Losing me kecks!

As per the title.....can anyone recommend a really good set of braces, preferably with vice like clips? (Button types are not applicable).
My Oxford bike ones detach all the time.
Thanks and have a good evening, everyone.

Is this for workwear ???
I now use the toughbuilt stuff - BUT ONLY a DIYer

Yep, nearly 70 but still rolling around under cars and tap dancing on roofs......!
Thanks for your suggestion!

I've tried all sorts of braces with no sucess, the clasps always kept popping openen with movement until I came across these, admittedly mine were from the US but only took a week to arrive but they are now available on UK Amazon, hands down the best braces I've tried

Many thanks indeed!
I've never considered the caribiner type - food for thought there!

I have some of these which whenever I've worn them have never come undone, that said I don't wear them a great deal as I don't really like the way braces seem to restrict things when bending or kneeling down. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08JPL67LV/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I'd quite like to give bib and braces overalls a go.

I find the bib and brace overalls are great for joinery stuff but no good for rolling around under cars or whatever....certainly give them a try!

Hang on!
If you wear braces, when you bend over you won't show your builder's crack!
I don't think that's legal in UK...

wearing these now you can get others with tools on them and many different colours
