Belt over the patch or under the patch? Which do you prefer and why?

@madmonday:

love this thread, great job Deebo.

Thanks MM!

Definitely under.  First pair of jeans that I've ever owned that gave me an option of doing so.  Would be a sin to cover up that thick leather patch if you ask me.

If the jeans let me, I go under. They obviously wanted me to do it that way

[madmonday]

way to pull all those images adam313.  seems a valid argument could be made with a little bit of evidence to support it.

despite anyone's personal reasons, i do love that folks are so serious about the way they wear & treat their goods

when i first got my 634S, i wore it under. but then the stitching began coming off so its over now. plus a bit of evo is always good.

once i get the stitching fixed and some decent evo, i'll go back to under.

Ive been looking for this very thread for awhile, and today I found it.
Ive alway been an OVER guy for as long as Ive worn pants.
Even with certain models that allowed you to go under, for some reason I never liked the idea of being a billboard for companies with all their branding.
That changed with my first pair of IH 666 21`s that I got two weeks ago.
I am now wearing my belt UNDER for the simple fact that these patches are really like art.

Over. Just cuz it’s easier at 5:00 a.m.

Why even bother with a belt at  5:00 ? Ha
Just kidding man…but god is that a harsh hour of the day!

My belt stays in my jeans even when I am not wearing them…..

im with you on that @Giles
Especially when time is of the essence

[neph93]

I almost do that but I like having a lot of jeans in rotation. I also have four belts and have been known to consider how to pair belts and jeans with boots and jackets. Sometimes I am a little ashamed of myself…. I’ll start moisturising next...

[Giles]

Or making bread…..

[dinobarnesberlin]

I don't know..
Is that so wrong?

my current rotation consists of the following-

IH-666S-21….but looking to expand;)

[neph93]

Making bread is manly af. You can burn yourself, and it’s basically chemistry. I started baking with buns and sweet doughs, so sourdough is a step up for me in that respect. The idea of moisturising makes my teerh itch though.

I wear my belt under when possible because it really helps fit to have an extra belt loop in that location. I sometimes wish there were one on both sides!

Im watching you "Bread Guys Baking Bread" and am thinking to myself–
"These Guys are Ali like science and shit up in here" but at the same time...nothing but respect for all of you that are in it!

Combo sunscreen/moisturizer every day for the last 20 years. After I got a bad sunburn on my freshly shaved, pasty white head once in college I decided that was not something I ever wanted to happen ever again.  Straight sunscreen smells too strongly and is usually greasy and unpleasant, so here I am…

Oh, and like Giles, I leave my belt in my jeans at all times (under the patch).
