Sizing & Matching (mm)
Measure the diameter across the widest point in millimetres (mm) and match that to the size options on the product page.
| Common Use | Approx. mm | Approx. lignes (L) |
|---|---|---|
| Shirt cuffs / collars | 10–12 mm | 16–19 L |
| Blouses / dresses | 12–15 mm | 19–24 L |
| Cardigans / knits | 15–20 mm | 24–32 L |
| Blazers (sleeve) | 12–15 mm | 19–24 L |
| Blazers (front) | 18–23 mm | 28–36 L |
| Coats / outerwear | 20–30 mm | 32–48 L |
Rule of thumb: 1 ligne ≈ 0.635 mm (use product size options for exact matches).
How to Sew on a Replacement Button (and Make It Last)
- Thread a needle (double the thread) and knot the tail.
- Anchor from the wrong side; make a few small tacks where the button sits.
- For 4-hole: sew in a criss-cross or parallel pattern 6–8 passes per pair.
- For shank: create a thread shank if needed; wrap 3–5 times to stabilize.
- Knot on the wrong side and secure with a tiny dab of clear fabric glue (optional).
