About Us.

Buttonology, Inc. was founded in 2005 by Richard Levy and Teddy Haft with a simple goal in mind - to be a wholesale supplier of buttons, buckles and accessories. Since that time, the company has transformed from a local shop in the heart of New York City’s Garment Center, to a staple in the landscape of garment production - Richard and Teddy have even brought on their sons, Jonah and Jesse to continue the family legacy.

Buttonology, Inc. is a supplier for garment manufactures around the world, fabric stores all over the country, and some of the biggest and most innovative names in Fashion Design. Whether you're looking for something simple and sporty for a golf shirt, or ornate and elegant for ball gown, look no further for the right button, clasp, snap or buckle. Buttonology features the largest catalogues of Eco-Friendly buttons, Fancy Metal buttons and accessories, and Natural buttons made from real shell and horn.

Customize your buttons how you want! Add your custom logo to the face of each button, or dye up your buttons into custom colorways. Review button samples in your home or office before approving them to be shipped to your Contractor halfway around the world. Speak to a Buttonologist during every step of your journey, so you know that the clothes that you’re making will never be without the perfect button.
