      I'd love to get an opinion from folks who have upgraded to the copper snaps. I had my black wester Kersey upgraded quite a while back to the copper snaps and they look fantastic, but unfortunately I can't wear the shirt open at all because the snaps are so loud - it seriously sounds like a rain stick when I walk around if I don't have them all snapped up and it's been this way since I got it but just never bothered wear it open until now. Is my shirt a one off or have other experienced this with those specific snaps?

        Copper or brass? I know the brass ones make a noise because of the way thet are constructed, I have not heard of the copper ones making any noise.

            These can have a little rattle to them depending on the fabric but rainstick is both humourios and alarming - Want to get it back to us and we can take a look and re-snao them tighter? Just drop me a PM or email.

              @Graham can I email you a short video of them making the noise? They make noise with the slightest movement or touch but if its just a matter of hammering them down tighter I can give it a try with a rubber mallet or something maybe?

                  @SilentMikal I personally find that hammering them down tighter does not make as much of a difference as a fresh install at better tension so would really love to get this back to make it as perfect as possible for you.

                      @SilentMikal FWIW, the same copper snaps came standard on my CPO. Mine don't rattle.

                            A few new options on the IHSH-414-WHT/BLK. I know these aren't snaps but they're absolutely an upgrade 😁

                                @goosehd Cheers much. These were actually shot by @Freeman so I can't take all the credit. Button application is one of my favourite parts of the day though.

                                        Can someone answer this question please. When you upgrade buttons or snaps, is it $25 per each being replaced? So for example is a shirt has 12 being changed to copper than an additional $300?

                                          @jimcord the cost is for the whole shirt 👍

                                          Edit: sadly, does not apply to Good Art upgrades….
