Great photographs, I can smell the brine. Personally, of course, I prefer my buttons to be pre-digested by giant Japanese (indigo) Bluefin Tuna, but hey…

[sabergirl]

Beautiful.

[deadendpro]

those buttons look great. i can only imagine how good they feel!

I’m sure that might be an unpopular opinion right now and would fit into the dedicated thread but:
Don’t most people around here look down at pre-distressed stuff and “preach” the natural evolution of your gear, yet the artificial aging (and rusting) is considered cool? Isn’t that hypocrite in a way?

My point is only valid if those buttons are supposed to be used for new jeans though.
And yeah, with natural wear of jeans you wouldn’t probably achieve such an aging of your buttons.

Edit: Don't wanna be the defeatist just bringing up some discussion

[Giles]

I got exactly the same wear on my duck vest after a weeks salt water fishing.

@beautiful_FrEaK, good point.

[Megatron1505]

It's a differentiator, some people will love it and others will not. Personally I think it's creative and adds an element of something special.

[Giles]

I'm with Mega…...........

I wouldn't label it as pre distressing either, to me the process of pre distressing jeans is done without thought other than to make them appear worn, this is done as a concept to achieve something which has not been done before. Calling it pre distressing is like comparing silver selvedge to a cocktail dress, as in it fails to recognise the meaning of the feature.
