Cory mentioned that he had another pair of pants with a belt just like it, but he never wears the belt, because he doesn't know how to fasten it. He had tried pulling it through the rings and tucking it into a belt loop, but it just didn't stay. So I explained - you put the end of the belt through both rings and then bring it back through one of them. He still didn't get it, so I had to demonstrate. Through both rings, back through the top one:
Silly kid. Why didn't he just ask in the first place?
LOL - sorry, just came through to your blog while I was actually googling HOW TO FASTEN A CHILDS D-RING belt, I'm a mother of two (4 and 6mths) and I hadn't a clue how to do it, I thought I was doing it wrong as its not the tightest hold on the pants! So your son isn't the only one who couldn't figure it out LOL (and I'm 28!)
ReplyDeleteI just have to say that I have a master's degree and my husband has a four year degree as well. However, after not wearing his new belt for a couple weeks, we both had to google "how to fasten a belt" as well. Thanks so much!
ReplyDeletethank you....im a pediatric ct surgeon...could not figure out the belt for my son
ReplyDeletedamn..thanks..i couldnt figure this one out for my life.... sadly..im an engineer.
ReplyDeletehaha, real talk. I couldn't figure it out either.
ReplyDeleteI actually figured this out in a few minutes while playing around with one at Target the other day. I never saw these kind of belts before and I was trying to figure it out because I liked the color. It just looked weird fastened that way and someone gave me a funny look so I thought I was doing it wrong.... maybe they were just laughing at the fact that I had the belt around my stomach while trying to figure it out and not where the belt would normally be worn.... hahaha but thanks! I'm glad to know I was doing it right :)
ReplyDeletethats too funny... now i don't feel some dumb apparently i'm not the only one who didn't know how to fasten one of these buggers lol
ReplyDeleteWhat about the ones with just the one D-rings? (I recently bought a d-ring belt recently withdouble loops, could not figure it out! Thanks, but I still have a pretty one with only one ring I have never worn because I didn't know how to fasten the sucker, still dont....)
ReplyDeletecan't belive i have had to look at this, i had one on another pair of Jean, just put some new ones on and couldn't figure it out despite having always done it atuomatically in past...what a silly head...
ReplyDelete*sigh* how depressing that i had to look this up, i tried all sorts of combinations. the reality is that's it's quite simple once you know how to fasten it. at least i'm not alone. Thank you for the info.
ReplyDeleteMy friends dad teaches biology at Harvard, and as part of the dress code they have to tuck their shirts in, so when he came back home i was still at my friends house and i saw how he had fastened his D-ring belt. I thought it was right until I read this post! So apparently even Havard professors' can't get things right sometimes. :)
ReplyDeleteWell I'm not the only one who had to google this, lol.
ReplyDeleteI'm a rocket scientist, and I couldn't figure it out!! Thanks a lot!
