Material

The raw material is corozo: tagua palm fruits are gathered once they have fallen from the tree, and the kernels are dried before they are sliced and turned into buttons. The material is biodegradable, and its natural pattern makes every button unique. A light shade leaves the natural structure of the kernel visible – the button looks soft and warm.

Colour and pairing

Tan buttons add warmth to beige, olive and blue garments and are a popular choice for flannel shirts and summer jackets. Tan is a warm earthy tone, close to the colour of natural leather, camel wool and caramel.

On navy, olive and beige garments a tan button adds warmth without feeling heavy. CRZ 0010 on an olive field jacket with beige trousers creates a harmonious look within the earth palette. Tip: pair a tan button with brown leather details – a belt, shoes or leather elbow patches – for a finished look.

Design and details

The rim around the face makes the button fuller and protects the stitching from wear.

Choosing the size

For shirts and polos, 16L (10 mm) and 18L (11.5 mm) are most common on the front placket, with 14L (9 mm) for the collar and cuffs. For jackets and coats choose 36L–40L (22–25 mm) for the front; for heavy coats and double-breasted styles, 44L–48L (28–30 mm).

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. Guide to buttonhole length (diameter plus button thickness): 14L (9 mm) – approx. 11–12 mm; 32L (20 mm) – approx. 22–23 mm; 44L (28 mm) – approx. 30–31 mm. Make a test on the same fabric.
