Solution

  • If you don't want to touch font or add a new font containing icons matching your design, You can achieve something similar by overriding the css:

    .flex-direction-nav a {
    display: block;
    width: 40px;
    height: 40px;
    margin: -20px 0 0;
    position: absolute;
    top: 50%;
    z-index: 10;
    overflow: hidden;
    opacity: 0;
    cursor: pointer;
    color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8);
    text-shadow: none;
    -webkit-transition: all 0.3s ease-in-out;
    -moz-transition: all 0.3s ease-in-out;
    -ms-transition: all 0.3s ease-in-out;
    -o-transition: all 0.3s ease-in-out;
    transition: all 0.3s ease-in-out;
    color: #fff;
    background-color: #000;
    border-radius: 50%;
    text-align: center;
}
.flex-direction-nav a:before {
    font-family: "flexslider-icon";
    font-size: 20px;
    display: inline-block;
    content: '\f001';
    color: #FFF;
    text-shadow: 1px 1px 0 rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3);
    line-height: 40px;
}
.flex-direction-nav .flex-next {
    right: -50px;
    text-align: center;
}

    Here is the result: enter image description here
