Cat Eye shirt buttons ?

[Doug C]

Hi Lady's I'm posting this here because I figured this subforum would be my best chance ... I'm looking for the dark blue (plastic/melanine?) "cat eye" buttons that used to be used on the USN chambrey work shirts back in the early days. Does anyone know of a place that might have some? Either vintage or new makes no real difference. And if "cat eye" types are no longer available, then can someone recommend a fair match for color, size etc? I haven't even checked at the local big chain fabric stores, but figured no need to since they didn't carry all cotton military type thread last time I checked with them. So thanks for any and all help, in Advance.

mods: feel free to move this to a better place if you feel it's necessary or better..just let me know where if you don't mind.
