Title: Button for clothes

Abstract: A button for clothes is composed of a button body and a reverse button having a needle member as a set. The button body is formed on its base plate center with an axial hole for insertion of the needle member of the reverse button. The inside of the button body is provided with an engaging means for firm engagement of the needle member of the reverse button inserted into the inside through the axial hole and a detaching means for release of engagement of the needle member that is engaged with the button body. The engaging means is formed by an engaging member provided with a ring portion to be retained between the base plate and an ornament member by means of a thin plate member. The ring portion is formed integrally with two pawl pieces which extend diametrically from the ring portion toward the center. Each of the pawl pieces is formed with a semi-circular notch at its respective ends whereby the notches form a circular hole that coincides with the axial hole of the base plate. The detaching means is formed with a through hole at a location where one of the pawl pieces of the base plate is located.
