@wynunlimited: keyhole is key with the sideways pressure of a jeans button. It also prevents the cf waist from warping to compensate a jeans button in a normal buttonhole. Bartacks speak for themselves, stitched rivets. Both are crucial for jean

dierhope :

I highly suggest doing the keyhole method zigzagging over a waxed twine/thread for extra strength

I struggled with bar tacks until I created some jigs. I also marked mine to help me get consistent length on the belt loops.
