On trousers, jeans, and skirts, there are back and front loops at the waist. They are intended for threading the belt. People don’t think about their name, but sometimes there is a need to somehow designate this small detail. What are these loops called where the belt is inserted?
Name of belt loops on trousers
To keep trousers in a strictly defined place, people use belts that are held in place by narrow strips of fabric. Such pieces are sewn around the waistband of clothing. They are called loops, which translated from German means “loose loop.”
Little details like this are essential. for the correct fit of dress pants. Belt loops can be found not only in the style of jeans or skirts, but also in dresses. They can be made of the same material as the clothing, or be contrasting to it. At the waist of a slender woman there are usually 5 loops: two pairs in front, two in the back and one loop in the back in the center.There are 6 belt loops in men's trousers: one more at the waist at the back of the belt.
Important! Different styles can vary the number of loops upward, and their number also increases with increasing clothing size.
Types of belt loops
The loops for holding the belt are made of two layers of fabric. Their standard width for men's clothing is about 1 cm. In other products they may be narrower. Depending on the material used, various belt loop processing technologies are used.:
- with double finishing stitch along the edge;
- with double stitching in the center;
- with one connecting line;
- without line;
- hanging loops made of thread.
Topstitched belt loops are intended for trousers, jeans, and skirts. For women's trousers made of light fabrics, loops are provided with the smallest number of stitches or without them at all; some products use loops woven in a special way from ordinary threads to match, or sewn pieces of thin cord.
How to properly insert a belt into trousers?
Everyone can do this, but follow our instructions to check if you are doing everything correctly:
- take trousers and a belt, pass the tail between the loops, starting from the right front for men or from the left for women;
- after the tail of the belt is pulled through all the loops, position the buckle in the center;
- fasten the belt and check whether the free part of the buckle is visible to the left if you are a man, or to the right if you are a woman;
- If everything is correct, then count which hole your belt is fastened to. The free length of the belt tail should not be more than 3 holes. If it exceeds the permissible limit, then the length of the belt needs to be adjusted.
>> check if the free part of the buckle is facing to the left if you are a man
I'm a man, and I wear it the other way around. and I don’t know a single man who would wear it the way you write.
>> The free length of the belt tail should not be more than 3 holes. If it exceeds the permissible limit, then the length of the belt needs to be adjusted.
who told you this? Belts are produced with 5-7 holes specifically so that they universally fit people with fairly different waist sizes without the need for any additional adjustments. Each one will fasten it to the right hole, the thin one will have a longer tail, the fat one will have a short one. And by the way, I would say that a short (less than 4 holes) tail looks worse and more undignified than a long (more than 3) tail.
Do you know the name of what the belt loops are sewn on? These are farms, also from German. What is the correct way to say in Russian when the belt loops are well sewn to the household? - “I, I, will give you a fantasy.”
And if you are a man, and the tail of the belt inadvertently looks to the right, then in Russian it should sound like this: “O main goth, shayze.”
What if you suddenly discovered that instead of 6 belt loops, you have, God forbid, only a bunch of belt loops on your household? So in Russian it is correct to say: “Schweine, das ist nicht fantastish, das ist Hitler kaput”
What is the name of this thing on the belt itself?))
