Original Demo Prototype

The original prototype. 

Variations in the materials showing light vs dark denim and variations in the baseball buttons.  Earlier buttons are more bold, some are lighter blue, the last example is shiny.

Each version of the denim with and without buttons in pairs.  From left to right: light denim, medium denim, dark denim, extra dark denim.  I have not seen the extra dark denim with buttons.
