Helsingin Olkain H-Model Suspenders, Recycled Cotton

You either wear a belt or suspenders, and this time it’s gonna be suspenders – take a look at these Finnish made quality suspenders from Helsingin Olkain. Made in Finland, and available in various colors!

Features

The strap of these recycled cotton suspenders is made from used denim – the used and torn jeans cloth is mechanically reduced to a recycled fiber, and then it is spun with other ecological fibers to a yarn.

To sum it up: The nasty, ripped, and awful jeans used by youth today are violently ground to a pulp, and then transformed into very stylish and dignified suspenders – this is done to accommodate, say, a more mature and sophisticated taste. Perfect!

• 1.4” / 3.5 cm wide H-model suspenders
• Metal suspender clips and adjustment buckles
• Plastic back slide adjuster
• Recycled cotton straps have a living, spotted color
• Strap material 92 % recycled cotton and 8 % elastane

Water saving manufacturing process

The yarn used for the straps is colored during its manufacturing process, so the coloring uses significantly less water than the traditional way, where the finished yarn is colored using up to 150 liters of water per one kilogram of textile.

Size info

The sizes mean the maximum distance between the suspender clips from the back to the front. So, measure your size with a measuring tape drawn from the back of the waist, over the shoulder, down to the front. Very simple. These suspenders can be adjusted for a much shorter length, of course.
