This really irks me - Levi Jeans cut back on belt loops on all their models, from 7 loops to 5.

I noticed after 6 months of a new pair of 560's that my belts were getting to a v shape and then the right side belt loop tore out halfway on the bottom - then a couple days later it tore off completely. I've been wearing Levi's for 40 years and this never happened with 7 loops.

So I bought Carhartt's Relaxed Fit (much less at $29) and I think I'm going to try a pair of Wrangler's, too.


Thanks a bunch Levi. Cut costs and lose a customer who knows where to stick it to ya - at SimHQ!

Thanks for keeping us in the loop.

Hohoho.

My Wranglers have seven. They better not cut back to five loops. I'll get real mad.

Well, I'll be disappointed anyway.

Could not agree more, now that my son wears my size, he loves my castoffs. He prefers the ones
with holes in them. No loss to me. If the pocket won`t hold my keys they are his. My Wranglers
fit great. I prefer the regular fit and they better keep the 5 belt loops.

Going to need to buy some more, turns out the ones I am wearing have hole in the pocket and I
can feel my keys poking me again.

Carhartt FTW (although a bit pricy).

I have a pair of casual, loose fit jeans that only have 5 loops and I can say for certain that if I ever did any kind of physical labor in them they wouldn't last a day!

I have two pairs that of 5 loop that i cut down into boardie type shorts ...summer . I just turn my belt over , one side is a dull back and the other is a double stitch pattern..voila..no v You gotta have a wide belt though , not them skinny girly ones.And yes they last the test of physical labour

I've been converted to camo surplus for the last several years. Full length and shorts available locally for 10 to 20 bucks. Last a long time, lots of pockets, shed dust well, dry quickly, and have full count of belt loops.

There's something to be said for ripstop.

Am I the only one counting loops on their jeans now? Never thought about it. LOL
I get mine at Bass Pro these days, their Redhead label is pretty good. 7 loops I'm proud to say!
