If you need help determining what size would work best, see some size comparisons and helpful information here (coming soon).
We start by printing your design on our HP Indigo – the world's best digital printer.
We then cover the printed layer with a glossy, transparent layer of plastic (Mylar, to be specific) to protect your design and ensure it withstands bumps, scratches, water, and chemicals.
Choose to have your 1.25" button design printed on white, silver, gold, holographic & glitter material.
These different materials create various incredible effects for your button.
White is the best for true-to-design colors & small details, whereas silver, gold, holographic & glitter will add a touch of bling and a premium feel that makes your design pop.
Your 1.25" buttons are finished with a high-quality, transparent plastic protective layer that adds a glossy shine to your button and protects it against scratches and water.

Product reviews
1.25 inch buttons: the classic pin size
The 1.25" button is a classic – just a little larger than a half dollar. It's big enough for a logo and a few words, and small enough to wear every day on a jacket, bag or lanyard.
How we make them
We print your design on an HP Indigo digital press, cover it with a clear, glossy Mylar film that protects against bumps, scratches and water, and press it onto a metal shell with a pin back.
Special-effect materials
Print on white for true-to-design colors and fine detail, or choose silver, gold, holographic or glitter for a premium finish that catches the light.
Popular uses
Band and artist merch, staff name buttons, campaign and cause buttons, event giveaways and collectible sets.
Design tips
Keep text short and bold, and keep important details away from the edge – a thin border wraps around the side of the button. Need a different size? See 1" buttons, 1.5" buttons or 2.25" buttons.
