The amount of beautiful pins I’ve lost to those military pin backs 😭😭😭 they suuuuuckkkk

[@mophyz1474]

i know the rubber ones keep them on better im geting the locking ones for my new ones

[@laciemeadors6949]

Those little guys are lifesavers! I use them on my work lanyard all the time. Sometimes my coworkers ask me for extras. I had to order more because of them LOL 😂

[@Questem]

Question, do these work well against the pins being pulled off? I once had a collectors pin tugged violently off my bag and wanna keep any future ones safe. Thanks!

[@QueenOfCatsX3]

Oh Absolutely. I use these all the time and it's more likely to rip a hole in what they're attached to than for the backing to pop off

[@AlienAubrey]

@@QueenOfCatsX3Thank you so much for distilling my fears

[@JUNKAI_KETCHUP]

Yup also nice pfp

[@ZUKO-FROMTHEFIRENATION]

OMG thank you for this. Most of mine are from Shein and they constantly fall. Definitely buying these.

[@glitz.exists]

Samee

[@Skyree92]

SAME 😭

[@TsmHedorah]

This was so incredibly useful, thank you for this.

[@seal8092]

Definitely trying these. I had a pin I bought. It was a collectors item, something that would be sold out forever and never restocked item. I bought two of these rare pins. I put one on my bag, in a semi hidden place. The rubber thing came off and I lost! But luckily I found in a weird place. These would be a great fix.

[@pizzathefox8809]

Yeah, I definitely need some pin locks. Mid last year, I took a trip to a park where I wore a mini backpack. I decided to cover it in some of my favourite pins, buttons and brooches....keep in mind, it's not a bubble back pack meant to keep pins. It's a leathery/plastic solid back. When I got back home, nothing seemed to be missing- (as I keep a traveling pin log on me) -except for one. It was a cheap non enamel plastic pin I got from Temu of Cyndaquil from Pokemon....but it still hurt me that it was gone. I had it on a rubber frog (I call pin backings, frogs) and had accidentally placed it on the bottom edge crease of the backpack where it must've came loose whenever I sat the backpack down. Now I know I'm lucky as it could've been one of my more expensive Disney pins. I also mainly wear my pins on my hats, but luckily after two and a half years, I've never lost a pin doing that. Watch those backpacks.

I recently bought a Hatsune Miku enamel that has those locking pins. I didn't know they are more effective until I saw this short. Thank you for this useful information.

[@eeveelover666lol_jk3]

I’m a big fan of enamel pins I think I have like honestly like 18 of them on my Walmart vest and I’ve been there for six months and honestly the real thing that sucked was the key that I use for the lock up that magnet is so strong it yanked off one of the pinz like three times and I lost the rubber pin back but thankfully these are a lifesaver. I just got them today and I think I have them like on three of my pinz already.

[@jazzmeister2485]

Just for your information, in the military, they refer pinbacks as "Dammits" Because that's what you'll say when you lose them, it caught on really fast...

[@Pokeepogo]

That’s one very satisfying click

[@crystalmoon4419]

I LOVE enamel pins!! 🤩✨❤️ Thanks for the tip!

[@tjmack5133]

Thanks, I found this very useful.

[@Dell2YT]

I appreciate locking pin backs so much, but as a collector myself I have to disagree with you on the rubber backings. I've had the exact opposite experience. The rubber backings are the only ones that stay on. The metal butterfly clips never worked for me. I lost a few when I first started collecting them and was left with just the backings that failed me (⁠｡⁠•́⁠︿⁠•̀⁠｡⁠)

[@-SuperNintendo64-oj4bz]

I believe in the Disney parks they have similar locking pins that use a small tightening mechanism rather than a locking one. Would you recommend those just as much as the lock pin backs?

[@Skyree92]

Oml i bought these, THEY WORK SO WELLLL (I have 32 badges that i wear to school so this is a massive investment~ im gonna test them jn september hehe)

[@TheNicolaEllis]

I never knew about these. Thank you so much! I've lost countless on my work bag!

