More about CRZ 0002

CRZ 0002: black button with four holes in natural corozo, 11 sizes (14L (9 mm) – 48L (30 mm)). Most often chosen for jackets and outerwear. Code CRZ 0002 identifies exactly this design and this colour; use it when enquiring, when comparing against a sample or when looking for the right button for jackets and outerwear. As a guide: 14L (9 mm) of CRZ 0002 sits well on collars and cuffs on shirts, blouses and children's clothing; at the other end of the range, 48L (30 mm) is for heavy winter coats and statement buttons.

Material

The corozo used for this button is the dried kernel of the tagua nut – a plant material with a density and sheen close to ivory, yet entirely natural in origin. The corozo veining remains visible after dyeing, so each button carries a slight natural pattern – a sign of its plant origin. In a dark colour corozo looks deep and rich; its natural structure remains barely perceptible.

Colour and pairing

A black button looks neat and formal and is a safe choice for garments that need to combine easily. In the colour palette black is the darkest neutral; it absorbs light and gives the garment a cleaner silhouette.

Suitable fabrics: suiting wool, gabardine, velvet, black denim and dense jersey. Pairing: black buttons on a camel coat emphasise the line of the fastening and go with black shoes and belt. If you are sewing with black fabric, compare the button with the fabric in daylight: the blacks of different materials vary slightly in sheen.

Design and details

Without a rim the button has a simpler, modern silhouette and lies flat against the fabric. The solid, extra-thick body makes the button stand out from the side and gives it substance.

Choosing the size

For the front of a jacket or coat 36L–44L (22–28 mm) are most common, with smaller sizes for pockets and cuffs.

Sewing on and buttonholes

Four holes give a choice between cross and parallel stitching – a firmer hold in areas under strain. For thick fabrics, wind the thread several times under the button to form a shank – this protects the buttonhole and makes fastening easier. The buttonhole length is roughly the button diameter plus its thickness: 36L (22 mm) – approx. 25–27 mm; 40L (25 mm) – approx. 28–30 mm; 44L (28 mm) – approx. 31–33 mm.

Frequently asked questions

Can I combine several sizes of CRZ 0002 on one garment?
Yes – CRZ 0002 comes in 11 sizes, from 14L (9 mm) to 48L (30 mm), so different parts of the garment – front, sleeves, pockets – can have the same button.

What buttonhole does an extra-thick button need?
A buttonhole is calculated as the diameter plus the thickness of the button, so for extra-thick designs it is 1–2 mm longer than usual. Make a test on the fabric.

Which fabrics and colours does CRZ 0002 go with?
The CRZ 0002 button is black and suits almost any dark fabric – wool, gabardine, denim – as well as white shirts as a contrast. For a tone-on-tone look, place it on black or graphite fabric.
