Description

Leather X-Back Suspenders

The X-Back Leather Firefighter Suspenders are handcrafted for those who demand quality, durability, and style. Made from 13/15 oz full-grain leather—the same premium material used in our firefighter radio straps—these suspenders provide superior strength while molding to your shape over time. Designed for maximum comfort and stability, the X-back configuration evenly distributes weight, ensuring suspenders stay in place all day. Whether you need them as a firefighter, contractor, or everyday wear, these suspenders are built to last.

Each pair features adjustable straps, allowing for a tailored fit across various body types. Choose from multiple widths (1.5″ or 1.75″), leather colors (Black, Q-Tan, Walnut, Natural), and hardware finishes (Black, Brass, Stainless Steel) to match your preference.

For connections, select between snaps or buttonhole attachments to fit your pants securely. Unlike elastic suspenders, our full-leather design won’t stretch or weaken over time, offering a more reliable alternative.

Looking to make them your own? Add single or double stitching, custom thread colors, or even veg tanned lining for extra comfort. Personalize further with custom stamping or image stamps such as state flags, emblems, or unique designs.

Premium full-grain vegetable tanned leather for durability and long-lasting wear
