i just have the same problem when I remove the failed buttons they leave holes but not as big as shown in the video, do I still need to repair the holes first and then punch those new buttons or I can just put new buttons without repairing holes? (Btw the holes are a lot smaller than the screws bottom.) and I did put new buttons without repairing and they look fine, and I don’t see any fabric sticking out of the buttons, is that fine? Or it will move around and ending up with buttons fell off?
Hello Dan, thanks for leaving the comment. I use the darning technique almost all the time when a jean button pulls out from the back of the fabric. I do not punch a hole through the newly darned area when putting the new button on. I place the bottom nail side of the new button under the waistband and pound the top half on through the material. I found when I punched a hole for the nail that the material frays too easily and the new button pulls through. The only time I would not use the darning is when the jean button itself just broke off. But if it has pulled through the material I would recommend doing a bit of darning. I hope this is helpful.
Hello I do have a video just for that but it is a part of my paid content. I show how to remove and replace in under an hour. The module it is included in is jacksonsewingacademy.com/zipper-replacements-module-2/. Once purchased the video set is yours 24/7 lifetime.
Keep checking here and on our Facebook page for full,length video training being offered for sampling. The jacket zipper video is on the list to show. Viewing is $4.99 per video on the Facebook platform. Dates and videos will be announced weekly.
Hello Jolene, thank you for the question. Once the hole is repaired a standard button can be sewn on to replace the jean button. I would recommend sewing the button on with a raised shank.
@@JuliaTaylorSoprano Hello I apologize for not responding sooner. I believe you can use hand stitching to darn the hole. Once darned you can attach a new button.
Jean buttons can be purchased at some fabric stores in packages of 5-10. I order mine online at Wawak.com/ca I am in Canada so I use their Canadian site.
I've bought them off Ebay. They're called jean button pins. A uniform company supplied uniforms at work. I was a hassle getting them to replace a missing button on the pants. I bought a pack for of these and do the repair myself. Easy and very strong and permanent.
Wow, proper little tutorial. Tailors/seamstresses/Alteration specialists are probably underappreciated trades. You banged that button confidently!!
Thank you, Joe! Please subscribe to my channel.
Nice explantion
Thanks for video I was beginning to think that these buttons and method didn’t exist after watching 6 other videos. Thanks again.
Thanks Charlie for the feedback!
This video helped a lot.
You make it look so simple
Everything is easy once you know how. :)

What happens if the button that you buy doesn't have the screw thing on the back?
Hello Jolene, thank you for the question. Once the hole is repaired a standard button can be sewn on to replace the jean button. I would recommend sewing the button on with a raised shank.
Is is possible to do something like this by hand?
I live in a small apartment and can’t afford a sewing machine yet
@@JuliaTaylorSoprano Hello I apologize for not responding sooner. I believe you can use hand stitching to darn the hole. Once darned you can attach a new button.
Did you just do a straight stitch or zig zag?
Hello Angela, I use a very small straight stitch for this mending technique.
@@JacksonSewingAcademy Thank you
