The answer is universal - YES! Oh but hold the phone - I saw 4 people in the past two days who violated this simple yet hard-to-master technique. The fucking loops are there for a reason - for a belt! Go ahead and wear a shoelace around your waist. Use a rope. Use SOMETHING! Don't walk around with your shirt tucked in and no belt on - you look like a douche. Here's a very old forum that discussed this.
Again, I forgot to snap photos of these boobs and they terribly low fashion IQ's but I will add a few photos from a Google search:

| Belt-free khaki - doofus! |

| I feel like this is silly looking too. |
It doesn't matter if your pants are tight? - who cares, wear a belt.
If you're pants are baggy? - definitely wear a belt.
Khaki pants with a polo tucked in? - belt it.
Denim with a tucked in t-shirt? - pull the shirt out and add a belt.
This is something that is so basic, so rudimentary, that it shouldn't even have to be addressed. If it has loops, they're to be utilized.
Plain and simple - but not so simple for some guys to comprehend. Women, for you, this article does not apply - or does it?

Wow Bro, you are really getting fired up on the fashion stuff lately. I hadn't given this topic much thought quite frankly because I pretty much always wear a belt because I have a bit of a gut and I require one not to be obscene.
But when I was a super skinny rock n roller back in the day I always wore a sleeveless white T and Levi's Boot Cut (now 517's) sans belt. Maybe a Flannel over-shirt, NOT tucked...Granted this was a non working casual everyday occasion but I thought it looked fine. Of course I would never have worn a dress shirt (IE: collar w/buttons) with slacks and no belt. I never wore polo's but if I did they require a belt IMO...
Good stuff, love the fashion posts for the brothers...good stuff. You have to take into account your representing he CITY and E Coast too, Midwest fashion is an oxy-moron...it doesn't really exist!
You see bozos in khaki slacks w/dress shirts and no belts all the time in OFFICE's out here and NOT just on Friday's...ridiculous!
