Zip, then button
Tuck in undershirt, button, buckle belt. Do things for a couple hours. Wife tells me my pants are unzipped again
Button -> Zipper
button first, both closing and opening.
Button first. Reduces stress on the zipper. Nobody wants premature zipper failure.
Also just makes the zipper easier to operate in general.
I leave them both open for ventilation.
I usually button the button and immediately forget to zip the fly. Hours later after I've been in public all day I'll notice that the fly is unzipped and try to zip it without anyone noticing.
So you want us to show you our arseholes while you're showing everybody your peehole? You are a master of business.
Button first, zipper if I can be bothered ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Hey your Kuhstall steht open
Was someone watching the first season of Babylon 5?
Button then zip
That's a good question for which I don't know the answer, even though I do it quite often. 🤯
If they are loose enough sometimes I do the zipper first, otherwise I do the button first to make the zipping easier.
Vinage 501s so I button my button first then button my zipper.
