Fine gauge cashmere, merino wool, and alpaca cardigans are among the most luxurious garments in a luxury wardrobe. However, knitwear possesses inherent elasticity. Over time, pushing rigid buttons through knitted button loops stretches delicate yarns, leading to loose, misshapen buttonholes and unaligned fronts. magtech® concealed fasteners protect delicate knitwear fibers.

1. Preserving Knit Stitch Tension

Knitted textiles lack the rigid cross-weave of woven fabrics. Traditional buttoning places tension on individual wool loops, causing permanent elongation. Concealed magnetic snaps distribute holding force across a stabilized backing ribbon, preserving original knit tension.

2. Eliminating Puckered Front Bands

When buttonholes stretch, the cardigan front band begins to ripple and sag. By replacing button-and-hole setups with self-aligning magnetic discs, front bands remain crisp and straight through years of wear.

3. Artisanal Jewelry Accents

For designers who desire a decorative front accent, magtech® resin sphere buttons provide the look of artisanal jewelry on the outside, while delivering effortless magnetic connection underneath without straining fragile wool loops.
