well button fly is still there and specially in mens jeans
not sure about ladies
and zip fly is sure easy to wear and easy to open
but imagine if u r male and not wearing underwar??

Back then I'm all for fly's, but like you've said it is not that 'in' anymore. So I guess whatever is available for me would do, as long as it looks and feels good for me!;) Pants that are soft and comfortable to wear are the one's I look at, that's the important thing.

I would choose zip on because it is definitely easier to undress than a button fly.

I definitely prefer a zipper too. It is a lot more convenient when you're trying to use the bathroom than having to unbutton all the way down, lol. Also, it's much quicker to put them back on then too. If I have buttons instead, then I feel like it takes me forever to stand there and button all the way up again, lol.

I like pants with an elastic waistband & no zipper, button, snap, etc. I gain & lose weight like there's no tomorrow & I don't want to buy several different sizes of pants just so I can find a pair that fits!

Button fly is out of fashion. It has been a long time for people of both genders to use zip on. Just like what you say in the discussion, it is much more convenient to use zip as it is easy to wear and remove.

If it's Levi's brand pair of jeans, I'd love the button fly because it's very easy to button up and even more so to undo. It's very comfortable to wear as well but when in a hurry to use the bathroom, button fly is the way to go. Now a coat, I'd rather have a zipper for it's much warmer because nothing can get through a zipper.

Do folk use buttons on pants nowadays? I have to ask for I dont really see those.
I recalled if a someone's zipper was down, you would say to them your "fly is open" and they would quickly get the gesture and close it.
