- I recently received an e-mail from Sal Herman. Here's what he had to
say:
Hello,
My name is Sal Herman. I'm the inventor of the Hold-Up Suspender which
features the patented "no slip clip". Several people that have purchased
these suspenders had remarked that they have crohn's & were extremely
grateful for this new product.
They had also recommended that I should introduce
it to anyone that has crohn's, because they normally wear
their pants loose and need suspenders to hold them up. You may view these
suspenders @ http://www.suspenders.com
(don't miss the incredible testimonials)
Sincerely,
Sal Herman
