The most BS statement I've heard concerning the subject was;
"The circumference of my waistline has exceeded the girth of my hips" and... I can't keep my pants up.
Whatever the term, I'v got a pair or 3 of suspenders. They work well till very hot weather. Not comfortable under a shirt, makes sweaty hot spots on top, and... messes up the ventilation properties of a nice, loose fitting fishing or Hawaiian shirt. Modern old fat man problems.
Cut off bibs with no shirt, side buttons undone, & commando, is probably the answer.
