Men with fat overhanging bellies are constantly pulling up
the
front of their trousers, or engaging in fruitless belt
tightening
antics. What is needed is a new type of support, to
discreetly
pull the trousers upwards directly at the front.
Enter the Tie-Suspender. This is an otherwise
conventional
tie, but with the added bonus of a single adjustable
suspender
strap hidden on its back. When dressing, the more portly
gentleman puts on his tie, then snaps the concealed
suspender unto the front of his trousers. From now on,
when
the trousers begin to slip, he simply adjusts his neck and
upper tie knot, diverting attention from his nether regions,
but simultaneously pulling up his pants.

the trousers might be up in the front and still manage to be revealing a builders' bum at the back. |

how do you spell <choking sound> |

the plight of the fat business man is undervalued. + |

I'd be interested in the logistics of this. |
|

I would be afraid of the associated wedgie-risk. |

I would not worry about the associated wedgie risk as much as I would worry about the dowagers hump. Nonetheless you have my "+" |

I believe ack, cack, ach, urgle, blech and och are all acceptable. |

"My hump, my hump, my lovely manly lumps." |

I like the idea in general, but it needs to be developed further.
This needs to be an addon to existing ties, there are *a lot* of different tie designs, it's not feasible to produce a TS version of each. |

Really this is a front suspender, which is concealed by a tie. |

>discretely pull the trousers upwards < |
|

discretely : separately
discreetly : covertly, with little attention paid |
|
| |
I assume you mean "discreetly." |
|
| |
Possibly also useful as Dilbert tie tie-down. + |
|

you assume correctly and appropriately csea.....well

for your next idea, no matter what it is, and you can pick
up a tie on the way out. |

Cool; I'd start wearing ties again! |
|
| |
Maybe more than one at a time, even. |
|
| |
We advise wearers of the tie-suspender to refrain from storing heavy items in the trouser pockets as this can lead to strangulation. + |
