I already replaced the snaps on my winter coat with larger snaps because the brass snaps were constantly popping open. The new ones are great. It took a little less than an hour to do the replacement of six snap buttons. Thank you for your guidance.

Thank-you so much for your helpful videos! My grandmother was a master seamstress in Boston. She could sew (with or without patterns), take off, put on and/or replace anything when it came to sewing. I am not that way. Just starting out and so far, trying to not sew my fingers together. This video gave me enough courage to replace the broken snaps on my cape! Again, Thank-you! Two thumbs up, fav'd and subscribed.

Thanks! I'm teaching myself to hand sew and embroider like found on 1800's dresses and coats. So far, my fingers are still intact. You're right. My grandma was bad ass, but she didn't know it. She could just look at a coat in the windows of say, Filene’s, Newmark's or Jordan Marsh. Study it carefully. Go home and copy the coat exactly without a pattern. Holy Mother Of Puppies! WAWAK ROCKS! I set up an account there and plan to buy a lot!. I've built enough courage to buy the snaps and the tools needed for my cape. When my mom passed, I got my cape I had lent her back. For some Brain-Fart reason, the nursing home laundry people had removed all the snaps and replaced them with Velcro. Needless to say I was mad as hell! :)

The best hammer for striking a punch is a Ball peen hammer. They come in different oz so the weight will give you more downward force for different levels of jobs. 16 oz should be enough for snaps but 24 oz might do it in one strike. I hope this helps and thank you for the video. 🙏

Great video! I have a question though. I have many baseball satin jackets. The snaps already lost they’re color and need to be changed, but my issue is that type of fabric is probably very easy to rip or cut or damage bc it doesn’t any resistance to pull or pushing the snaps around I imagine, so would you recommend me to find someone to do it or do you think i could try it by myself? Thank you so much!

I think that's a question for you to answer. How comfortable do you feel with it? If the snap is functioning properly and you just want to change the color, maybe look into getting some nail polish to touch up the color instead of replacing the snaps.

Bought a jacket with a busted snap. It was half priced, so figured I would buy it anyway and fix it with the provided parts. Now I see I don't have the tools, plus the snap hole is only part way through the winter coat, so would require ripping stitches and resewing them after finished. Good to see how to do it though!

Thanks for the detailed video! Since I'm just looking to repair one cardigan for now and not planning to install tons of snaps in the future, I'm thinking of getting just a setter and anvil set to save money. A lot of the sets I'm seeing just say "snap setter and anvil" rather than "spring snap setter and anvil." The ones that do specify they're for spring snaps happen to not be in the size I need (24L / Line 24 / 5/8"). Do the setter and anvil need to specify they're for spring snaps, or are the tools the same even if they just say "snap setter"? Thanks for your time!

This is discussed in the video. Once the pieces were used, they can't be reused. They're hammered together and it distorts the metal. If you tried to reuse the cap it will likely not hold the post of the other piece very well and it will fail. You can try, but don't be surprised if they come apart on the first use.

There is a button part, it's just in between the layers of the placket. You'll need to open that up, repair the fabric, reinstall a new snap, and then close the placket. Or you could just do it quick and dirty and put the new snap through the placket, but the button portion of the snap will be visible on the outside of the jacket.

No idea! I've only seen them when removing existing snaps. If you need to take up space I would cut little donuts out of fabric until you get the appropriate thickness.

You'll need to do a small repair of the area before installing a new snap. Find a matching thread color, and either use a sewing machine to stitch back and forth over the area to reinforce it, or hand sew your fabric together as best you can.

Hey there! I recently got a jacket and I realized that the snap is like in…3 sections I guess because it has a detachable scarf as an accessory. So…it has your standard spring snap look to it, but the female side snaps into another piece that’s on the inside of the jacket and quite frankly, I don’t want to cut the jacket open in order to fix this…what else can I do?

Depends on where you go to have the work done. I charge $5-7 per snap. It'll be a little more up front to do it yourself as you'll need the tools and the parts but then you're pretty much set for life.

Hi there so I been trying to order the correct snaps but get no where I have a varsity jack with a missing snap not the front part but the part where the snap clicks but I keep getting the wrong type or size I measured it I thought it was 12mm but I am not very good at measuring I have a few varsity jackets and spotted it's a generic snap on most so my question is what's the correct snap for the varsity jack and size this is a massive help for what to do I have the small tools u use I just need to find the correct size and correct type

Just a tip. If you keep using metal on metal with your tools(the hammer and rivet setter) you are going to destroy them over time. Better to use a poly hammer or rubber mallet. 👍

Not really. They're designed to lock the pieces together. Without them you'll just smash the parts and they won't hold.

You're asking how to make a coverall into a jacket? That's more redesigning than alterations. I couldn't say exactly what you need to do without seeing how the garment is constructed, but it will be a fairly advanced process.
