Parallel Snaps Vs Ring Snaps

Recommended Posts

Is one better than the other for small items like wallets? Is it just a matter of personal taste?

Thanks in advance.

I prefer parallel snaps for thinner leathers. I have had good luck with the Prym brand. Expensive, but very high quality.

Thanks for the info Michelle. What dies do you use to set Prym snaps?

I use the hand setter set from Ohio Travel Bag. Heavy duty, made and work very well. I ruin very few Prym snaps in setting them. I've not seen the need to buy dies for my hand press.

I don't like ring snaps for small things cause when unsnapped, the Rings rattle. Universal fasteners/YKK makes them in different sizes and finishes and they are nice.
