I worn them. They're nice.

They're standard issue if you hang around punk-adjacent subcultures like rude boys or the not racist kind of Skinheads.

The frumpy corporate fashion of the 90s killed them

I like to wear them, but people always comment on them as if I'm making some kind of statement and I don't like that, so I rarely ever actually do wear them

Belts got cheap to make. Suspenders work better for larger gentlemen so when fashion turned to thinner bodies belts were the obvious choice.
