    A fly that uses a button closure instead of the typical zipper.

      I reckon it was a grammatical joke based on the incorrect apostrophe.

  I once got to do a tour of a historic fort, and when we visited the magazine the guide told us that garrisoned soldiers were issued wooden button fly trousers. They couldn’t use a zipper because a spark might set off the gunpowder, and also they hadn’t been invented yet.

  I use both, but I actually prefer the button fly. When you bust through the bathroom door and gotta take a piss, you’ll appreciate being able to unbutton them all instantly with one hand as opposed to the zipper which will break or jam.

    I have never gotten my beans or my frank involved in my zipper while wearing underwear.

  I have both kinds and I don’t really care really. I just buy the pants because I like how they look, don’t even check what kind of fly they have. I have the ones with a regular zipper and 1 button, zipper with 2 buttons, no zipper just buttons, a little hook thingy button and fly combination. There are more important aspects of pants for me, like the fit, feeling, price and how they look.

  They’re pretty common on raw denim, especially if it’s unsanforized (i.e. not preshrunk). It’s basically because when jeans stretch and shrink zippers look o weird (that weird zipper boner look). I dont think they’re any less convenient than a zipper once they’re broken in and you’re used to them.

  I loved them back when they were popular in the mid-late 2010s. Why? Confused people at the urinals.

  If the jeans look good, I don’t care if it’s buttons or a zip.

  One thing I will say, you ain’t catching your foreskin on a button.

  Once. By accident. Just grabbed a pair off a shelf that were labeled with my size and that was it. Hated them. So impractical.
