✍️ How to Use – Simple Button Attachment
-
Select the right button size – Match the button diameter to the original buttonhole size. For heavy fabrics like leather or wool, choose 17‑25mm; for lightweight garments, 11‑15mm is sufficient.
-
Thread your needle – Use a strong thread (polyester or nylon) that matches the garment color. Double the thread for extra strength.
-
Position the button – Align it over the existing buttonhole or mark the desired position. For coats and jackets, place the button about 1‑2mm from the edge of the buttonhole band.
-
Sew through the holes – The button has two or four holes (standard). Insert the needle from the back of the fabric through one hole, then down through the opposite hole. Repeat several times.
-
Create a shank (optional) – For thick fabrics like leather, leave a small gap between the button and fabric by wrapping thread around the stitches before tightening. This prevents stress on the leather.
-
Secure and finish – Tie a knot on the back side, trim excess thread. For extra security, add a drop of clear fabric glue over the knot.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these buttons made of real leather or synthetic?
A: They are made of high‑quality black synthetic leather (PU). The material is durable, easy to clean, and has a consistent grain texture – ideal for garments and accessories.
Q: How do I choose the right button size for my coat?
A: Measure the diameter of your existing button (or the buttonhole). For a standard men’s coat, 23‑28mm is common; for a women’s jacket, 17‑23mm; for a cardigan, 15‑20mm. The back marking number is the approximate mm size.
Q: Can I wash a garment with these buttons in a machine?
A: We recommend hand washing or spot cleaning. Machine washing may damage the synthetic leather surface or cause the button to crack. If machine washing is necessary, place the garment in a mesh laundry bag and use a gentle cycle.
Q: Do these buttons come with a sewing thread or needle?
A: No, only the buttons are included. Use your own strong thread (polyester or nylon) and a needle suitable for the fabric thickness.
Q: What does the number on the back mean (e.g., 32)?
A: The number is the diameter in millimeters. For example, back mark 32 means the button is approximately 32mm wide. This helps you identify sizes without a ruler.
Q: Are the buttons two‑hole or four‑hole?
A: Most standard round buttons have four holes, but some sizes may have two. Please check the product images for the exact style. In general, larger buttons (≥20mm) tend to have four holes for secure attachment.
Q: Can I use these buttons on a leather jacket that already has holes?
A: Yes. If the original button size matches, simply sew through the existing holes. If the new button is larger, you may need to create new buttonholes or use a thread shank to avoid pulling on the leather.
