Spanish term or phrase: bolsillos frontales cerrados con corchete
Nos cuadramos firmes ante esta parka recta de estilo militar porque es más que eso: es estilosa y tiene un cuello de pelo suave de estampado animal de colores, y tres bolsillos frontales cerrados con corchete y textura efecto capitoné.

Este es solo uno de los variados sitios donde se encuentra la misma frase.
La duda está en "cerrados con corchete" ya que no soy un experto en moda femenina.
Me pregunto: Sugerencias son bienvenidas.
¿Cuál de las siguientes se aproxima más a la idea transmitida?
a)
We're squaring up to this straight military-style parka because it's more than that: it's stylish and has a soft fur collar with a colorful animal print, and three front patch pockets with a textured capitonné effect.
b)
We're squaring up to this straight military-style parka because it's more than that: it's stylish and has a soft fur collar with a colorful animal print, and three front snap-closure pockets with a textured capitonné effect.
c)
We're squaring up to this straight military-style parka because it's more than that: it's stylish and has a soft fur collar with a colorful animal print, and three front pockets with a hook-and-eye closure and a textured capitonné effect.

In the original text it doesn't mention the buttons, nor the fact that it's a patch pocket. Flap closures can be with velcro or buttons.

Front pockets closed with fasteners


Explanation:
'Corchetes' can be 'hook and eyes' but not sure what type applies here, so go with the generic ' fasteners' would be my advice!;

front pockets with snap buttons


Explanation:
Mi observación:
1) el original no menciona flaps
2) el "corchete" es un botón (v.g.: elemento de cierre)
