Like you mention I would benefit a system that would let my shoulders to bear the weight. I have a hard enough time walking normal, let alone something weighing my pants down is going to worsen my balance and gait.

Other options I was looking at:
Thunderwear/Kramer Tshirt (skeptical)
Truss Belly Band/Kangaroo carry/Deepconceal.com

Why don't you get a pair of non expensive suspenders on any retail store, loose jeans, any holster and any gun and do thet test? Just wear suspenders under tshirt if you are fashion sensitive and maybe wear a bigger size of shirt...?

I cannot wear shoulder holters but explored several possibilities when starting to conceal carry. Women have our own challenges. I evaluated suspenders, but never tried it as I found a good system that works for me. While trying, juts got the heavier gun I had in a cheap $10 pancake holster and play around where to carry it.

Yea I'm beginning to give up on carry options and about to just get a new bug that will stow anywhere. I still can't wear jeans comfortably yet. If I did I would be limited to 2-4 hours before pain and discomfort set in. I have suspenders at home and a clip holster for my M&Pc. I will try this out with athletic pants and see if it's remotely do able! Also will try my buddys shoulder holster, but like you said I don't think I will like it, and I think with my size it will print. Otherwise I'm afraid I'm going to try all different things, spend money, and end up realizing I should have just got a new gun!
