Shank Buttons

Discover over 3,200 Shank Buttons at Ribbonmoon, with one of the UK's largest online collections of buttons featuring a rear shank attachment. Unlike traditional sew-through buttons, shank buttons are sewn on using a hidden loop on the reverse, leaving the decorative face uninterrupted. This makes them ideal for coats, jackets, knitwear, tailoring, upholstery, bridal wear, children's clothing and decorative sewing projects.

Our collection includes over 3,200 products in an exceptional variety of sizes, colours, materials and designs. Choose from classic plain shank buttons, elegant metallic styles, novelty children's buttons, wooden buttons, floral designs, fashion buttons and decorative statement pieces from leading manufacturers and specialist suppliers.

Shank buttons feature a raised loop on the reverse rather than visible sewing holes through the face of the button. This allows the button to sit slightly proud of the fabric, making it particularly suitable for thicker fabrics, heavier garments and decorative button designs. The hidden attachment also gives a cleaner, more professional appearance on finished garments.

With over 3,200 products available, Ribbonmoon offers one of the UK's largest selections of shank buttons. Browse by size, colour, material or design to find the perfect finishing touch for coats, jackets, knitwear, upholstery, tailoring and craft projects.

Many buttons are available individually, while selected ranges are also offered in packs of 50 and 100, providing excellent value for manufacturers, schools, costume makers and larger sewing projects.

Whether you're searching for coat buttons, blazer buttons, decorative shank buttons, novelty buttons, replacement buttons or premium fashion buttons, Ribbonmoon offers a specialist collection designed for dressmakers, knitters, tailors and craft enthusiasts.
