This version 2.0 kit contains easier-to-attach buttons with an internal guide inside the back of the button, and spiked nails so that each and every button should be a success!
Packing high-quality hardware and custom-made tools into an awesome kit, Kylie and the Machine has made it as easy as possible for you to finish off your pair of jeans. No longer will you need to snip rivet nails down to the right length and fiddle around matching anvils and setters to nails and caps — the tools in this kit fit perfectly to the hardware so you practically only have to hammer the rivets together!
The beautiful metal finish of the hardware also makes for a professional-looking pair of jeans that you will be confident strutting around town in when you're done!

What size zipper should I choose?
If you have a pattern in mind, definitely check the specific details and notions list within that pattern. As a rough guide:
- 15 cm / 6" is good for low-mid rise jeans and some smaller sizes of high waisted jeans.
- 19 cm / 7.5" for high waisted jeans in most sizes.