[@fluttershypony1760]

I usually buy doubles of my most favorites but this will save me a lot of money

[@AlienAubrey]

This video is a lifesaver

[@ashtynadams4163]

I really wish I saw this before I lost one of my enamel pins, but oh well, LOL. Back in September, I was at a fair, and I lost my Holiday World enamel pin. I started collecting enamel pins and button pins this year, and I put them on my backpacks and everything you can think of. So after I lost my pin, I was trying to figure out ways I could make them hold on better. I'm definitely going to have to order some of those, and if you're wondering, yes, I got a new Holiday World enamel pin from eBay😂

[@Atylonisus]

And here I thought this guy was gonna ask his question, and immediately chastise us for wearing them at all

[@agnesexline2218]

Wish i knew this before i lost my shiny eevee pin :(

[@imrtl_bsct]

Need those, almost lost a pokemon pin (it was a tcg championship nashville pikachu) because it had a rubber back on it.

[@dka631]

that‘s really useful information for me thank you

[@snooseyoulose]

I like that little video tape it’s cute

[@DenaityHernandez]

Where were these when I was in my alt kid 2020 phase 😭

[@ryan8828]

Can we get a showcase of your pins? Would be cool to see

[@MADZ_ALL_DAY]

You can also use a tiny rubber back from earings. Especialy good for competion/ national pins

[@meta-memes9060]

Ty

[@asmrwithme543]

I have the Yoshi one ❤😂

[@Gamatech123]

I'm in a minority that personally doesn't like locking pin backs... I find they physically hurt underneath your nails to get off each time, and they're generally more expensive as well. If I wore mine out and about I think my opinion would be different, but mine rarely leave the house and stay on display :P

[@AloiseHandle]

Thanks. I don't wear them though, but I want to someday.

[@scubastevedamnyou]

I disagree. I think the rubber ones are best because they don’t poke your head and you can push them in a little harder to stay. The metal ones like to break and fall off or break and get jammed and stuck on.

[@captn4114]

Ty for the info

[@cadie69]

Can also use a hot glue stick by cutting a piece if you can't get one, I've tried and it's very drabble

[@andpersand25]

Oh thanks!!

[@ScarletZahra]

I love these but i only have one for my 100+ badge collection🥲

[@DMT4Dinner]

Cool thanks

[@tfazer1985]

I was in a junior military class and I want to say that it's not called a military back there called darnets

[@AaaaNinja]

I got rubber backs for the pins I'm making because a friend told me to because they hold on better than the military whatevers. But you're saying they fall off. Now I'm confused, did I waste my effort?

[@GOLDENTO3]

Disney has them aswell

[@michievousworld]

Thank you for this info 🤯

[@unicron8soundwave724]

Thank you

[@amazingshubha]

Thanks

[@joomomma9463]

Till one gets stuck and you cant remove it.

[@EVHORIA4EVER]

What’s the link to those pin savers to buy?

[@taralucent1219]

I had locking pin backs on all my pins and they rusted.

[@cristinegaleburaga7614]

how to attach military enamel pin ????

[@yurezeth]

Do you have any advice on how to prevent scratches?

[@dew.paws1]

Woah ty!

[@JUNKAI_KETCHUP]

I got these and they work they ain’t going any where :) and they are cheap

[@sonicfreak04]

these are tough to come off

[@zoomda4766]

now what do you do if the back breaks and the pin is still locked in, cause this happened to me

[@kadoman0]

Does anyone know if these will work with #FigPins ?

[@I_cant_sleep69]

Can i use the locking pin back on an enamel pin that came with the military pin?

[@youroldpaljosh3198]

These should be able to work on any standard pin design, but, I can’t really guarantee anything. They work with all the pins I have 👍🏼

[@Primesf]

Where do get such pins🥺

[@lisalegato0109]

Can I clip a metal enamel pin into my hair?

[@Angelpenz]

/e pin

[@pennypin]
