Collection: PIN FASTENERS

Pins attract attention, pin fasteners ensure they stay put. If you're filling your jacket, vest, denim vest, or tote bag with Gothic pins, you don't want to find your favorite badge on the festival ground. That's exactly where our EASURE pin fasteners come in: small, black, metallic – but with maximum hold.

Why good pin clasps can save your Gothic outfit

You know the feeling: You brush past someone in a club, take off your jacket, put down your backpack – later you realize your pin is missing. Lost in the crowd, collector's heart broken.

Typical problems:

• The pin lock no longer holds properly.
• Cheap butterfly clasps wear out.
• Rubber fasteners get lost.
• With heavy enamel pins, the pin constantly rotates or falls off completely.

With high-quality pin safety clasps, this doesn't happen so easily. Especially with the intricately detailed, sometimes limited-edition Gothic pins from our Gothic Pins collection, upgrading the clasps is worthwhile.

What type of pin closures can you find at EASURE?

In our Pin Fasteners category you will find various options that are perfect for Gothic outfits, robes, battle jackets and backpacks.

We offer you:

• Black metal clasp – classic pin clasp in matte black
• Silver metal clasp – clean look, ideal for silver pins
• Gold metal clasp – for those who prefer something a little more elegant.
• Metal safety lock – Pin Keeper with additional security
• Rubber pin closure (black) – soft look, comfortable on the skin

All variants come in a practical 10-pack – perfect for upgrading your existing pins or securely equipping new pieces from our EASURE Pins collection .

Metal, rubber, or safety clasp? Here's how to choose the right pin clasp.

To help you see at a glance which pin fastener is suitable for your intended use, here is a compact overview:

Type of pin closure	Ideally suited for	Advantages
Metal clasp (black, silver, gold)	Jackets, vests, bags, caps	Robust, secure hold, visually matches metal pins
Black rubber closure	Shirts, hoodies, lightweight fabrics	Pleasant on the skin, no itching, discreet appearance
Metal safety lock	Expensive/limited edition pins, festival vest, backpack	Extra secure hold, hard to lose, ideal as a "pin keeper"

Your goal: Your pins are secure, don't cut into your skin, and visually match the rest of your outfit.

Pin safety lock: Extra protection for your favorite pins

Do you love enamel pins with lots of dark art, occult symbolism, and anti-fascist statements? Then you know the thrill of checking after a concert whether all the pins are still in place.

A pin safety lock (often also called a "pin keeper") blocks the prong much more effectively than a simple butterfly lock. This is particularly worthwhile for:

• limited edition or sold-out pins
• large, heavy pins (e.g. on robes)
• Pins on backpacks, bags or purses
• Pins you wear to festivals or in crowds

Take your time to look at the security clasps in our Pin Clasps category and equip your most important items with them.

Rubber pin fasteners: soft hold for shirts and hoodies

Metal prongs on bare skin are annoying. For shirts, hoodies, and anything else worn directly against the skin, rubber closures are perfect. Our black rubber pin closure fits snugly, feels soft, and won't pinch uncomfortably, even after hours at the club.

Especially practical:

• Ideal for your favorite designs on Gothic hoodies
• Perfect for pins on gothic shirts made from organic cotton.
• It visually complements black clothing and does not compete with the design.

Problem solver: What to do if the pin lock doesn't hold?

If the pin lock doesn't hold , it's usually due to one of three things:

• The pin's prong is bent or too thin.
• The old clasp is worn out.
• The quality of the original closure was poor.

Give your pins a second life with new metal or rubber pin closures from EASURE. Here are a few tips:

• Go through your entire collection and replace any loose fasteners.
• Use a metal safety clasp for jackets, robes, and bags.
• For skin contact and light items such as tights, tops or delicate fabrics, elastic closures are suitable – matching our Gothic tights .

This is how you ensure that your look stays consistent in everyday life, in clubs and at festivals.

