Bretelles

Suspenders are primarily designed to hold trousers at the correct height, distributing weight evenly across the shoulders, unlike belts that exert pressure on the waist. This feature provides greater comfort for long periods, especially in professional environments where mobility and appearance are essential. For professionals in sectors such as catering, hotels and services, RAG Tailors suspenders offer the added benefit of keeping the shirt aligned and in place, even after frequent movements, ensuring impeccable presentation throughout the work shift.

There are several types of suspenders adapted to professional needs. The X or Y-shaped models refer to the design of the straps on the back: the X shape crosses the straps on the back, offering greater stability; the Y shape joins the straps at a single point, being more elegant and traditional. As for fastening, there are two main types: with clips, which allow immediate use on any trousers; and with buttons, which require specific buttons sewn on the inside of the waistband of the trousers, offering a more elegant and professional appearance. At RAG Tailors, we offer options in different widths, from thin models (2.5 cm) to wider versions (3.5 cm), suitable for different professional contexts.

When choosing the ideal suspenders for corporate uniforms, you should first consider the type of activity carried out by your employees. For jobs that require constant movement, we recommend X-shaped models with greater elasticity, made from durable materials such as RAG Tailors' premium microfibers, which withstand frequent washing and maintain their elasticity. For formal corporate environments, Y-shaped suspenders with button fastening in neutral colors reflect elegance and sobriety. It is also essential to consider the company's visual identity, which is why we offer customization services with embroidery or logos, perfectly adapting the suspenders to the desired corporate image.

Premium quality suspenders such as those offered by RAG Tailors use a variety of materials that directly impact their durability and performance. Premium elastic straps, made of polyester and elastane, ensure long-lasting elasticity even after intensive use. For demanding professional environments, we offer antibacterial materials that are bleach-tolerant and washable at temperatures up to 90°C, ideal for the healthcare and food sectors. Stainless steel metal components (springs, adjusters and fasteners) prevent corrosion even after frequent washing. In more elegant options, we use genuine leather and brushed metal details that maintain their impeccable appearance for years, even with intensive daily use in a professional context.

Customising suspenders for corporate uniforms at RAG Tailors is a simple and efficient process. We offer three main methods: embroidery with your company logo or name, which provides a stylish and long-lasting finish; printing, ideal for more complex or colourful designs; and screen printing, perfect for large-scale production. To request this service, simply send an email with the required references and the high-resolution image to obtain a personalised quote. The delivery time for customised orders varies between 10 and 15 working days, ensuring quality even in large volumes. This service is particularly sought after by hotels, restaurants and companies that want distinctive uniforms.

To maximize the durability of your suspenders, we recommend specific care depending on the material. RAG Tailors’ microfiber and technical fabric models can withstand frequent machine washing at temperatures up to 60°C for standard models and up to 90°C for professional antibacterial versions. It is advisable to wash colored suspenders separately for the first few washes to avoid color transfer. For models with leather elements, we recommend cleaning them with a damp cloth only and leaving them to dry naturally. Always avoid drying your suspenders directly in the dryer or exposing them to the sun for prolonged periods, as excessive heat can compromise their elasticity. When not in use, it is best to hang them on hangers to maintain their original shape.

Suspenders are extremely versatile and can be adapted to a variety of professional settings, but with specific considerations for each sector. For the hotel and catering industry, they are ideal when paired with long-sleeved shirts and waistcoats, creating a stylish and functional look. In the healthcare sector, RAG Tailors’ antibacterial designs offer superior practicality and hygiene. For events and catering services, custom-made braces add a distinctive touch to the uniform. However, for roles that require bulky protective gear or mandatory jackets, they may not be the most practical choice. Our specialist consultancy team can help determine the feasibility and the most appropriate style for each type of uniform and professional context.
