Unexpected and Brilliant Emergency Pants Button

Have you ever had a button pop off of your pants? It can be pretty embarrassing, and even more embarrassing if you’ve got no way to keep your pants up after it happens.

Instructables user dejapong, however, has a brilliant solution that should work for anyone in possession of a set of keys. The picture pretty much says it all.

Here’s what you do:

Make a small hole where the button used to be. Take your key and thread the key ring through the hole. The key fits through the button hole sticks out. You can fold it under a belt loop or run the key from the outside-in and just tuck it down. You will be the coolest person ever and soon the whole world will be wearing this.
