Default Re: Button Fly Jeans... Whats the deal?

[ QUOTE ]
they're the original style. when levi's started making jeans (btw, some claim that only levis are "jeans", all others are denim trousers), they had button flies.

And I believe they had button flies because zippers hadn't been invented yet. So as zippers became available, traditionalists probably stuck with the button models, no doubt making fun of zipper users as unmanly.
