How to Choose Buttons

In our button lineup, we offer resin buttons made in Japan, as well as plastic, metal, shell, real buffalo horn, nut, wood, leather, and more. You can also see original buttons with dyeing in specified colors and covered buttons wrapped in textile.

Metal buttons can be selected to match the design based on their metal or metal-like surface finish and shape. Shell buttons can be chosen based on their natural luster and differences in color tone, and real buffalo horn buttons can be selected based on the color variations and patterns that differ from piece to piece. In customer reviews, people mention the expression of the material, its sheen, the design, and how easy it is to use with garments.

This introduction was written by AI based on product data, reviews and the ApparelX Wiki.

inakanofukuyaOct 6, 2020
Just the right button with a light and natural feel
I'd like to use wood buttons for fall/winter items, but I've been avoiding them because they're a little expensive and the larger the size, the heavier they look, but these buttons meet both of those requirements and are just right.

Anyway, cute
I can't find any other reasonably priced buffalo round buttons, so I think these are really cute. Used for women's coats and jackets. I have purchased it many times, and the individual differences in the color of each button are not that big, so even if I keep buying them and repeat them, the quality is comparable.

Frequently asked questions

QWhite buttons look yellow. Depending on the size, buttons with the same color number may appear to be different colors.
For polyester materials and similar, if the item is white or a light color, the button color may discolor due to the production lot or aging.
If you absolutely need the colors to match, there are methods such as using a dyeable type and dyeing it to match the textile color.
However, even after dyeing, the color may still discolor over time, such as after 5 to 10 years.
QCan button samples be arranged?
We are sorry, but we cannot provide button samples free of charge. Orders can be placed starting from a minimum of 1 piece, so please place your order from each product page.
QHow long does delivery take if the buttons are dyed?
It varies depending on the quantity and number of colors, but if it is around 1 to 3 colors, shipment is possible in about one week.
QIs it possible to laser engrave buttons (add a logo)?
It may be possible depending on the type of button. If you would like a quotation, please contact us from the Support Page with the following details for your logo engraving request:
・button product number
・size
・color
・quantity
・logo data (please send Illustrator, PDF, or other data that shows the logo design)
We will contact you with details such as whether it is possible and a quotation.

*Laser engraving cannot be done on nylon, acrylic, or glass materials. Thank you for your understanding.
QIs dyeing possible even for shell buttons that are not coated?
Yes, it is possible. However, an additional coating fee and coating lead time will apply. For details, please contact us from the Support page.
