Custom Plastic Side Release Buckle
A plastic side release buckle at 3/4 inch or made to your own size, in customised colours. This line exists for buyers who need a specific moulded colour rather than one of the five standard shades, and colour has to be confirmed against a physical chip before tooling.
The made-to-order colour route in plastic, for brands whose colour is not in the standard set.
