Antonio, I really do love your channel and the companies you bring in (Though the sponsoring is getting pretty insane), but I love the life stories from successful entrepreneurs. You have the "Real Style" down, just add in some more "Real Men".
Noted - Thank you!
Real Men Real Style: Oh yeah! Loving this new format Antonio. Short and sweet, no talking straight to the camera, all demonstration, and still managed to give a few pro tips. Perfect execution of a how to video sir. Bravo Zulu, job well done.

me: **googling how to sew a button**
first result: "YOU MAY THINK SEWING ISNT MANLY BUT RAMBO DID IT"
straight men are a wonder
Soldiers have been sewing on buttons etc. for decades.
@@aletheiaverite So true. As a straight man, I believe that more men should learn to sew, it's a very useful skill and extremely rewarding to create something from scratch. Plus, it's really fun to make something for your girl.
@@aletheiaveriteIt has nothing to do with who you like to stick your dick inside it's just ignorance. Stop projecting
That's the exact comment I was gonna post lol
Sometimes (like today) both men and women need to learn/re-learn some of these useful and essential skills. Thank you.
It's weird how men fixing appliances, doing home repairs etc. Is considered manly self sufficiency, but repairing your clothes somehow became a non-manly skill
Ikr. Way back when, everyone knew how to sew, depending on their job.
If you were a sailor, you probably knew how to mend a sail if it had a tear. Men were and are tailors, they make clothes for men and women by sewing. It's a skill, and it's pretty important. It's not a 'girly' thing to sew and people should stop perpetuating that idea. It's just so stupid. 🤦
It is one of the first things the military teaches America's fighting force.
@@maladyjohnson3397 right. And how do these foolish men think they're James bond bespoke suits are made? Cause news flash! They're tailored Ave made by other MEN. So this idea is ridiculous
What’s weird is I’ve never heard this from anyone, but it seems to be a widely accepted modern take. But I can’t find anyone that will stand by “sewing isn’t manly”
@@rob_over_9000 i think it's how back in the day girls would take home ec at school and boys would take shop class, or how 1950's magazines would show a wife sewing her husband's socks while he reads the paper. That's 2 generations ago now so it's more like a vague cultural memory more than something people will actually advocate.
A mom here, this was the first video that popped up and I'm SO THANKFUL FOR IT. The instructions are so clear. I just sent this link to my son who recently graduated from NAVY Bootcamp. :)
I farted in my interview but, thank God, my buttons were on tight.
This is the kind of content that sets RMRS apart from the other gentlemen YT channels.
Appreciate the kind words! :)
Yes this is true ❤
This video was super helpful! I was struggling a little bit with getting a good knot on my thread, but I was really underestimating how much the roll helps! Just sewed on my first button using this video!
losing a button sapps your confidence and sewing is manly because Rambo did it. Are you okay?
I came to say the same thing - is our masculinity that fragile, lol?
And sewing isn't a "masculine skill set"?
Luke Thomas I mean there was another video with an upvoted commented about getting your wife to do it. So for some, yeah their masculinity is that fragile
I've lost a button while speaking. It's embarrassing and distracting.
Not that I'm ashamed of it, but you have to admit sewing clothes is stereotypically a female-oriented activity. You don't see a lot of women doing carpentry for the same reason.
I'm proud that I know how to sew, but I won't be shocked if me getting really good at it ends up raising some eyebrows.
Pro Tip: Make sure you start sewing the button on the correct side of the shirt. I definitely do not speak from experience on this.
"There's nothing worse than going into an interviewing and having a button fall off!!!". I can think of a few thousand things worse.
Yeah, imagine if it was the button holding your pants up.
Haha, that comment made my day.
No shit dude
@@DoomguyIsGrinningAtYou. no need to imagine
seriously i shouted "uh.. .genocide?" at that point. Heck, even spilling something on your shirt before an interview is worse.
instructions not clear, ended up sewing a button on my shoulder Rambo style.
lol
That's called user error lol
I appreciate that you showed me how to sew on a button, but really didn't need to be convinced it's manly first. A: I was already searching for how to do it, you don't need to convince me to watch what I specifically searched for B: If someone needs to sew something and thinking it's not manly is what's stopping them, they've got some serious issues. It's just a skill to create or repair things.
honestly i think this guy just wanted to talk about that rambo scene because it's a cool sewing reference.
