Troubleshooting
Button thread becomes loose over time
Reinforce the button attachment with a double-threaded needle or add a small 'shank' of thread underneath to allow for fabric thickness.
Button does not fit through existing buttonhole
Check if the buttonhole is at least 23mm; if smaller, you may need to enlarge the buttonhole slightly using a seam ripper and re-stitching the edges.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For installation, align the button with your existing buttonholes to ensure the 22.5mm diameter fits properly. Use a standard sewing needle and high-quality polyester thread for optimal longevity. When washing garments featuring these buttons, it is recommended to turn the item inside out or use a laundry bag to prevent the button surface from scratching against other clothes. Always store the buttons in the provided Hemline clip-top box when not in use to maintain their finish and prevent UV-related discoloration.
