+ | Snap fasteners were patented by Hariber Bauer, a German inventor, in 1885 as a fastener for men’s trousers. In 1886, French inventor Albert-Pierre Raymond also obtained a patent for snap fasteners. The first snap fasteners used a S-shaped spring in the “male” disc rather than the groove that is seen in most snap fasteners in the 21st century. In America, Jack Weil, the founder of Rockmount Ranch Wear, included snaps on his iconic Western-style shirts and spread their use. |

+ | Snap fasteners are iconic for their use in American Western wear and are often used for children’s clothing as an alternative to traditional buttons or zippers which are more difficult for children to use. Press studs or snap fasteners were worn by rodeo cowboys starting in the 1930s because the clothing could be quickly removed if it became snagged in the saddle during a fall. Pearl snaps became popular in the 1950s thanks to singing cowboys like Roy Rogers and Gene Autry, who wore pearl snaps on their fringed and embroidered stage shirts. |
