It was probably done to save money at the time because World War 2 was going on at the time so they switched to buttons.
Another answer:
Zippers may have been switched to buttons so that the metal saved from not having zippers could be used in the war effort.

For decades, older sailors told incoming sailors that the 13 buttons on the front of the bell bottoms represented the original 13 colonies. The myth was so commonplace , it actually had to be excised from Navy history texts. Sailors originally used a drawstring to hold up their pants, but threw away the drawstrings in 1864 when a new version of the bellbottoms was designed with seven buttons across the top holding the crotch flap. With a nod toward comfort in more tropical climates, the Navy elongated the flap(also called a broadfall) in 1897, and two buttons were added to each side, now totalling 11. But as Navy men grew broader-possibly thanks to improvement in nutrition-the flap needed to grow longer. So in 1905 more buttons were added, creating those 13 buttons. Why buttons instead of zippers? Beacause buttons are much easier to replace on the fly, and early zippers may have corroded in the salty weather.

They do not have zippers. Amish clothing styles are simple and meant to be functional. Clothing is made at home out of plain fabrics and is usually dark in color. Lighter colors are used for younger children and sometimes for summer shirts and dresses for adults. Amish men wear straight-cut suits and coats without collars, lapels or pockets called mutza suits. Most men wear black. Their trousers never have creases or cuffs and are worn with suspenders. The wearing of belts is forbidden, as are sweaters and neckties. Men's shirts fasten with traditional buttons in most orders, while suit coats and vests fasten with hooks and eyes. Their pants are made with a flap in the front held closed by buttons to avoid the use of a zipper.
