When it comes to quality gear, your comfort is always a priority. That’s why the team at Arcade reimagined traditional suspenders for outdoor use, creating stretch suspenders that move with you – perfect for holding up your snow pants. Whether you’re new to outdoor suspenders or a seasoned pro, we put together a guide to 5 benefits of wearing suspenders on your next outdoor adventure.
1. Mobility and Comfort
One of the most immediate benefits of swapping your belt for suspenders is the increase in comfort and mobility. Whether you're hiking, climbing, or skiing, flexibility matters. Belt suspenders distribute support to your shoulders, allowing you to move more freely and focus on the activity at hand – without the constant need to adjust your pants.
2. Maintaining a Proper Fit
In the outdoors, the fit of your gear can make or break your experience. That’s why we recommend adding suspenders to your ski or hike wardrobe: to make sure your pants fit snug around your waist, giving you the flexibility to move.
3. Streamlined Silhouette for Layering
The first rule about dressing to get outside? Dress in layers. So you can stay comfortable and adapt to changing weather conditions throughout the day. Snow pant suspenders offer a streamlined silhouette, making layering more efficient and preventing uncomfortable bunching and snagging that happens when putting on or removing layers.
4. Unique Style and Personal Expression
Besides their practical benefits, suspenders are a statement of personal style and expression while outside. With a variety of colors and patterns available, ski suspenders let you stand out from the crowd, or mix and match with the rest of your outfit.
5. Durability
When the going gets tough, you need gear that’s durable enough to handle it. Our suspenders are built from long-lasting webbing durable enough to handle years of adventures to come. When you’re done for the day, throw them in the washer with the rest of your outfit for an easy clean.
The team at Arcade takes function and freedom of movement seriously. That’s why we designed our collection of hiking suspenders from heavy-duty webbing and no slip metal clips: so that you can strap in, and venture out.
