Best British braces: strong, secure, and comfortable for men of all sizes
-
Our British-made men's braces are strong, practical for everyday use, and smart for special occasions such as weddings. We stock clip end braces and leather end braces in many colours, and in various sizes for men of different heights, including very tall men.
As well as plain colours, we have Paisley pattern braces and braces with small Polka dots (pin dots).
We've been selling these braces for many years, and customers keep telling us how good they are. Here's a selection of feedback we've received about our extra-strong clip braces:
- "These clips are the best quality that I have seen on any braces. Will definitely be back for another pair." Mr Brian Johnson
- "Finally a pair of braces which fit and don't ping off when I stretch! A correctly and comfortably trousered, happy customer. Many thanks." Mr P. Crocker, Kent
- "These are the best pair I have had from anyone and really feel very secure. Thanks for a great and speedy service. Will be recommending this company to others and be using them again" R.K., Luton
- "Thank you for sending the braces. The heavy duty pair are excellent. Long enough to be comfortable and the fasteners are superb. For once I can bend down in the garden without the dreaded "twang" of the back fasteners coming adrift! Can you please send me a further two sets of the heavy duty braces in wine and mid grey. I did appreciate your follow up phone call this afternoon and the excellent personalised service." Peter Walton, Cumbria
- "The two sets of braces you sent have proved a very good investment.I wear one or the other each day on the sheep farm, and they never fail, unlike the shoddy Chinese attempts which were a constant source of irritation by giving way at awkward moments. I also wear them on visits to Sydney, in theatres and at the Royal Automobile Club of Australia. Compliments from us both." Mr J. Hookey, New South Wales
- "I just wanted to let you know my braces arrived on Thursday, only 4 days from my ordering them to come to Spain, while this in itself is fantastic, I also want to say thank you for your outstanding quality pair of braces which fit perfectly, the whole process of ordering to delivery has been excellent. Thank you once again." Mr R. Spilsbury, Spain

Roller towels take starring role in film!
-
Our traditional roller towels are playing a starring role in the recently released film The Keeper. The film tells the story of Bert Trautmann, who famously kept goal for Manchester City in the 1956 Cup Final while suffering from a broken neck. The blue striped towels are shown in the Wembley dressing room scenes.
It's been two years since we were first contacted by Julia Panholzer, the set decorator for Lieblingsfilm Produktions GmbH who were making the film. She was keen to acquire a set of the striped roller towels for the dressing room scenes. We were pleased to help, and dispatched a very large parcel of blue striped roller towels to her in Munich.
We were delighted to see the film, which we enjoyed very much. Congratulations to Julia and her team for creating such wonderful sets.
Our traditional roller towels are available in green stripe, red stripe, and neutral stripe, as well as blue stripe.
