Just last year I discovered that there is a trouser moth in my wardrobe , they eat the tops of trousers and jeans.  All my below the waist garments were 34 "  now they don't fit anymore .I went to my local walking street and bought a fine pair of trousers size 36" , they will fit .....soon.

Beware the Trouser Moth.

Beware  more of the trouser  snake!!

Depends on the shirt....If a Thai style untucked I usually don't wear a belt....If the shirt is tucked in I'll wear a belt that complements/coordinates the colors I'm wearing.....

I'm not big on wearing belts, but have a good selection to choose from - including a nice Tony Lama belt with a couple of cowboy style buckles (never have worn here).....

I had an amusing incident a while back when flying down to Bangkok for the day. I'd lost a bit of weight and my shorts were rather loose. So when it came to security and was asked to remove my belt, I had to walk throught the detector holding then up.

 

Then came the dilemmma bit, I was asked by the (female) security person to hold out my arms for the magic wand bit. Big dilemma, no underwear!

 

I managed to talk my way out of it! ????

Used to wear one to hang things or clip things to it.

 

Then it was to hold up the pants because the gut got too big

 

Then lost weight and got in better shape and dont wear one at all.????

 

So, there you have my "belt" life story..  ????????

You must wear different type of trousers than any on mine...  When I lose weight the trousers are 4" + to big so fall down.

Used belts for years, to keep the 501 up and the boots gloam.

 

Then uses braces for a while. But once a string hit one of my eyes.

 

It was belt all again.

 

Then stopped again the trousers shrunk so the need for a belt was gone

 

And started again as the elastan wore out

 

 

And it will be useful one of these days

some of us know how we carried our books

Many whom I see today are beltless and the crotch is close to the knees. The rear of the underwear is in full view, the rear of the jeans below the underwear.

NOT a pretty site.

There are ways to avoid that.

To keep my trousers up. Most trousers fit just fine, but one or two are just a little too wide. If my trousers become a tight fit it's a sign that I should watch what I eat a bit more. Haven't changed size in years.

Because I always wear jeans and jeans just don't look right without a buckle at the front.

 

Curiously, I find that a simple belt also gives back support. Strap on my jeans and tighten the belt and I can feel my back relax. Probably psychosomatic rather than anything else.

I wear trousers, long ones with four zipped pockets, and have a tie up cord to hold them up, having no gut it is just perfect, although I wear thicker trousers on motorbike road trips which require a belt, and occasionally denims.
