Abstract

A custom cuff link structure and a method for making the same that allows for the use of the cuff link with both shirts that have cuffs specifically designed to receive cuff links and shirts that are designed with simple button and buttonhole cuffs. The structure and method use ordinary buttons or other toggles and clothing accessories that are modified to incorporate looped strands of a clear polymer fiber to allow the retention of the button like component on the cuff of the shirt. A first embodiment allows the manufacture of customized cuff links utilizing polymer based fibers or button like objects selected by the maker. A second embodiment anticipates factory made cuff links that incorporate the same basic design. Use of the cuff links may be in conjunction with shirt cuffs not specifically intended for use with cuff links, whereby a hidden button may be connected with the looped polymer fiber.
