Do you wear accessories on your belt? [Archive]

I was wondering this. I for one, do not wear anything on my belt because it always looked silly to me when a person had a cellphone or a pda protruding from their waist line.

However, I have been more and more intrigued by this concept. Imagine how convenient it would be to have a multi-tool always available and not taking valuable pocket space.

Thoughts?

Who started this ugly rumor? There is no truth to it at all! I keep it in it's sleeve and in my pocket. Not clipped on like some leotard wearing, fruitcake, super hero wannabe.

Dockers, a tucked in golf shirt, and a cell phone on your belt has become the uniform of "hillbilly corporate" America.

I would rock one of these but I don't want to put any more strain on my belt than is necessary.

Never. I don't see the convenience in it unless you never sit down.

By the way, this was my first cell phone -

I carry a 13 inch Bowie knife on my belt to encourage my patients to brush and floss more

Unless its part of a uniform, why are you even wearing a belt? Get some pants that fit.

Let me guess, suspenders?
If you are wearing pants, you should wear belt. Otherwise cut off the belt loops. And never, never, tuck in a shirt without wearing a belt.

Just today I finally found a belt pouch for my Blackberry Bold. I will start wearing it there again. I hated havibg to keep it in my pocket. I hate the idea of dust and humidity effecting the phone and I had to only find shirts that had pockets for the fucking phone. I'd never keep a cell in my pants pocket. I was easy quick access. The case that came with my phone was way too tight for the phone while in the silicone sleeve. I found what I was looking for in a police supply store in Westbury.

So, instead of subjecting yourself to the torture of wearing a belt you limit your wardrobe?
Seems reasonable.

I'm rocking a money clip these days and sometimes I leave the chain on and attach it to my belt. Like some high school punk.

I don't get the wallet on a chain gimmick. I have yet to lose a wallet due to its jumping out of my pocket.
What exactly is the purpose? Is it just an excuse to wear a thick chain? Comes off as a fashion accessory, something, as a hetero male, I try to limit.

Yeah, I don't wear belts.

You know where you see guys with flair on their belts? The courtesy van to the rental car place at the airport. Just lots of guys in corporate logo golf shirts and cell phones clipped to their belts.

And bluetooth earpieces.

The middle management uniform.

Well, its a money clip. The clip wraps around a wallet-like holder. The clip is attached to the chain. If it was just a wallet, I'd never use the chain.

I guess its a fashion accessory but its not some long chain. Most people couldn't even see it. Maybe i'm part 'mo.
