to my Klim Induction pants which have tabs sewn in the front for attaching these suspenders, however there is nothing sewn in the back just for the suspenders. I called Klim, and they want customers to use the hanging loop on the backside, however, when I tried that the waistline of the pants gets bunched up and is pretty uncomfortable. So, there is no good way to connect these to the back of the pants. I am going to return and try some clip on suspenders. I do not recommend these unless your pants have a dedicated spot on the back side to hook these too.

A: To keep their pants up! *sudden burst of laughter*Dad jokes aside, these suspenders work great. I wear them between two heavy riding pants (Klim Adventure Rally and Adventure Rally Air) to keep them up when I’m walking around. The Velcro makes them easy to get on and off but they’re always secure on the pants. My only gripe is that I’m 6’ tall and the plastic buckle ends up on top of my shoulders. I would guess shorter riders could end up with it all the way on their backs. That said, I never feel the buckle or even the suspenders themselves when wearing the jackets. All in all, they do what they’re supposed to do without you knowing they’re there. Good purchase.
