Was wondering if anyone can help? Ive got a Ducati corsa C4 (Dainese) leather jacket and one of the poppers on the wrist closure has come off, Anyone know where i could purchase new poppers?
Hi. The best quality press studs are the ones the military use. Called ‘Lift the Dot’. If you goggle this you will be able the buy a small number, along with an easy to use fixing kit to set the rivets. It’s a basic hammer and punch kit with anvil disc. They come in various sizes, you will need the diameter and material thickness etc. Buy direct from the manufacture if possible as they are very helpful.
Or take it to a specialist that repairs motorcycle leather goods. Probably the easiest if you have one locally. Some quality manufactures like Dainese etc offer a postal repair service. You may have to hunt around a bit.
Not sure if it's the same these days as when I used to work for a Dainese dealer (Sondels at Highbury Corner), admittedly this was 25 years ago... The factory supplied a boxed repair kit for things like this so that dealers could do on the spot repairs. Might be worth contacting a few near you to see if they still do this.
Folk thanks for the advice, Spoke to a Ducati/ Dianese dealer and they've got me sorted with the poppers
