People are always asking here what buttons they should get on their blazer. Why don't we have a poll to see what is most popular. I've listed the most popular choices. If there is anything else that you prefer let it be known.

+1 my vote to brass. No point calling it a blazer otherwise, imo.

Interesting, is this based on any tradition or just your take on it?

I like enamel. I swapped out my brass buttons for enameled fleurs-de-lys. But then, I'm a Saints fan...

Just my take on it I guess. To me it just looks most traditional/stylish that way

I also voted "other" since I prefer enamel. I have four enamel-buttoned blazers, one smoked MOP and one brass.
