Braces Kit
to wear with early 1800s Trousers.

This is a kit for making the suspenders, or "braces", for which the pattern is given in our high waisted trousers pattern KK-4303.

The kit contains:
- 4 feet of strapping (1-1/4" wide)
- Pre-cut linen tabs for the adjustable buckle end and the rear button end of the strapping
- Two brass suspender buckles
- Instructions.

Required but not included:
- Thread
- 4 buttons 3/4” or 7/8” diameter bone buttons or button molds (to cover with fabric matching trousers) to sew to trousers.

Strapping is approximately 1-1/4" wide, and the colors and patterns vary. The price of the kit varies, depending on the strapping selected. Linen color and weight varies.

The style and construction of these suspenders or braces is inspired by the specifications in an 1812 French Imperial decree.
