Broken Belt Loops

[Cougsfan]

I am wondering if I am the only one with this problem... Nearly every pair of jeans I own have the one of back belt loops broken. It happens sometimes when I get out of my 4720CH cab and the belt loop catches on the latch pin for the door. It is such an imperfect world.

I had that problem long before I got a cabbed tractor.

Really no cure,I don't tuck in my shirt nor t shirt and had good luck so far.

Heck, if you have a cab, why ya wearin pants in the first place? Swim trunks would be my first choice!

Seriously, though, I’d just untuck my shirt.

One day I got my belt hung up on cab door, that was an interesting morning.

I went to my clothes drawer this morning to get a pair of jeans to wear, and I pulled out a pair that has all three belt loops broken on the rear. The jeans are close to new. I have to wear suspenders with them 'cause a belt just doesn't work very good without belt loops. My wife teases me, she says suspenders make me look 10 years older.

Hey Cougsfan - Good Morning. I've had various problems with jeans-type pants. I HATE suspenders. When I know that the going will be really tough - bib overalls. Big, loose - comfortable.

Every time i exit my 1140 rtv when wearing shorts.....the shorts get caught on the parking brake handle left of drivers seat.

i cut a 4 inch relief in the left leg of my work shorts.

Frankenkubota, lol, I have the same problem, with the same fix.

I cuss a little every time it happens. ‘Bout to take a hacksaw to the handle.

No problem for me, I wear bibs.

No issue here. I wear bibs.

 

[Cougsfan]

Knowing my wife, I would really be the butt of old man jokes if I started wearing bibs...... Maybe I will get some

When you hit 70, they become SOP, especially for farmers of which I'm one.

Nope, but I am transiting from my jeans to these new fangled "cargo pants" with the elastic waist band.
They work good with my suspenders which I have worn for the last 20 years.

I wear short around the house - all year. I've gone outside to work on projects wearing shorts. My lower legs still have many scars.

looks like you are pretty close to Nike? Maybe they will donate some new shorts to us with that problem?

the Nike campus is an amazing kind of isolated island in the middle of everything.

Not a suspender person. Far as elastic waistbands, those are for middle aged gals....

While I like the fit of pants & belt more, I find bibs to be the coolest (temperature wise!) thing to wear in the summer.
Long sleeved thin white shirt (button-up, cotton or linen) and bibs, keeps the sun off of you and maximum airflow. With pants & belt, air gets stopped at the waist; with bibs, just walking around you get a sort of bellows action and air keeps you cool(er). At least here, where it's really dry in the summer...
