Toggle-fastenings offer an alternative to zippers that occasionally jam or break. Fasteners help reinforce a section of a garment and add structural integrity. These toggles can be used to use when making period clothing. In the Medieval Era toggles were used on shirts, fastening cloaks, pants, and shoes. You can also use these toggles to close pouches, bags, and leather diaries or books. This set of five toggles is made from all natural cow horn and hand polished.
