I got a Rocketeer jacket from South Beach Leather a few years ago, and it has served me well. The collar is a little too big, but I've been dealing with that -otherwise, it's pretty accurate and well-made. Except:
The one thing that's driving me crazy are the buttons. They're basically metal hemispheres, sometimes difficult to get through their button holes, and I always seem to end up with a sore spot under my thumbnail from the sharp bottom edges. My thumb still hurts from Free Comic Book Day the day before yesterday.
Does anybody here have a good suggestion for replacement buttons that are the right size, look reasonably correct, are durable?
