Used for fastening and decoration, leather buttons are very versatile. Leather buttons ideally compliment the garment or home decor and the right choice can finish off a look that is perfect. Leather buttons can be chosen to harmonize with a print, to match or contrast a solid colored fabric. The choice is on the interest of the buyers as they want the buttons to stand out or blend in with the fabric.

The texture of the leather should be considered, as the overall style one wish to create, can be enhanced by buttons. Leather buttons are especially suitable for corduroy. Small, delicate leather buttons must be selected for feminine garments; clean classic styles for tailored clothes and for children's clothes. Leather buttons come in a variety of colors and sizes for attaching to garment. The size is considered in relationship to the number of buttons on the garment and current fashion. Generally, a smaller size is appropriate when there are many leather buttons on the garment.
