Re: The Rivet Guard on Jeans?

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

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!


@Harpa 

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'm sure you look nice in jeggings.   I'll never get there

@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!

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

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!
