They are perfectly suited for blazers, formal wear, business attire, military uniforms, school uniforms, organizational attire, and high-end fashion collections. So, how can you create the personalized metal blazer buttons you envision? We provide some guidance on this below.
Metal blazer buttons typically come in the form of shank buttons, two-hole buttons, or four-hole buttons. Snap buttons or rivet-style (jeans-button) fasteners are also possible, though less common.
Metal shank buttons
Metal shank buttons feature a small loop (shank) on the back, which is used to attach the button to the garment. This is the most common style of metal blazer button; it offers a premium appearance, with a smooth, unobstructed front surface. This design is ideal for intricate patterns or decorative motifs, allowing logos, crests, or embossed designs to be displayed in their entirety.
Furthermore, because the back of a shank button does not sit flush against the fabric, it can accommodate thicker materials and reduce tight compression between the button and the garment. Additionally, since no stitching is visible on the front, the button provides a clean, polished look that enhances the overall aesthetic and high-end feel of a blazer. Consequently, shank buttons are an excellent choice for formal blazers, nautical-style jackets, luxury outerwear, institutional or school uniforms, and designer fashion.
Two-hole metal blazer buttons
Two-hole metal blazer buttons feature two holes on the front. Thread is passed through these holes to secure the button directly to the garment. This design is simple, classic in appearance, easy to sew on, and convenient to replace. Consequently, two-hole metal buttons are well-suited for casual blazers, lightweight jackets, and certain types of uniforms.
Four-hole metal blazer buttons
Four-hole metal buttons feature four holes on their surface, arranged in a symmetrical square or rectangular pattern. This design allows for flexible sewing methods: you can sew them in parallel or cross-stitch them into a cross pattern. Consequently, four-hole metal buttons are frequently used on casual suits, fashionable tailored jackets, and workwear-style garments.
Metal snap buttons and metal rivet buttons (jeans buttons)
A typical metal snap button consists of two parts: one part comprises the cap and the socket, while the other consists of the stud and the post (rivet). When pressed together, the socket locks onto the stud, creating a secure connection that allows for repeated opening and closing. These are commonly used on casual blazers, jackets, trench coats, and workwear, as well as serving as detachable decorative fasteners.
Metal rivet buttons (often called “jeans buttons”) consist of a cap and a rivet; they are frequently used on denim jeans, denim apparel, jackets, and workwear.
While less common as standard blazer buttons, metal snap buttons and rivet buttons are sometimes employed as decorative elements on casual blazers and jackets, placed on cuffs, shoulders, or pockets to enhance visual appeal and design flair.

We offer 35 different electroplating colors for custom metal blazer buttons. Popular choices include gold, silver, black, gunmetal, and bronze. Beyond electroplating, we provide various finishing techniques—such as spray painting, baked enamel, spot coloring, antiquing, and brushing—to achieve diverse metallic lusters and surface textures. These buttons are ideal for business suits, casual blazers, nautical-style jackets, uniforms, and high-end bespoke garments.
Gold Blazer Buttons
Gold is a classic choice for metal blazer buttons, available in shades such as bright gold, light gold, rose gold, and antique gold. When combined with techniques like engraving or 3D relief, they create a luxurious, elegant, and sophisticated visual impact. Consequently, these gold metal blazer buttons are an ideal choice for premium suits, Women’s Fashion blazer, collegiate-style jackets, and nautical-themed blazers.
Silver Blazer Buttons
Silver metal buttons offer a clean, modern, and sharp aesthetic. Options include bright silver, matte silver, brushed silver, and antique silver. Silver metal blazer buttons pair harmoniously with black, gray, or navy blue fabrics, making them well-suited for business wear and contemporary-style blazers.
Vintage Tones (e.g., Bronze)
Buttons in vintage tones (such as bronze or antique brass) exude a warm, nostalgic metallic quality. They are perfect for vintage-inspired suits featuring crests or emblems, traditional uniforms, country-style jackets, and collegiate-style blazers.
Black/Gunmetal Blazer Buttons
Black and gunmetal buttons offer an understated, modern, and composed look. They are well-suited for business suits, fashionable jackets, uniforms, and garments in darker color palettes.
The most common and widely used shape for custom metal blazer buttons is circular. This classic design offers a surface that can be customized with brand logos, emblems, intricate patterns, or text. It is an ideal choice for business suits, collegiate-style jackets, uniforms, and high-end bespoke apparel.
In addition, we offer custom shapes such as squares, shields, hearts, and diamonds, as well as designs featuring animals, crowns, floral motifs, or specific brand logos. Selecting the right custom shape can enhance the distinctiveness and appeal of your branded clothing.
When customizing metal blazer buttons, the size is just as important as the construction, style, color, and shape. The appropriate size is determined by factors such as the button’s placement on the garment, the type of clothing, and specific brand design requirements.
Button sizes are typically expressed by their diameter, measured in either millimeters (mm) or “Lignes” (L)—a standard unit of measurement in the button industry. Below are some common button sizes and recommendations.
Metal blazer buttons are most frequently used on the front placket. Since these buttons serve both a functional purpose—fastening the garment—and a prominent decorative role, larger sizes are generally chosen to highlight the brand’s aesthetic or showcase an emblem/crest. A typical size range for these is 20–30 mm.
Blazer cuff buttons are usually smaller, typically 12–20 mm, to maintain a refined look and overall balance, while ensuring they do not interfere with daily wear or movement.
For decorative buttons placed on pockets, shoulders, or other specialized design areas, sizes ranging from 15–28 mm may be selected depending on the garment’s construction. These often feature techniques such as relief (embossed) textures or dual-tone finishes to enhance the brand’s design identity and visual appeal.
