Do any of you spec gilt, enamel, sterling, or solid gold shanked blazer buttons for the button fly of your trousers?

No. I only do zipper fly in pure gold. I prefer the softness when zipping.

It would be pretty big time and badass to have a seamstress open and then resew your fly every time that you had to step up and then back from a urinal.

You know, talking loudly and angrily on your cell while the seamstress sews your fly shut.
