Dear Sir, I'm in the market for braces for the first time. I'm a bit lost in the very wide offering of a very famous british maker. Leaving elasticated and clip on models aside, I'm left with : silk braces (which I understand to be made partially of polyester, which I'm not too keen on), boxcloth models (aren't they too hot in the summer ?), bamboo and a wide array of lighter fabrics which I fear will rapidly be prone to fraying. Any advice ?

Albert Thurston produceert de mooiste handgemaakte bretels. Albert Thurston wordt ook wel gezien als de uitvinder van de moderne bretellen. Ontdek britse stijl en klasse met de mooiste Albert Thurston collectie. In dit artikel leer je alles over dit mooie merk.
  De historie van Albert Thurston
In 1820 opende meneer Albert Thurston zijn allereerste winkel in Londen. Toendertijd op Panton Street, Haymarket. Een bekende straat om mooie herenmode te kopen toendertijd, vergelijkbaar aan Jermayn street (bekend van de overhemden). Het was hier dat Albert Thurston de moderne bretellen uitvond. In de tijd van Albert Thurston was het mode om een broek met hoge band te dragen. Een riem is dan uiterst oncomfortabel. Albert Thurston had hier een oplossing voor: bretels, ook wel suspenders genoemd in het Engels.
Eervolle vermelding voor Albert Thurston
Het jaar 1851 was een groot jaar voor hem. Dit was het jaar dat hij beloond werd voor al zijn harde werk. In 1851 ontving Albert Thurston namelijk een eervolle vermelding op de Great Exhibition. Dit is een toonaangevende wereldtentoonstelling over cultuur en industrie. Waarom? Om de prachtige afwerking en het draagcomfort van deze bretellen. Nu bijna 200 jaar na oprichting staat het Britse merk nog steeds bekend om haar hoogwaardige kwaliteit materialen en afwerking.
  Voor de elite of voor iedereen?
Bekende voorbeelden van de Albert Thurston dragers zijn: Michael Douglas in ‘Wall Street’ , Steve Martin in ‘Leap of Faith’ en niet te vergeten Daniel Graig in de James Bond films. Impliceert dat dat bretels alleen voor de elite zijn? Natuurlijk niet! Bretels zijn voor iedereen. Of het nou Jort Kelder is, de moderne hipster of je wat vollere oom. Bretels geven iedereen net dat extra beetje stijl en klasse.
Albert Thurston: Van welke materialen?
De materialen gebruikt in de Albert Thurston bretels zijn zeer divers. Voor de lussen wordt gebruik gemaakt van hoogwaardig geitenleer. Dit is een sterke en comfortable ledersoort. Verder worden de "bretels" zelf gemaakt van hoogwaardige materialen waaronder canvas, boxcloth, elastiek, zijde, satijn, kamgaren, moiré en Hardy Minnis wol.
Waar koop ik Albert thurston online?
Albert Thurston is gemakkelijk online te bestellen op de site van de Nederlandse bretels specialist: bretels.nl. Een grote en diverse collectie moderne suspenders voor de echte Dandy. Verschillende lengtes, breedtes zodat ze geschikt zijn voor iedere man.

It’s rare to see a well-dressed man without a belt these days. However, the leather belt as a practical garment is a fairly recent invention. Prior to the First World War, belts were largely decorative outside of military uniforms (and even then were often more decorative than practical among officers and aristocrats). The traditional device for holding up a man’s trousers was a pair of suspenders. To this day, suspenders remain the preferred method to hold up a pair of trousers by many fine dressers. Suspenders (which are called braces in the United Kingdom, where suspender refers to a garter belt) are straps of cloth that go over a man’s shoulder and down to the front of his trousers, where they either clip or button to the waistband. Most suspenders join in the back in either an X-shape or a Y-shape, to keep pairs from being separated, but they can be bought as two individual straps as well. Construction can vary depending on brand, with suspenders being made in materials ranging from pure silk to synthetic rayon; woolen boxcloth is a traditional and durable staple. We carry them with button or clip on it your preference.

That every one girls kill the model they love may with reality be mentioned of the passion which raged for that Empire belt, for it grew smaller by levels and grotesquely much less when it commenced its profession instantly beneath the arm, pushing the bust beneath the throat, presenting however an apology for a bodice, and needing the fully slim determine to resist its liberties with any diploma of decorum. Decorum was, nonetheless, not amongst its ambitions.
For strolling put on the excessive waist was no much less a desideratum, and fabric skirts, lengthy and full, have been accomplished by quick velvet coats with lengthy tight sleeves, vests of white, and shares of black.
