Keeping my pants up

[kyle evs48]

Hahaha I feel like a little kid. The belt that came with my hockey pants broke a while ago. What's a good way to keep them up?

Suspenders. Very "old school", but very effective.

It's all personal preference.

Option 1: Go to the store, get a new belt.
Option 2: Go to the store, get some suspenders.
Option 3: Go to the store, get an aftermarket hoverpants module. Don't forget the flux capacitor, they're always sold separately.

In a desperate pinch, you can always wrap sock tape around your waist or fashion a belt out of skate laces. Neither is an effective long-term solution.

Man, you can't see a built in reason to buy new pants when it's staring you in the face?

Just kidding, suspenders are probably the best idea.

You can buy new belts.

Suspenders kill my back. I tried them once since I had pants that the buckle would pop open on and the pants would be falling down and I'd have to skate with my legs pretty wide until I could get off the ice or there was a faceoff. Those were a pair of old a Bauer vapors, and I will never buy another pair with that type of buckle.

Ummm.... skates string?

Just wear suspenders if you really need to.

I had that problem for a while... until I bought new pants that fit better.
For some reason though, my socks still won't stay up.
