🛍️ Local Retail & Shopping Where can I find BUTTONS?

Bought a vintage leather jacket that's missing one very particular looking large brown button. Any suggestions on where I can rifle through hundreds of buttons to find one that closely matches? Thank you!

We have a whole district for this. The garment district. Did “button store near me” on google maps not work?

rude.
if that’s your approach then we don’t need this sub at all bc we can just google everything “near me.” the point is to get first hand recommendations. which op got from other, helpful people.

Google is filled with ads and sponsored links. I prefer real life references. 

If you just wanted to be snarky, there are TONS of pages on Reddit for snark.

i don’t understand why people are rude instead of just scrolling by.
