leather jerkin buttons
Hello new to this site and I'm hoping someone can help. I have what I believe is a WW2 British Army leather jerkin. I would like to get the correct buttons for it, but do not know: A) What I am looking for ? & B) Where to look for them ? Can anyone help. Thanks.

G’day HB
What you’re looking for is a large brown plastic button with a lip all the way around and 4 holes in the centre to attach it to the jerkin. Sorry mine packed away somewhere so I can’t take a photo for you but look here on google for some great pictures. https://www.google.com.au/search?q=b...w=1920&bih=969 As I don’t live in the UK I’ve no idea who might stock them but I would keep an eye open at military fairs and rallies or maybe a member might have a few spare. Good Luck John |

Thanks, for the swift reply dak580. I don't live in the UK either, but in NYC - I'm hoping someone here might advise me where to purchase some via mail. Can they ?
