Where to buy fastex snap buckles?

[HikingMano]

Where's the best place to buy fastex side release snap buckles (or similar, doesn't have to be that brand, just needs to be dependable)? I'm looking for the same kind of snap buckles I see on packs and drop-leg rigs. A good place for webbing would be nice too.

My hiking daypack doesn't come with straps to secure stuff to the bottom of the pack (like a blanket or pad), though it does have anchor loops. I'd like to get a couple of simple snap buckles and some webbing to make my own simple straps.

Thanks in advance.

If you have a well stocked retailer (like REI) for outdoor "stuff" they should have webbing and associated hardware. I've gotten buckles, velcro and webbing from Country Brook designs on e-bay with good results. I've also ordered from Creative Design Works.

Quest Outfitters is great. We've purchased lots from them. :thumbup::thumbup:

REI also carries Fastex buckles and other hardware.

Awesome, thanks guys. :thumbup: I didn't know REI would stock hardware like that, I suppose I'll check them first since they're local. If I have no luck there, I'll check out the other sources you all have provided :thumbup:

This will beat using paracord and cord locks

REI is the place to go. I picked up a couple of these a while back for about $0.75 each:

Mine have a built-in whistle though.

REI has a half aisle at my store with many kinds of straps, assorted buckle sizes and other things to modify, repair or improve your pack.

That's great, I'll stop by sometime tonight or this weekend to see what mine has. Makes sense that they'd have that stuff on hand. Thanks again guys :thumbup:
