How to attach jeans buttons 

Thanks for the great tips, I searched through a lot of videos trying to figure out how to remove and how to apply Jean buttons and your video was the only one that explained everything thoroughly even down to the best buttons to use.

Thank you. I sent my husband's pants off to the cleaners/alterations and they replaced the last jean button from a failed alteration button replacement. Now I know why they both failed and came off. The button they both used had no ridges. It basically looked like a tack that had a squared off tip with tiny scrapes on the sides. Thanks to you, I now know what to buy on Ebay and how to put it on myself!

Thanks Brian for putting this video together! Helped me out :)

Thanks brother great advice God bless your heart

It's a very informative video. THANK YOU for posting on here. I just purchased a brand new denim jacket on Ebay, washed/dried it and when it came out of the dryer, the bottom button had broken off! It wasn't a cheap jacket either. I love the look of the jacket, but now I'm worried that it's a piece of ......well, you know. By the way, it was Evil Denim from seaky tiki.

You are such a lifesaver! Thanks!

Thanks for the info Brian , what I am curious about is what type of sewing machine do you use ?

Question..If one of my jean buttons fall off can I reuse it or must I get a new one and in the end meaning change out all of the buttons on my jeans so they match? Thanks in advance. Love the video by the way!

Thanks Brian, really helpful for my dungarees!

Just a suggestion.Try using some Goop.It's a hard rubber adhesive,sold everywhere.It originally sold as Shoe Goo.Holds up well to washing.I haven't even done a tack button,yet,but think I may add some Goop,to the hole before puting on the tack button.

Great Video. It helps me !! Thank You.

Brian, thanks for posting. Good info (and good editing.) Keep up the good work!

Thank you for all the information. May I ask where you get the button and jean rivets. I am having a hard time finding good ones.

THANK YOU! I just tried putting on Dritz overall buttons and it was a complete fail. I ended up smashing the nail part because the button wouldn't go on. Makes me feel better that you also don't like them!

thanks for the video. my son has a couple of SNAP button jeans that were pressed way too hard at the cleaners. the jeans are fairly new and fit him. any ideas on how to remove the unusable pressed snaps?

Hi my top part of this keeps falling off, how do I fix it? Get a new set? Mine has a separation sharp part with a washer kind of thing and the top tack part...help

Best youtube video ever!

ok i watched you r vid , found it educating but i bought a pair of jeans that i like but i dont't like the buttons and was wondering if its possible to replace them how would i remove them?

Good work champ!

Okay so I have a pair of overalls that I want to replace rhw hardware on. So how would I go about to remove the tac button?

Im looking on how to take the buttons off. Thank you for the help on how to put em on:) Im needing to take a button off an old pair of jeans. Im about to cut them jeans up for throw away rags, but I always keep buttons. I have tried twisting the button off but that sucker is stuck tight. Any suggestions on how to get it off?

THANK YOU! A BIG HELP!

Very helpful! Thanks,

Thanks a lot ..... not rocket science but well worth a look as sometimes easy looking jobs quickly end in disaster ..... a few minutes learning avoids that ! Took your advice and hammered rivet (tack) into button NOT button onto rivet as some on here suggest. Don't need a painful thumb / finger ! :-) Thanks again.

Thank you Brian. Worked well..."It was a snap!" ( ouch! )

Im trying to put a button on back pocket on jeans (not easy) this does seem really easy. I would have like to seen a button put on a real pair of jean or a real spot, thats what Im having a lot of trouble with.

nice tutorial, thanks!

Hi. I tried this method only my shank button came with a fastener that looks like a straight nail (no ridgets or cone shaped end). When I try to hammer these in, the button does not stay on and the nail fastener starts coming through the front. Any ideas on what I can do about these?

Thank you.

Are Dyme no-sew buttons ok? Or what description should you look for on the box when you buy the buttons?

do you know of a liquid heat resistant adhesive to use on the recessed buttons that hold plastic gems or inlays. i removed plastic jewels from my wife's jeans and would like to fill buttons with colored adhesive instead.

