Hi, this is Andrew on behalf of Expert Village.com and in this next clip I am going to be showing you how to determine the right button for use in sewing onto a men's long jacket of a polyester material with a silk lining on the inside.

Now there are different types of buttons and typically what would determine the style and size and the structure of the button would be based off of what you want. You can have various buttons of various sizes this being a large button and one that is sewn through it which tends to keep it tight to the surface. There are smaller versions of this and typically if a button came off of the jacket you were just trying to fix, you would look to see what type of buttons are already on the jacket. You would not want to stray too far from what the normal jacket consists of so that it does not look out of place. You also want to keep in mind that they should have the same or similar color scheme and similar color shading. In this case, this jacket came as most do with buttons on the inside as replacements that you can use which I have just removed from this interior lining.

Typically they are the same type of button, same shading with a little bit of variation should you chose to switch up your style at all. In this particular case it is a small thread through button with four holes in it and this allows you to secure the button tightly to the fabric and slips nicely into one of the eyelet sleeves that the button fits into. So that is what I would use with this jacket. Some of other options would be for other materials. You've got fasteners, which would be go for the interior pockets to keep them fastened and because it is a silk interior these actually work quite nicely because they do not require too much thread to keep them fastened when it comes to loose materials like blouses, or silkier, other materials that I find threading.

Another option would be clasps but I would not use that in this case because the movement of the fabric tends to undo clasps very easily. It works better on as a most people are familiar with bra straps and other garments that are already tightly spanned against the body so that it keeps the clasp in place. For this one, I am going to use the button that came with the jacket that matches the other buttons with it.