The single greatest tutorial on UA-cam. Just did this exactly and it's perfect. Also works on your button on your pants. Favorite shorts for the summer, saved!
This is way more complicated that I imagined. Men were smart enough to let women do this for them for thousands of years.
Did we just learn how to sow a button? Gentlemen, the results are in! Antonio, you ARE the new father of the Real Gentleman Generation!
Yes you did! Thanks Gusher :)
Thank you! Followed along with your video as I sewed on a button. Now I can give a good shirt to the homeless 💕👍
This tutorial has been way more helpful than any of the several others I watched on UA-cam. It made fixing my pants (for the third time) easy and clear. You are amazing. Have a good day!
I've had to sew a few buttons, actually, but the tips about the "x" and the use of a second needle are great. Much appreciated, Antonio.
Taking care of our clothes is an art in itself. I'm looking forward for more videos like this.
Thanks again.
We'll have more coming :) Stay tuned.
What is the point of the second needle?
This video deserves a like just for the Rambo mention.
Honestly, this is one of the most helpful videos on UA-cam, I bet I've watched it at least 10 times now fixing different shirts, pants, gloves. Thanks for making this.
Thank you! Your video came in handy at the very last minute. I bought a $40 shirt from Men's Warehouse and literally every single button were coming loose 😐 I had to sew them all and this video thought me how to.
Not a business man with a loose button issue but I did use this tutorial to help me sew a button onto my daughters dress! Thanks! 😂☺️
Just followed this on a pair of dress shorts and man was it helpful! No sewing experience and now have now fixed it myself. Thanks heaps legends ✌🏼
So glad someone with military experience is helping others learn vital skills. This helped me fix my service uniform for my inspection tomorrow. 2 thumbs up!
Awesome tutorial! I am a woman, but find some of these tutorials better done and explained (with some better tricks) made by men. Thank you!
Also- A trick to not have to hold the spacer needle with thumb while sewing on button: secure it on the fabric under the button- just grab a little material on one side and then other making sure that the needle is showing above the fabric directly under the button.
pick me pick me
Can I just say I’m thankful for this video. I literally just replaced a button on my button up. Thank you!
as a female reading the comments, all I see is Rambo, I’m glad Sylvester should get all the attention he needs, plus I’m a little biased he has the same birthday as me🥺
I am thankful that my parents never decided our learning into man’s or women’s work. I have always send my own buttons on. In fact I have a small sewing kit that fits in my wallet and have used it several times.
Hey...I'm a single guy whose is stoked about this video. (It's the little things) Thanks!
Bruh if you need Rambo to reassure you about sewing you’ve bigger problems than a button
Thank you for starting fresh and doing EVERY step.
Great tip! I've sewed many buttons on clothing over my years but never knew how to do it like a pro. Ya learn something new every day!
And it's a good thing to learn it every day.
Thank you! This video is good for working women too who wear buttoned shirts, not just gentlemen ;)
Just sewed my first button by watching this video. My mother approved it 😁👍🏼
Thank you! I like that you actually explain how to tie the knot as well! Very helpful, Thumbs up from me :)
I haven't had to use this on a shirt yet but I found this video because my girlfriend had made me a bracelet before she moved off to college and it kept falling off so I had to improvise using this video as a guide so it would stay on. Thank you very much for this it helped a ton!
Completely underestimated what went into sewing a button on. Quite proud of how the one I did just turned out. Thanks!
Thank you arts and crafts man! This video saved my school project!
Handy, I've literally been putting off sewing a button and telling myself I'll "take it to get repaired"... it has been over 4 years. Thanks for the help guys!
