I'm just a little curious about how marching band buttons work, since nearly all are just decorational and the real buttons aren't visible. I know some use cheap zippers and such, but what about higher quality marching band jackets?
Also, I'd like to know a little more about what marching band jackets are based on. I know they're styled after older military jackets, but what time period in what nationality were they used? How do the original strip-across-the-middle buttons marching band jackets are modeled after work?
