Material

Corozo combines hardness, the ability to be finely turned and excellent dye uptake, which is why it is used for buttons on quality shirts, suits and coats. The corozo pattern is fine and unique – the button looks alive rather than artificially uniform. In a dark shade the corozo pattern is more discreet and the button looks dense and calm.

Colour and pairing

Brown buttons are the traditional choice for British-style menswear – jackets, waistcoats and wool coats. Brown is a deep warm tone from the earth palette – a classic colour for autumn and winter collections.

On beige, cream, olive and blue fabrics a brown button looks warm and finished. On a cardigan in cream or olive a brown button emphasises the fastening and adds cosiness. Tip: a brown button softens navy and grey clothing and is a more casual alternative to black.

Design and details

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

Choosing the size

On shirts, 18L (11.5 mm) is the standard for the placket, 14L–16L (9–10 mm) for button-down collars and cuffs, and 20L (12.5 mm) for heavier flannel and denim shirts. For trousers and skirts, 24L–28L (15–18 mm) is usually used on the waistband and 20L–24L (12.5–15 mm) on the pockets.

Sewing on and buttonholes

Four holes give a choice between cross and parallel stitching – a firmer hold in areas under strain. Guide to buttonhole length (diameter plus button thickness): 14L (9 mm) – approx. 11–12 mm; 24L (15 mm) – approx. 17–18 mm; 28L (18 mm) – approx. 20–21 mm. Make a test on the same fabric.