FINALLY! This was the fifth damn vid I watched to find out how to tie the knot in the end of the thread! All the others either didn't show how at all, or showed tying a stupid overhand knot, which AIN'T GONNA HOLD!
Wow. Would have never expected a sewing tutorial from you, but it's definitely appreciated.
I'm 22 and I just sewed my first button, cheers for video
god this video is so specific and clear, thank you! also all the people here whining about the rambo reference... get a sense of humor. That was hilarious!
Thank you for the instructions. Did not need the pep talk regarding "manliness", though. Never even crossed my mind until you brought it up. Just wanted to fix a button.
Thank you for this! Helped me sew a button back onto my blazer. Very clear and easy to follow!
Thanks, a real life saver for fixing a pair of pants that I'd otherwise have to throw out.
Second time this guide has helped me out with my 2 sets of walking trousers. Thanks.
Used this video twice now to fix buttons on stuff, REALLY good, I very much enjoy repairing it. Rewarding :)
I finally received my rmrs pocket square today. It took a while but it had quit the journey all the way to Europe. I'm happy with it. It looks great.
Woohoo! Glad you enjoyed it.
this is the only video I could find that explains the shank! I knew it was there but not how to make it. thanks!
I've sewn on many buttons, and always wondered how to get that spacing, and the toothpick (safer than a 2nd needle) is a great idea. I kept trying to use something under the button like a fork for the spacing, but that's way too cumbersome! Thank you!
Let's quit being petty and pissy about this-it's a good skill for everyone to have and there are certain techniques that make it a lot easier and the results better.
I was cutting the threads off of my dress shirts getting ready for an inspection from the WO tomorrow and I cut off the button by an accident. You sir just saved me.
Technically, Rambo jumped off the side of cliff onto a tree while escaping gunfire from a helicopter. But his sewing skills are to be admired!
That makes your channel stands out among others.
You rock - thank you!
You saved my business trip, man! Thanks bro!!
Although I've been reattaching buttons fixing small clothing tears ETC for years, I 've never seen or was taught the double stitching technic. Thanks for the information it'll make a major difference. Also, I have a EM sewing kit that I've carried for years. Has a tube for the needles, two small spools that fit over the needle tube and the top is a thimble, very compact & handy.I throw it the drop bag & it's always there.
This is good advice for any person who wears shirts with buttons. Buttons handsewn in this manner will be more secure than buttons on a new shirt.
Exactly!
Thank you for this video. I learned how to properly sew buttons on my shirts!
These videos are great! Always useful advice to help with professional impressions. Love it.
Thanks for watching :)
Your videos are always useful. Thanks and keep it on.
Appreciate it guys! Thanks for being early!
RMRS came in for the assist! I had a date the other night and this video kept me looking fresh.
The knot tip is super useful where you roll it !!! I used to have to use someone else’s finger lol
On my 14th Birthday my mother sat me down and showed me how to sew, cook and do laundry much to my protest I might add. I explained that I didn't need to learn such things because my future wife would do these for me, she asked what if your wife is not around? To this day those lessons are the best gift I was ever given.
P.S. Helpful hint; I keep a suture kit and a small tube of Oralgel in my first aid kit and have had to use it several times when I was in the middle of nowhere and could not get to a doctor. The Oralgel makes for pain free sewing when a bandage just won't do.
Your mom's awesome!
This was a thousand times more helpful and informative than the Howcast video. Thanks so much!
Great video. One little note. There is a "button thread" that is used rather than ordinary sewing thread. There are also polyester threads that are colored and colorless.
I love how this just fastforwards through the important parts.
This vid was great, thank you so much for making it! I bought a pair of shorts last year and the button fell off after one wear. They've been sitting around for a year, buttonless, and I finally got around to finding a tutorial and taking care of this pesky item on my to-do list. The tip regarding the second needle and the shank was great, I don't think I'd ever heard that before. Thanks again!
Kelly Hanson what is the point of the second needle? Just sewed my button on but wondering the purpose of the second. Thanks!
@@jessicasutton2012 basically it makes it so there is extra space on the thread. Then the clothing that you are buttoning to can fit under the button nicely.
