Hello all, Don't know if such an item exist, but I'm looking for some type of rivet to connect two pieces of leather together, but have the pieces swivel independently from each other. Thanks

Use a screw rivet that has an extra long shaft, so the caps don't press on the leather. Loc-tite on the threads.

Any rivet will do that if the leather isn't glued or sewn together just don't set them tight if they have a small head use washers on them so they don't pull through. 

Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms.

A washer between the pieces helps as well.

I use Chicago screws for the attachment points on my chest rig holsters with purple loctite. Snug, but moveable.
