Common Questions
What makes HIKERS® Co. suspenders unique?
HIKERS® Co. suspenders are made to be worn with your shirt untucked, without any bulky hardware protruding through your shirt. They're made in your size and are adjustable much like a belt.
Our unique, proprietary hook attachments are designed to be comfortable and allow you to rest assured they won't come undone.
We offer a 100% iron-clad guarantee and free size exchanges.
What is the difference between the HIKERS® and Upfitter® styles?
HIKERS® Button Fly Suspenders are made for folks who prefer to go untucked and are typically worn as a hidden undergarment. They attach to the front button on your pants or shorts and the center, rear belt loop.
Upfitter® Belt Loop Suspenders are made to be worn under or over your shirt and, rather than attach to your fly button, Upfitter® suspenders attach to your two front belt loops as well as one in the back.
All HIKERS® Co. suspenders are made to fit in your size and can be tightened like a belt by adjusting the hook on the rear strap.
How do I find my size?
How to Measure
For the perfect HIKERS® Co. fit, simply measure over your shoulder from your center rear belt loop to your button fly.
After you know your measurement, use our size chart to find your size. If you measure between sizes, order the larger size.
How Should They Fit?
Whether you're wearing our original button-fly or our newer Upfitter® belt-loop style, all HIKERS® Co. suspenders hold your pants in place with very slight tension distributed evenly over your shoulders. Keep in mind, it takes much less force to pull pants up than it does to cinch them on with a belt. You won't need to stretch them much more than a few inches to attach them to your pants.
When they fit just right, they should feel similar to wearing overalls.
ADJUST FOR COMFORT
HIKERS® Co. suspenders are adjustable much like a belt. That is, you start by purchasing the correct length, and tighten them up within a limited range to accommodate your daily needs, which might be affected by dinner last night or by how much you load up your pockets.
HIKERS® Co. suspenders are best fitted so that the largest adjustment is your starting size. Then you'll have two notches to tighten down from there.
Will they give me a wedgie?
Nope, wedgies don't happen with HIKERS® Co. suspenders when you order them in your size. It takes much less force to pull pants up than to cinch them on.
Wedgies don’t happen with HIKERS® Co. suspenders for two reasons:
- Your stomach stops them from inching up, and
- All HIKERS® Co. suspenders come in your size and are adjustable, so the upward tug is Goldilocks perfect.
Are they comfortable?
Absolutely! How often do you loosen your belt or unbutton your pants? Are you eager to get home at night and change into something more comfortable? When you’re wearing HIKERS® Co. suspenders, your pants can be a little looser because tightness is no longer a factor in keeping them from slipping down. See for yourself: just read a few of our verified Customer Reviews and then try a pair for yourself.
Why not just wear a belt?
If you're asking this question, you probably don't know how hard it is for some of us to keep our pants up. Whether it's noassatall syndrome or a belly pushing down your belt, for some of us belts simply don't work. And don't even get us started on how unhealthy it is to cinch your belt like a tourniquet around your vital organs all day long!
Won't they tear my belt loops?
Nope, it doesn't happen. Considering their construction, the stretch of the straps, and the fact that the weight is distributed evenly around your body, it's not a likely issue. Given the average weight of your pants (even loaded with your phone, keys, and wallet), there's less than a pound of force on your belt loops (and there's two sewn seams keeping that loop on tight).
More importantly, we tested these for a full year before launching and have now sold hundreds of thousands of pairs. We can confidently say that belt loops aren't failing with HIKERS® Co. suspenders.
How do I go to the bathroom? Do I have to disrobe?
Heading to the john could not be easier. HIKERS® Co. suspenders stay in place under your shirt so there’s no need to disrobe. Simply unhook and go about your business. About as quick as a belt and much faster than traditional suspenders.
Standing to pee with HIKERS® Co. suspenders is easy. Most guys don't unfasten them. Just unbutton your pants and let HIKERS® hold up your pants while you do your business. When you need to sit, you can leave your shirt on and try a couple of different options:
- Unfasten the rear hook only. Your suspenders will slide forward as you sit down. When you stand up, reach up your back to pull the hook down and refasten. If the hook climbs up your back a little bit while you're sitting and becomes hard to reach, just grab the straps near your shoulders to slide them back into position so you can easily reach your hook.
- If you're wearing the original button-fly suspenders, simply unfasten them from your front button, and then unhook the back but, before releasing the hook, pull it down until the front triangular patch slides up toward your neck. After taking care of business, rehook the back first, and then reach up and pull down the front tab to refasten at your fly button. (Thanks to Mike H. for this recommendation!)
