Helpful vid. I removed the old ones by squeezing from sides with vice grips. A few times progressively tighter around the sides, and pop, out they came!

THANK YOU! I was able to fix a snap on a very very very expensive raincoat because of your video! It made it soooo easy.

This is a cool video. Thanks for posting and for taking the time my friend :)

Thanks for posting. Just what I needed.

Perfectly helpful. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!

Thanks! Like the glue idea. I got the same kit. Got three more pairs to do to replace the wimp snaps. Blauer snaps suck.

Thank you for sharing, now i can fix my pocket book.

Thank you so much for this. Very well explained. Subbed !

Pretty snappy!

Thank you so much!!!

Thanks for the video.. My snap broken won't hold And the very 1st video I run across had the exact same problem with the same pair pains..

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!

Thank you!

it would be helpful if you would show the glue being applied. Thank you.

Very good video, Dan. What size are the snaps?

Are those 5.11 Tactical's Taclite Pro? I ended up on your video because I just got a couple pairs and in less than a month the snaps broke.

Jesse Pearce I won’t buy them anymore just for that reason. That’s the most important mechanism on the pants! They had one thing to get right!

Two of my 5.11 pants have the same problem. Now I know how to repair them. Gorilla glue is a polyurethane water activated glue, so it’s better if you dampen the cloth in the area where the repair is, that will make it stick better.

The sound is a little difficult, but the information is good.

One machine parchase

Why do 511 use such cheap snaps? Less than a month the snap doesn't hold properly

Good question. You'd think they'd spend 30 cents for better snaps. I gave these pants a 2-star review solely because of the low quality snap. These would be trash in 1 month for most people.

If that snap caused that much damage maybe you should consider going up one waist size. If those snaps are under that much pressure maybe two snaps till you get the new size . No shame it happens to us all.