Buy pin fasteners at EASURE: small, but with scene attitude

EASURE stands for Gothic fashion, dark art, and a clear anti-fascist stance . Our pin fasteners don't look like toys; they fit a dark, alternative style.

• Color scheme: black, silver, gold – no colorful plastic kitsch

• Ideal as an addition to your new Gothic bracelet or your pin-studded tote bag

You get 10 pieces per pack. That's enough for a full denim vest or even several outfits. Especially if you're ordering new pins from the Gothic Accessories category, it's worth buying pin clasps at the same time and adding them to your cart.

How to combine pin closures with your Gothic style

Your pins tell stories: Baphomet, pentagrams, horror icons, witchcraft, anti-fascist symbols. With the right pin clasps, you can securely integrate these stories into your outfit.

• Pins with pentagrams and occult symbolism fit perfectly into our Pentagram Collection .
• Cute or spooky designs like the Cute Baphomet Pin or the Heart Pentagram Pin are securely fastened with safety clasps.
• Combine Gothic pins on the collar, lapel or breast pocket with a matching Gothic necklace – the pin closures ensure that everything stays in place.

With a small detail like a pin safety clasp, you can get more out of your overall look without disturbing the focus of your subjects.

Think sustainably: Protect pins instead of buying new ones

EASURE works with hand-printed organic textiles, small production runs, and a production process closely connected to the local scene in Krefeld. This commitment doesn't stop with pin fasteners .

By protecting your existing pins with good closures, you are acting consciously:

• You lose less, you consume more consciously.
• You appreciate collectibles and limited edition designs.
• You strengthen your individual style instead of constantly buying cheap goods.

Your Gothic clothes, your pins, your values ​​– you wear this combination visibly every day through the streets, clubs and festivals.

FAQ about pin locks

What is a pin clasp?

A pin closure is the small piece on the back of a pin badge that secures the pin prong. Without a pin closure, the prong slips out of the fabric, the pin falls off, or twists. Our metal and rubber pin closures clamp the prong firmly in place and secure your Gothic pins to jackets, hoodies, backpacks, and bags.

Which pin lock holds the most securely?

For maximum security, a metal pin keeper* is ideal. This pin keeper grips the prong much more securely than a standard butterfly clasp. For vests, heavy enamel pins, and valuable collectibles, we recommend the security options from our Pin Clasps category.

When do I use a rubber pin closure?

A rubber pin closure is perfect for lightweight fabrics and anything worn directly against the skin: shirts, hoodies, dresses. Rubber is less constricting, doesn't scratch, and looks more discreet. For example, if you're wearing pins on one of your gothic shirts , a rubber closure will usually feel more comfortable than hard steel.

What do I do if my pin lock no longer holds?

Replace any pin fasteners that no longer hold. Old butterfly clasps wear out, especially with thicker fabrics or if you frequently change the pins. Replace them with new metal or safety clasps. The 10-packs in our "Buy Pin Fasteners" category are ideal for this.

How many pin clasps do I need for my collection?

For a regular jacket or vest with a few Gothic pins, 10–20 pin fasteners are usually sufficient. If you have larger collections spread across multiple jackets, bags, and backpacks, it's best to buy two or three 10-packs right away. This way, you can immediately replace loose fasteners and secure new pins as soon as they arrive from your Gothic pin collection.

Do your pin locks fit all pins?

Our pin closures fit the standard prongs of enamel and metal pins – meaning they fit most pins in our own collection and in the scene. Standard metal and safety closures secure standard prongs, while rubber closures reliably clamp even thinner prongs. They are less suitable for extremely thick or exotic special shapes, but ideal for classic Gothic pins.

Why should I order pin locks at the same time?

With additional pin clasps, you can ensure your new Gothic pins are ready to use and securely attached. It's especially worthwhile to stock up on these when making new purchases of Gothic accessories or jewelry . You'll protect expensive, sometimes limited-edition designs and save yourself the heartbreak of losing a favorite pin in the festival mud.
