Choosing leather hardware is less about finding one universal kit than matching the fastening style, assortment, and working material to the project. For leather hardware, patterns & care, the key split here is between snap fasteners for press-stud work and double-cap rivets for repairs or decorative projects. Once that is clear, the choice comes down to size format, material wording, included tools, and how much assortment you need.
Quick take
Start with fastening style, then decide whether the project needs a mixed assortment, a defined snap format, or rivets. The snap-fastener kits are the closure-focused choices; the double-cap rivet set serves repair and decorative work. Among the snap kits, the brass and metal wording separates the first two, while the 70 Sets kit adds a storage-box format and explicit fabric guidance.

Decision matrix
- Fastening style: Match titles containing "Snap Fasteners" or "Press Studs" to a snap-fastener project. Choose "480 Sets Rivets for Leather" when the job specifically calls for double-cap rivets.
- Size format: The Brass Button Snaps and Metal Button Snaps titles both name 10/12/15mm. "70 Sets 15mm 5/8 Snap Fasteners Kit" names a 15mm / 5/8-inch format, while the rivet title specifies three sizes.
- Handling: The first two snap titles include four tools. The 70 Sets description includes a storage box and installation tool, and the rivet description includes three setting tools.
Leather Snap Fasteners Kit 10/12/15mm Brass Button Snaps Press Studs With 4 Tool
The Leather Snap Fasteners Kit 10/12/15mm Brass Button Snaps Press Studs With 4 Tool is a good fit when brass button snaps, mixed finishes, and included setup tools are useful in one purchase. Its title gives three named diameter choices, and the description lists uses spanning leather craft, canvas, jeans, PVC, bags, jackets, and tarps. The 4 Color Mixed attribute aligns with the bronze, silver, grey, and golden finish description. At USD 10.39, it is the lowest listed price. The limitation is format: a mixed-color, multi-size kit may be more assortment than a repair needing one consistent finish and diameter. Choose it for breadth rather than a single-finish match.
Leather Snap Fasteners Kit 10/12/15mm Metal Button Snaps Press Studs With 4 Tool
The Leather Snap Fasteners Kit 10/12/15mm Metal Button Snaps Press Studs With 4 Tool suits a shopper who wants the metal-button-snap wording, three named diameters, and four-tool setup. Its description lists leather craft, canvas, jeans, PVC, jackets, sportswear, bags, and other uses, so it can be matched to several repair or craft contexts. The listed material is metal, while the title keeps the 10/12/15mm format visible. At USD 13.45, it sits USD 3.06 above the brass kit. That spread is the practical limitation when the same size-and-tool format already meets the job; the higher price does not establish a stated performance advantage. Choose it when "metal" best matches the hardware plan.
70 Sets 15mm 5/8" Snap Fasteners Kit - Metal Snaps for Leather Craft Repair
The 70 Sets 15mm 5/8 Snap Fasteners Kit - Metal Snaps for Leather Craft Repair is the quantity-focused snap choice, with 70 sets, a storage box, and an installation tool called out in the description. Its 15mm / 5/8-inch cap is easy to match against a project specification, and the fit-for list names leather craft, jeans, jackets, handbags, belts, and DIY craft. Gun black is the stated color, giving the set a defined finish direction. At USD 12.99, it is priced between the two 10/12/15mm kits. Its concrete limitation is material guidance: the description says it suits light to medium fabric, not thick fabric, and calls for backing on some lightweight, mesh, knitted, or stretch fabrics. Choose it when that guidance fits.
480 Sets Rivets for Leather, 4 Colors 3 Sizes Leather Rivets, Double Cap Rivets
The 480 Sets Rivets for Leather, 4 Colors 3 Sizes Leather Rivets, Double Cap Rivets assortment is the choice when the job calls for double-cap rivets instead of press studs. Its title names 480 sets, four colors, and three sizes; the description adds three setting tools and uses such as broken-belt repair, leather craft, ornaments, shoes, hats, jeans, and jackets. The description also identifies copper with plated colors, so it brings a different hardware format and material wording from the snap kits. At USD 16.95, it is the highest listed price, with a USD 6.56 spread over the USD 10.39 snap kit. The limitation is straightforward: rivets cannot replace a snap-fastener closure when a press stud is required. Choose it for rivet repair or decoration.
Final recommendation by use case
- Brass and mixed-finish snap work: Choose the Leather Snap Fasteners Kit 10/12/15mm Brass Button Snaps Press Studs With 4 Tool when its brass and 4 Color Mixed combination matches the project.
