If you are using sass you can simply set below mentioned variables,

$slick-font-family:FontAwesome;
$slick-prev-character: "\f053";
$slick-next-character: "\f054";

These will change the font family used by slick's theme css and also the unicode for prev and next button.

Other sass variables which can be configured are given in Slick Github page

Slick has a very easy way to customize its buttons through two variables in its own configuration  prevArrow and nextArrow   Both types are  string  html   jQuery selector    object  DOM node   jQuery object   so in your settings slick slider you can set the classes   prevArrow      prev   nextArrow      next     and add to these elements the styles you want    For example     HTML  lt div class  slider-box  clearfix  gt       lt div class  slick-slider  gt           lt div gt               lt img src  img home carousel home carorusel 1 jpg  gt           lt  div gt           lt div gt               lt img src  img home carousel home carorusel 2 jpg  gt           lt  div gt           lt div gt               lt img src  img home carousel home carorusel 3 jpg  gt           lt  div gt           lt div gt               lt img src  img home carousel home carorusel 4 jpg  gt           lt  div gt       lt  div gt   lt  div gt    lt div class  paginator-center text-color text-center  gt       lt h6 gt VER MAS LANZAMIENTOS lt  h6 gt       lt ul gt           lt li class  prev  gt  lt  li gt           lt li class  next  gt  lt  li gt       lt  ul gt   lt  div gt     JS   document  ready function            slick-slider   slick         centerMode  true        centerPadding   60px         slidesToShow  3        prevArrow      prev          nextArrow      next           CSS  paginator    position  relative    float  right    margin-bottom  20px     li      margin-top  20px      position  relative      float  left       margin-right  20px        amp  prev        display  block        height  20px        width  20px        background  url     img back png   no-repeat              amp  next        display  block        height  20px        width  20px        background  url     img next png   no-repeat

The Best way i Found to do that is this  You can remove my HTML and place yours there       home-banner-slider   slick       dots  false      infinite  true      autoplay  true      autoplaySpeed  3000      speed  300      slidesToScroll  1      arrows  true      prevArrow    lt div class  slick-prev  gt  lt i class  fa fa-angle-left  aria-hidden  true  gt  lt  i gt  lt  div gt        nextArrow    lt div class  slick-next  gt  lt i class  fa fa-angle-right  aria-hidden  true  gt  lt  i gt  lt  div gt
