button fly

[Arthur Dent]

Plus zippers are just superior to buttons. What's the downside to this progress in pants technology? I'm a big fan of indoor plumbing too.

But you guys are seriously complaining about how hard it is to button your own pants - don't you see how absurd that sounds? YOUR OWN PANTS!!!

It's like trying to button the cuffs on a shirt...it's just awkward

Especially if you are wearing a belt that you don't want to undo when you pee like you're an eight year old. Keeping the belt buckled makes getting to that top button really hard, especially on jeans that are a bit stiff.

It isn't hard at all. Stick your thumb inside of your pants and button it just like you would the normal button on your pants.

Seriously, I can button as fast as I can zip these days. It just becomes natural after awhile.

But if you REALLY don't like the button fly, why buy jeans with buttons?

This question ran through my head while reading the thread. Why buy them at all? And two pair?

Honestly, I didn't know button fly jeans were around anymore. Thought that trend ended 15-20 years ago. But then, If you guys keep buying them, why wouldn't they keep selling them?

It's not that bad, to be honest. I got these jeans because they fit really well, and it was only when I got to the dressing room that I realized they had a button fly. I decided just to live with it.

Because it's usually only after I've spotted a pair of jeans that I like and am in the process of trying them on that I notice the button fly.

It's annoying but it's not a deal breaker for me.

The Levi's 501 button fly jeans have been their biggest seller for years. Once you get them broke in they are super easy to undo when it's action time.
