The Rivet Guard on Jeans?

Harpa — Mon, 09 Nov 2020 13:21:01 GMT

Do these work? To prevent your tee shirts from those tiny holes?

I'm trying them out. But they sure are hard to get on! I was struggling several times last week....no dice! It took my DH all of 1 minute!

Never heard of this. More info please. Where did you get this? QVC, Amazon, a store?

I have never seen these either. I have heard people talk about getting little holes in their tee shirts but it has never happened to me.

Never mind. I took it off. I couldn't put it through the hole. I could have if I struggled. All I could think of was trying to undo it and re-do when using the powder room. I didn't want to be in there 10 minutes struggling and muttering expletives.

Never tried them and never had holes due to riveting. Could the tee be the issue?

I'm using Jeanie Clip where you can take it on and off for other jeans/pants.

I use Beltaway, which is an elastic belt with a flat fastening in the front. Although it's intended to prevent that little bulge in front from the rivet, it also prevents a hole since it totally covers the rivet. It comes in colors as well as black and white. Easy to use and mine have lasted for years. The site is beltaway dot com.

I love those belts! For an hourglass, it keeps us from having that triangular wedge in the back of our bottoms!

I can easily wear my leather belts over them. I get mine on amazon.

@ECBG

I only wish I were an hourglass! I'm pretty much a rectangle - only thing curvy is my posterior. I wear the beltaway to stop the little bump from the rivet poking out - and to keep my jeans up. I don't tuck, so it's the only belt I need.

I sure hope the company survives this economic down turn.

I've never experienced holes in my shirts from a pair of jeans or any other pants for that matter. Are any of you who get these little holes smokers perhaps? Have small pets that climb on you like furniture? LOL

@Andreatoo me neither, and I wear jeans and T-shirts 99% of the time in summer, sometimes tucked and sometimes not. And I only get one or two new T-shirts a year, usually a charity one, so nothing special.

Lord, at my age, I certainly don't need anything impeding me from getting my pants down for the potty.

Actually, yes, lol.
When I was a teenager I modeled for local department stores. They always chose me to wear the teeniest bikinis, which I thought was strange, since I wasn't curvy. I was told that no one would be offended by a skinny girl in a bikini!

See Gorgeous?

I modeled and did newspaper ads for a boutique in Biltmore Village outside of Biltmore House in my 20's. Leggings weren't involved! lol!!!

No. For me, they have come from wearing untucked tees (the main offenders in my case were some lighter weight cotton/rayon/spandex ones from Lands' End) and leaning against the counter while doing things in the kitchen. After a while there were tiny breaks in the fibers that made small holes in the area of the "button" at the waist.

No smoker here! No climbers, either.

Maybe it's from thinner fabric? (which I like sometimes) But that was not the case, either with this one tee I got.

Maybe I just ought to get pull ups! (That just isn't me!)

I'll tuck!
