A striking pair of black moire braces with contrasting red leather ends, handmade in England by Albert Thurston, the celebrated English brace maker established in 1820.
The black moire ribbon has a distinctive rippled finish that subtly catches the light, complemented by rich red leather button ends and polished gold-tone adjusters. The combination is bold without losing the traditional character of classic English braces.
Designed with leather button ends, the braces fasten to buttons positioned inside the trouser waistband rather than clipping to the outside, creating a cleaner and more refined finish. The black and red combination works particularly well with black, charcoal and navy tailoring, adding a discreet flash of colour beneath a suit jacket.
Albert Thurston has been making braces in England for more than 200 years and remains one of the world's most renowned names in traditional men's braces.
The brace ribbon is woven in England from a 50% cotton and 50% nylon blend. The runner ends are made from 100% Italian bovine leather, with brass-coloured fittings. Each pair of braces (suspenders) is supplied with six buttons for attaching to trousers.
