If the leather jeans label is open on the sides, does the belt go under it or over it?

[AviatorTom]

Jeans typically have a leather label sewn into the waistband, above the right rear pocket. If the sides are open, (some are sewn on all sides) where should the belt go? Through (under) the label? Or on top of (over) the label?

Under the leather label

That leather or soft faux-leather/suede material label somwtimes imprinted with a art design, logo, and/or brand name along the belt line above a rear pocket is actually called the "Jacron."

Going over or under doesn't matter, since I never wear a a belt with jeans. Cowboy style belts that are often too thick and wide to fit through or under the jacron anyway generally get selected and paired with jeans. Being short learned a long time ago braided, westen, and other types of casual belts draw attention to waistline and because they are bulky, visually add weight and diminish perceived height. As such for years have only jeans that fit, wear them beltless, and always leave the loops empty.

It's not a belt loop.

Thanks for MHO!

I've just noticed non of my jeans have one. I definitely remember in the past jeans came with labels and I went over.

I just go over the label because it's easier, but I'm interested in seeing what other people do.

I used to put the belt under it.

[AviatorTom]

So did I, but I'm getting lazy in my old age, and I now go over the top.

I mostly wear Carhartt jeans and not Levis so there is no label in those.

@exitseven My SO buys Lee jeans for me, she says I look best in them... I've learned not to doubt her.

I used to wear them as well.
