These suspenders are adjustable from 32" to 44". For elastic styles, this is an unstretched measurement. They are made to fit men up to 6'0" with normal builds, or up to 5'9" with large builds. If you are big (2X or larger) or tall (over 6'0), you might prefer our standard suspenders, which are 4" longer.
Measuring for suspenders: To measure for suspenders, take a fabric tape measure and measure from the front suspender button, over the shoulder, to the rear button.

best for 5'10"
originally ordered the standard ( long ? ) y back suspenders. They would have worked but were a bit to long. Exchanged for the " short " version, way better fit. I am 5'10" and slim build. Exchange handled no problem.

Black Bart's braces
Needed these to go with the period pants I ordered to play "Black Bart" hired gun in a local fund raiser melodrama. Great quality and the fit was exactly as advertised.

Perfect
The short suspenders fit my 5'8" husband just right. He's a musician and needed elastic type for ease of movement and comfort. Thanks for offering these.
Very Happy!

Y-Back suspenders
These suspenders are great with the wool trousers I also bought from Historical Emporium. I like the victorian style clothing and am glad I came across this site.

Works as expected
I rarely wear suspenders so for the first time they took me a few minutes to put on the pants I purchased. Other than that they're easy to adjust. Forgot I was even wearing them as the night went on!

They do the job in style.
I'm 5'6" and these are just right. Just the right amount of adjustment to accommodate high- or low-waisted pants. Well finished and high quality.
I made a mistake on the shipping ad dress so i emailed to customer service and they called me back, i was grateful for that response to correct that mistake and received my purchase before christmas cheers! for customer service...
