What these clips are from? I found them in a wooded area where I have found all manner of things from the 1800s to present day. They(found 2 of them) are some sort of spring clip that were attached to something that rotted away. I assume that they went together like I have them in one picture. The one part has TOWER'S on it, but that didn't help me in trying to figure out what they are from. Any help??

Snow boot clasp, maybe.

Edit: It's not adjustable so maybe not.

Maybe, but I am near Myrtle Beach.

Also makes me think of boot buckles, from the 1960s.

Buckles for hip waders or chest waders is my guess.

Not from a boot. From a rain slicker. But it's the same kind of fastener.



This ad is from 1918 but the company was around for a century or more.
