Logger/Suspender Buttons

Howdy:



I would like to add brass logger/suspender buttons to my pants but I have been unable to find information regarding palcement of them.



Anyone know the proper way of locating them?



Sincerely, Mark


Hi Mark,

If you mean the buttons that are sewn inside the waistband that the suspenders are buttoned onto, I have those placements.

on the back: two inches to the left and two inches to the right of the center waistband;

on the front: find the center between the side seam and the zipper, then sew a button one and a half inches on the left of this and a second button one and a half inches to the right of this. Do the same for the other front section.

This info was given to me by an alterations lady at Men's Warehouse.

Thank you very much Valerie for your answer---that's precisely the information I was looking for. I searched and searched but to no avail. I have printed it out and placed it into the sewing box.

These jeans have a waist band of 1 1/2 inches so I suspect that the buttons would be centered or 3/4 inch from the top.

I'll be using the 2-piece brass buttons with shanks that will have to be hammered together.

Thanks again Valerie.

Sincerely, Mark
