I would also love to know if anyone has replaced magnetic snaps with regular pin snaps before, how expensive it is. I have no "leather guy" so to speak, so I don't have a clue how to find someone really good/trustworthy/reasonable ($). (And really, given the bolt detail on the Emile stuff, IDK if they could change it to a snap even if I wanted to spend a decent amount to have it done. IDK if the bolt is at all part of the snap or just a separate piece of hardware.)
