Suggestions Needed For Pouch Flap Fastener

Recommended Posts

So I'm working on a belt pouch for a belated father's day gift and I have it sewed together (thread with the prototype) but need a solution for fastening the larger pouch.

The smaller pouch will house an enormous swiss army knife, so a snap will have a solid mass to press against and snap shut. The larger pouch, however, will house a headlamp which will fill the space but will lack a solid mass to press against.

I'm looking for viable options for keeping the flap securely closed. At the moment I'm leaning toward a toggle button from a piece of antler or the manliest clasp Tandy carries, but I'm fishing for something better.

Any suggestions?

Traditionally, I have seen these button studs on similar design pouches.

If you wanted more mechanical solution, numerous style clasps are available.
