Where can I find these clips?

Thinktank uses them on some of it's straps. There is a plastic version called a Slik Clip, but they are not strong enough and have a bit of a reputation for breaking under load.

Whoops, I thought it was the slick clips you needed.

Aarn use them on their balance pockets. Perhaps shoot him an email?

Aha. Just checked, he used to use the plastic ones but my newer pockets have something like this with metal clips on them. Same logo, but indistinguishable writing!

Will try a close up photo, maybe I can read it then...

Can't locate on the website but the pole clip looks ideal for joining two trekking poles together for mids!

The Thinktank one looks like it's a no-sew solution, but at least I have found the source. They have a single gatekeeper that might suit also:

Now just need to find a stockist...

[edit] Strider is on the case! :)

Just an off chance. Six Moons Designs were using the single gatekeeper to attach the hip belt to the now discontinued Swift pack. May be worth dropping Ron a line to see if they have a few available.

Thanks for all the help.

Found some at Tom Bihn for reasonable price and shipping.
