People are only just realising what the loop on jeans is really used for & their minds are totally blown
PEOPLE are only just realising what the loop on your jeans is really used for after one person sparked a huge discussion online about it.
The loop is usually located beneath the pockets next to the leg seam.

But since one fashion fan flagged it – people have been trying to work out what exactly it’s used for.
The anonymous person shared their confusion on the online forum called Reddit.
They took a picture of their jeans, which was zoomed in to a small loop which was beneath the pocket on the dark blue jeans.
The fashion fan then shared a picture on the site with a caption asking other users to help work it out.
It read: “What is the purpose of this in a pair of jeans?”
The post attracted lots of attention, with others confused as to why the jeans had this mysterious loop.
One joked: “It’s to literally catch on every edge you didn’t realise was there. Nail sticking out 0.2mm yeah, it’ll find it.
“Running late and rushing to catch the bus, yeah, that door handle has other ideas.”
Another added: “They work great for ripping off cabinet doors when you accidentally walk close enough for the loop to catch one of the handles.”
Whilst someone else simply stated: “[It’s for] swag.”
However, others seemed to work out what it is exactly for, with one stating that it is a “hammer hoop.”
According to trouser company Make Your Own Jeans, the mysterious hoop is what makes the difference between cargo and carpenter pants.
Carpenter pants need pockets and bonuses like the loop, to help hold some of their equipment whilst out on jobs.
The website states: “If you inspect a pair of carpenter jeans, you’ll notice they have a loop on one or both pant legs.
“The loop is typically placed about six or so inches below the main pocket.
“Many carpenter jeans also have a small vertical pocket directly below the loop.
“Known as a hammer loop, it’s used to store and carry a hammer.

Fashion editor reveals the 90s trends that should stay in the past
NINETIES and noughties trends especially have become a hit with Gen Z – most likely because they didn’t wear them the first time round. Here, Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale gives the rundown of some of the trends that have made a comeback that we wish did not.
Disc belts
“A hit with celebrities like Victoria Beckham and Blake Lively, the belt itself did nothing that a belt should actually do – it was a mere fashion statement, not a piece to actually hold anything up.
“And it seems it’s not just me who is enraged by its return, with many taking to TikTok to give their views, saying: ‘Oh no not the disc belt! I don’t think I have the energy for it a 2nd time around’ – I feel you.”
Jelly shoes
“After not being seen on shelves for decades, they’ve made a reappearance and this time they’re not just for kids.
“Coming in a range of colourful patterns, you can get them all over the high street in either flat or heeled versions.
“Not only will you look very childish wearing such shoes, but people will also need to learn that they aren’t the comfiest – blister plasters will come in handy.”
Pedal pushers
“The cropped knee-grazing trouser were all the rage in the 1990s and 2000s, but this time the model fash pack are all over them – with both Bella Hadid and Emily Ratajkowski wearing them out recently.
“The original IT girls, Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn and Brigitte Bardot helped make the trousers – also called Capri pants – look effortlessly cool and glam.
“Somehow this time round they don’t seem to be having that same effect.”
“Carpenters and other workers can slide a hammer through the top of the hammer loop, at which point the handle will fall into the underlying vertical pocket.”
The jean brand continues: “Carpenter jeans make their job a little easier by allowing carpenters to carry tools directly on their jeans without the need for a separate tool belt.
“If your job requires you to carry and use small handheld tools on a daily basis, there’s no better choice of trousers than carpenter jeans.”
And this isn’t the only thing that people are only just starting to realise the meaning of.
It was recently reported that Brits just discovered what a washing symbol on the label of their clothes means.
Many people would not be able to tell what the triangle means, as it can also come in four different forms.
These include an empty triangle, a triangle with CL inside and a cross through, a triangle with a cross through it, and a triangle with two diagonal lines through it.
A triangle with two diagonal lines inside of a triangle with CL inside and a cross through both mean that you should use non-chlorine bleach.
Having an empty triangle means you can bleach the item.
But a triangle with a cross through it will mean that the item must not be bleached.
