Shirt Button
SHIRT BUTTON The other day, one of my brand new shirts was put up for washing after being worn just once. Imagine my surprise that after washing it transpired that one of the spare buttons had broken in half. Half of it was still hanging on. It was one of the two spare buttons which the manufacturer stitches on the lower edge of the shirt for your use if any of the regular front buttons break or gets damaged. It was fully intact when I had worn it. The shirt was fine in all other respects. I am in a big dilemma as to what to do. If any of the main front buttons had broken then simply sew on the spare one. But what to do if the very spare is broken ? There are several options available, and so many things can happen. Spare buttons provided with shirt 1. The shirt can be taken back to the store (I have the receipt) where they may admonish me “Only the spare button is broken, the shirt is intact, why are you making such a fuss ?” But it is a matter of principle as so