I barely had enough spare thread to loop it for the knots at the end using 32", so I'd recommend using 36". That I'm using much more thread than the 24" he recommends may be a sign that I'm no expert at doing this, but then, if you were an expert you wouldn't be watching this. Making the knot at the start isn't as easy as he makes it look. It may take a few tries if my experience is anything to go by. Before you pull the needle through each time leave it halfway through and check that it's where you want it. Sliding the needle back so you can try again is easy UNTIL you've pulled it all the way through. Meanwhile if you do use more thread this will mean that the loop you're pulling through with each stitch is considerably longer and more likely to catch around other buttons so more care will have to be taken. Oh and be careful that the needle doesn't unintentionally go through a bit of cloth that wasn't one you should be piercing, that will really mess it up if you don't spot it before you've pulled the needle through. To avoid making a mess try not to snag the ends of the cotton beyond the original knot as you continue. And, yes, holding that needle on top of the button is going to be easier with some buttons than with others. So long as you (use more thread and) don't try to do it as fast as he does before you're practiced this seems like a passable guide.
I don't remember when I've lost a sleeve button but I've had innumerable trouser buttons come loose over time. This is a much better way than the haphazard approach I've always used. Thanks!
Super!
the "ask the hotel" tip at the end. GOLDEN!
Was starting to sew a button back on to my pajamas and realized... I forgot how to do this properly... your video was recommended and I think the button is now sewn on better than it was before.
Thanks showing the up close detailed shots with a clear camera angle/view and centered in the frame. Too many DIY YT vids fail on some or all these points. Never thought about using the second needle before.
Thank you! This video was excellent, I followed all the instructions and the button looks great, and feels secure.
Been putting this off for too long. It's actually quite fun!!
just wanted to say thank you for this it was super clear and helpful!
Super informative. I learned about sewing AND male overcompensation.
Didn’t expect to find this here, but it was great to find it here!
Thank you Antonio, found this video right after one of my shirt buttons fell off. made my evening.
Glad it helped! :)
I'm a woman in my 40s and hardly ever have had to sew on a button, so didn't really know how to do it. This video was VERY helpful thanks!
Well that button's never coming loose again! Great video.
Rambo didn't get knocked out of a helicopter, he jumped off a cliff to get away from the shooter who was in a helicopter.
A yes men and only men need this
Saved the day, thanks buddy! Like the shank part, haven't done that before.
Thank you for this video! I was able to sew a button back on a vintage wool coat that had fallen off because of old thread, good as new now
Great 👍 now my trousers have a strong button back on them!
Thanks! One of the buttons on a favorite shirt came off. I've sewn them back on before, but only kind of slipshodded-ly. This one is super visible so I figured I'd better do it properly. Very helpful and clear video.
2024 coming in clutch, thank you brother!
Son of a tailor here. Impressive. My dad used the term elevator where you use the word shank. Most novices miss this. If so, the button is hard to fasten and can cause the button to indent on the material.
Thanks for letting us know!
I may be a woman but i needed this thank u!
I sewed on a button and now I feel like a god!
Awesome stuff. A little quick, but very good detail.
Another recommendation for this one, worked like a charm. Good video.
Now I am a real man and can do anything.
Easy to follow. Just fixed my husbands coat!!
Thanks, just did it. "The" button just popped off my shorts. I have a nice jacket that I want to move the button on, but also wanted a practice run first and got it. Even on my first try, it's nicer than the commercial job which tend to eschew shanks for starters.. I'm pleased.
very informative video, needed to resew a button that popped off and your video help immensely, keep up the good work. This is something I am surprised my parents didn't teach me as it just seems like something everyone should know(not a diss on my parents, they are amazing, this must have just slipped through the cracks)
This is an amazing video! It is really really helpful to have these kind of videos for those occasions when you need it and you don't know what to do. Thank you RMRS!
Zane - Thank you for the kind words!
Just used this guide to fix my shorts. Good stuff.
Funny how you need to reassure men that their manliness won't be lost by learning basic skills