Thanks Brian, worked just fine. I'd replace those curtains though. Ugh!

Thanks! Real helpful!

Very Helpful! Thanks so much!

Oh, very useful video :-) Thanks

I want to move bottons on the cuff of a denim jacket over a few inches. is ther a way to remove existing buttons? thanks

i agree with kevseb66 i have a denim jacket and i wast to replace the buttons but cannot get them off

So to take them out just twist them?? I'm trying to switch out buttons on a pair of shorts and need to take out the original buttons.

this is very helpful. i just bought my jean and the button came off the first time I wore. I will try to fix it.

champion. cheers!!!!

Thank You so much its really helpful !!

Would these types of buttons work for slacks? I keep popping my threaded buttons.. 🤦🏼‍♂️

Very helpful. Thank you

tried this to a T and still ended up with cracked and broken buttons. Should I make sure the button is tight and flush to the tack?

I was struggling to get my jean button installed and end up here. I'll let you guess which brand I bought.

Thank you good solid advice.

Brian's got a little sugar in his blood.

how do fix my button if the front part fell off? is it possible to fix?

Thanks alot.that's realy help.

Can you do a video of eating the button off the jeans

How do you un-instal them?? Or is there a way to do that

@Moddang30 haha same thing happened to me which is why I'm watching this vid. I was pissed that I wore it only once and the whole thing came right out.

Thank you

Thank you!!

Thanks a load

I am looking for donut buttons for vintage look. Anyone have an idea where to buy?

كيف نفك الزرار ابغا اغير مكانه الي يعرف يفيدني شكرا

Mine didnot come with button screws :(

THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUU!

This is really hard to understand without guide

Now THAT was amusing. :) Speech skill +2

the hammer sound was off-sync. jk :) great tutorial.

i like his moustache :)

Nice? You implied negatively for taking the advice from this video by selecting something stylish from Ebay but you also presumed to know the time of shipping of it (being over 5 months) and furthermore, imply that I was both stupid and naive to overpay by double for something cheap and most likely used. In that...how do you figure you were being nice?

A wiec tak to sie zakłada :-) takie proste a sie nie domyslilem ;-)

Thank you!! I fix mah pants!!!X3

how to pull it out

Its the Sheriff :O

Nice job! Gotta salvage a great old pr. of vintage A/E carpenter jeans and hoping I can add an inch or so to the waist w/o killing 'em....Gulp! Good tips and much appreciated...

As for your attempt in redirection of innocence and dramatics...I am neither concerned or moved. Your life is in your hands not mine.

no once they are installed it is forever and ever and ever and ever and ever

Thank you so much...I see that Dritz sells a tool for about twenty-eight dollars to attach their jeans buttons. Now I know that I don't need it, and I know NOT to buy their buttons, ahaha!

I mustache you a question, but ill shave it for later...

I Just Use A Zip Tie

cant see the buttons !!

Hey can I turn ribbit buttons into tech button. 🌝

Thank uuuuuuu sooooooo mustache i mean ...... much 0.0

What

ALOT of innuendo going on in this video.....

AIM THE HEAD??!?!?! WOAH CALM DOWN........

You say, "I am the only person i care about." No surprise there. That's a very pretentious remark. You say "I am not here to try to make idiots like you impressed..." . Yet your prior actions contradict your professed statement by posting multiple ostentatious declarations to myself and others. Yet, if that claim were true...we wouldn't be having this dispute, now would we? As you would never had felt the need to post inflated remarks in the first place to people that never addressed you.

why does he need to talk so much, just do the job, its not a lecture 2.21 before he actually does something practical and still he cant shut his mouth

There's not much you can do about the ears, but that shirt??? PLEAZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZE!

That is actually hilarious!

You have to drill off the back or use two pairs of pliers. Honestly it's not worth removing the buttons to save since they can't be used again unless you just like to collect them.

Thank you!!
