It's so you can put the buttons on yourself and make into either a mens jacket or a womens jacket depending on which side you put the buttons on.

Most of the more expensive riding jackets have buttons attached to a smaller button or toggle so that you just pop the smaller button through the hole and voila there is your button ready to do up, no sewing. It's so you can remove them to wash the jacket without the buttons getting caught up.
If you check the swing tags to make sure the buttons are not in a little bag, also check the pockets - these may be sewn up with the buttons inside. Or ring the manufacturer and explain your predicament?
If not you can buy them, think Pikeur do them so you could have posh buttons:
