Uphold the highest standards of military and professional bearing with this complete Style 25 12-button set of Service Uniform Dress Shirt Buttons. Meticulously engineered for personnel in the Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines, and professional airline pilots, these buttons ensure a crisp, regulation-ready appearance that reflects personal pride and esprit de corps. Each button is manufactured to the precise 12mm (19 Ligne) diameter with a slim 4-ligne (0.100-inch) thickness, providing a sharp, low-profile fit on plackets, collars, and cuffs without adding unnecessary bulk.

This versatile button is a popular replacement for a wide range of service garments, including the Army's AG-415 Class A-B Green Army service dress shirt. Its crisp, pearl-white appearance is also a near-perfect match for the 19-Ligne buttons used on the U.S. Navy and Coast Guard's Summer White Service Uniform shirts. Furthermore, the elegant finish is highly suitable for the light blue shirts of the Air Force Service Dress Uniform and the formal white shirts required for the Marine Corps Blue Dress "A" uniform and the Class A dress uniforms of law enforcement and first responders.

Crafted from a heavy-duty pearlescent-polyester composition, these buttons are designated as Type 1, Class 2 (formerly Class K) under Federal Specification A-A-59994, providing military-grade quality. This robust thermosetting material delivers an exceptional average compressive strength of over 500 pounds and is highly resistant to heat, water, and chemicals, ensuring it will not crack, chip, or fade through rigorous daily wear and frequent laundering. While offering the classic, lustrous aesthetic of traditional mother-of-pearl, these synthetic buttons provide far superior durability and low-maintenance care. Unlike natural shell, which is prone to cracking, this advanced polyester is machine washable and dry-clean safe, retaining its color and integrity through regular cleaning cycles.

Finally, every set is proudly made in the USA to meet stringent government supply chain requirements, such as the Berry Amendment, which ensures domestic sourcing for the Department of Defense. This 12-button set provides a full replacement for one long-sleeve dress shirt, with essential spares for immediate repairs, ensuring your uniform remains flawless and inspection-ready at all times. With consistent molding, a colorfast finish, and long-term strength, these buttons provide a fastening system that looks intentional, fits securely, and stands up to the demands of service.

The Foundation of a Flawless Uniform

A Symbol of Professionalism and Discipline

In the armed forces and professional aviation, a uniform is more than just clothing; it is a symbol of commitment, discipline, and collective identity. Maintaining its impeccable appearance is a fundamental responsibility. This Style 25 12-button set is designed to ensure that standard of excellence for the dress shirts of the Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines, and professional airline pilots. Adherence to uniform regulations, such as the Army's AR 670-1 or the Navy's NAVPERS 15665, is a measure of professionalism, and attention to detail is paramount. Even a single missing or damaged button can compromise the integrity of the uniform. These buttons provide a clean, consistent, and regulation-compliant finish, ensuring that whether you are in a daily service setting, a formal inspection, or a public ceremony, your appearance reflects the highest standards of your respective branch.  

Precision Sized for Regulation Compliance

The 19-Ligne Standard for Dress Shirts

Military uniforms adhere to a strict and traditional sizing system for buttons, measured in "Lignes," where 40L equals one inch. Each button is precisely manufactured to the 19-Ligne (12mm) diameter with a slim 4-ligne (0.100-inch) thickness, the established size for military dress shirt applications. This specific sizing is critical for proper wear on shirt plackets, cuffs, and collars, ensuring a sturdy yet unobtrusive fit that sits flat against the fabric and preserves the sharp, clean lines of a pressed uniform shirt. The dimensions are consistent with the requirements for garments like the Navy's Summer White Service Uniform shirt, which uses a nearly identical 19-Ligne button.

Engineered for Uncompromising Durability

Thermosetting Polyester for Lasting Performance

Engineered to meet the rigorous demands of military service, these buttons are manufactured in accordance with Federal Specification A-A-59994 (formerly V-B-871F).They are classified as Type 1, Class 2 (formerly Class K), denoting a pearlescent-polyester composition. The material is a thermosetting polymer, meaning it undergoes an irreversible chemical reaction during curing that creates powerful cross-links. This gives it exceptional dimensional stability and ensures it will not melt or deform when exposed to high-temperature laundering or pressing. Tested to withstand an average compressive strength of over 500 pounds, these buttons are exceptionally resistant to cracking, chipping, heat, and water, providing long-term performance under the most demanding conditions.

Classic Elegance Meets Modern Performance

The Look of Mother-of-Pearl, The Strength of Polyester

These buttons deliver the elegant and lustrous appearance of classic mother-of-pearl, a material long prized for its iridescence, but without its inherent weaknesses. Genuine mother-of-pearl, harvested from mollusk shells, is notoriously fragile and prone to cracking or shattering under the mechanical stress of military use and frequent laundering. This pearlescent-polyester is an advanced synthetic, specifically engineered in the mid-20th century to provide a durable, cost-effective, and uniform alternative. It perfectly mimics the sophisticated pearl-white sheen while offering superior resilience. The material is machine washable, dry-clean safe, and resistant to fading and scratches, ensuring a consistently sharp and professional look with minimal, low-maintenance care throughout the life of the garment.

The Mark of American-Made Reliability

Domestic Sourcing and Mission Readiness

Manufactured in the United States under strict quality controls, these buttons meet the high standards required for all U.S. military and professional service attire. Domestic production is a critical component of the military supply chain, mandated by federal laws like the Berry Amendment, which ensures that the Department of Defense sources essential goods like textiles and uniform components from American manufacturers. This practice, managed by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), provides a secure and reliable supply chain independent of foreign sources. This 12-button set provides a full complement for a standard long-sleeve dress shirt, including buttons for the front placket, cuffs, and collar, with spares included for the inevitable field repairs. This ensures that a service member can confidently and quickly maintain a regulation-compliant uniform at all times.
