Tired of matching belts and shoes?  Buckles and notches just becoming too much to manage?  Just don’t find belts all that comfortable, but you still kinda need one?  Well, Sansabelt has just the thing for you!  With its “unique, triple-zone, triple-action elastic webbing,” wearers of Sansabelt slacks get the benefits of a belt without all the hassle of mixing, matching, and getting the right fit.  Sansabelt does it all for you!

The Sansabelt was introduced in 1957 by Jaymar-Ruby, a manufacturer of high-quality men’s slacks based in Michigan City, Indiana.  Just a couple of years later, Jaymar started advertising their comfy slacks, and business sky-rocketed for the little company.  Though the slacks were popular, it eventually faced image problems during the free-flowing 60s.  The expensive slacks were identified with the older generation at the time, not to mention it had become a mainstay of “Big and Tall” stores. 

Sansabelt pants are available today, and believe it or not, some models even come with belt loops… you know… to appeal to a different, more hip, slack-wearing crowd.  As for the originals, they’re still out there: just check the waistline of the next out-of-touch teacher that passes you by.
