Boot Hooks and Backs
Boot Fasteners
Two part boot fasteners that are perfect for lacing leather corsets etc.
These are great for re-enactment clothing, outdoor clothing, sturdy corsets wand are a quick way to lace and unlace.
You will need to make a pilot hole for these fasteners push the 2 parts together and fix home carefully with a hammer, you will need to put something under the edge of the hook (e.g a screwdriver) to prevent it squashing . You will probably find your own method off fixing them, if you do please let us know.
TOP TIP
Thanks to Kevin for his suggestion
"Rather than use a screwdriver to fit them, I thought to try with two thin pieces of metal and two small G clamps to pein-over, or rather' squeeze the fastenings together just like fitting eyelets but without the hammering"
Er...also good for making and repairing boots and shoes!
NEW Slightly different style now available in silver finish, these finish with a separate 2 part rivet.
