Snap Upgrades

Can we order copper male ends? I’m horrible with the terminology. I noticed that 2 of the shirts I have converted came with chrome male ends. Didn’t know if that was the only option. Would love to order copper male ends if it’s an option.

As a rule we do not replace the male snap parts when conducting a snap upgrade as listed on the product page. However, we do keep some pieces in-house for repairs. We may be able tp provide you with some to afix at home - We do two sizes of male studs - regular size which come on the majority of shirts and a larger 'cpo' size which come on cpo shirts like the 362 and 290 etc - If you can let me know which shirts they are we can do if we have some for you.

@Graham Thanks for the reply Graham. I never actually held the snaps up against my 292 / 293.
I have a Kersey Western and the IHSH-235-OLV.
I had had the update done about a month ago, but didn’t realize I need to request oversized. Is that the difference?

@jmp777 stud and post is what you're looking for

You have done everything right as we do not change the male studs in house. What size you need depends on what was on it stock. Being a kersey western, you will want some copper regular sized male studs.
Let me see if we have enough in the workshop spare to provide you with a set and I will be in touch.
@Eza Same for you man, how many are you looking for - just 2-4 for some sleeves?

@Graham, yeah, looking for extra studs and posts the standard Permex 15mm #201 found on westerns. I am willing to pay, since I have 4 shirts, I am looking to double up so four posts and studs per shirt 16 total.... My CPO is fine since with the elbow creases they are perfect...thanks for your quick reply

Thanks so much @Graham I’m more inclined to get them for the Olive Serge, but if there’s enough for both shirts, let me know and I can send $.
You all rock!

What a combo!
17mm Good Art on the IHSH-421.Lol good God. That's an expensive shirt!
It would be cool if they were just snap covers that you could interchange on each shirt though.

@branpureza Goodart made silver and brass snap covers years ago.

The copper snaps I've been seeing in other threads have been tasty!
