Brace Yourself - Albert Thurston

Braces Since 1820

These braces are from Albert Thurston, who have been making men's accessories since 1820. They were bought to go with the suit lining — racy but hardly ever be seen, my little secret. Gladly, the suit is no longer with us. I never got long with it.

Trousers hang better and feel more comfortable with braces rather than belt. It's a pity I have very few trousers that can accommodate a proper pair. Must do something about that.





Thurston supplied the braces worn by Daniel Craig, appearing as James Bond in Casino Royale. Part of their evening wear collection, they are produced in moire ribbon and white leather.
