Six button pants query

[TerryB]

I'm not a reenactor, but since I'm losing weight and don't like to tighten my belt to where it's uncomfortable, I need pants with six buttons. I ordered some period suspenders from Dixie Gun Works and spent over an hour sewing six buttons on one of my current pair. I don't want to go to that much trouble again. The problem I have with clip-on suspenders is that they un-clip too much of the time. So I'm looking for an online sutler that sells period pants with the six buttons already sewn on.

Most sutlers provide trousers with buttons already attached; I use S&S in Gettysburg, PA. The proprietors, Tim and Debbie Sheads are two of the nicest and most honest people in the hobby. Their inventory is expensive, but dead-on authentic and sewn to last. IMHO they are the best in the hobby and you get what you pay for.

Thanks guys. I couldn't tell from the websites I've been looking at whether the buttons came attached or not.
