Ordered these as an alternative to my old-style Canon lens caps. I like the pinch-style caps and at with three in the set they only cost a few bucks each which isn't too bad at all, and if you only need one, hey, you've got spares!
They fit my 67mm lenses and stay on about as well as the Canon pinch caps do, which is to say they come off easily if you so much as bump the pinchy sides. Also like the Canon caps they're a bit 'orientation sensitive' in that certain orientations don't grip the filter thread as well as others and come off just a bit easier.
The caps come with three packaged microfiber cleaning cloths, three sets of lens cap keepers, and three long pieces of stretchy string. I haven't lost a lens cap yet but given how easily the pinch caps come off the lens cap keepers might be a really good idea!
As far as the string, well, who knows. Maybe someone will figure it out.

There is no such thing as too many lens caps. Youre bound to lose them at least once. K&F decided you may lose one at least 3 times. Me personally, I always swap the factory caps with ones i could stand to misplace.
3 in the pack and a lens cleaner as a bonus. So you could essentially keep a spare in each bag. If you can stand for the cap to hang from the side you can thread the string and attach the strap to your lens. I definitely recommend a pack of these for the lenses you use the most.

they go on the lens with no issues. It is nice to have three extras because there is always a risk of loosing caps and not having one while the camera is not being used. I don't use the tethers so it is even more important.
They are not a smooth working (the center pinch) as others but the function without issue.

Fit my canon lens great. Firm fit with spring. Stays in place better than the canon caps. Comes with anti loose strap and lens cleaner cloths.

I lost the end cap for my canon 70-200 lens and I was searching around for a solution to my problem. I came across these and they are perfect. It fit great and now my lens is protected again. It comes with some cleaning accessories and some strapping to attach the lens cap to your lens but I prefer to have it free from the lens so I didn’t use those parts. Would recommend this product!

The photos in the reviews are accurate, and show the basic lenscap. I ordered the odd 67mm size (not so common) but for the lens cap I lost at a jobsite. This replacement is a pinch type, so that is good, it holds as well as my Canon OEM lens cap, so I have no complaints. Comes with a leash lens cap keeper that I may use for something else and three small microfiber cloths, which go in the photo bag. All in all, these are competent lens cap replacements for a good price and for people like me who lose lens caps, good to. have multiples.

A nice little kit from K&F. Honestly, these aren't my favorite lens caps that I've handled, but they nonetheless seem plenty adequate and sturdy. I'm just a bit fickle about the plastic and injection molding quality, but these seem to work just as well as my other caps from other various brands.
The caps come with a pre-tied lanyard loop, and also adhesive buttons with elastic leashes for attaching the cap to your lenses. Personally, I'd rather just stick the cap in my pocket, but appreciate that these come with multiple retention options.
As well as the caps, these also come with three vacuum sealed microfiber cloths. Another nice to have bit of kit, that should serve as a durable and reliable tool, and with a convenient package to stuff them in various pockets or bags without worrying about dirtying them.

These 43mm caps fit both my fairly new camera lens and my very old enlarger lens. They snapped positively into place on both of my lenses, just like the original caps. The center-pinch feature is much better than the old-style edge-pinch, in my opinion.
I like the included microfiber cloths. For protection, they were vacuum sealed. I used one to clean up the enlarger lens. It was long overdue.
Also included were three “keeper” leashes that can be affixed to each cap via an adhesive pad. I’m not a fan of those, so I didn’t test that feature. For people that use them, though, they appear to be well-made and should serve to prevent loss of the attached cap.
This kit is a good value for those replacing multiple same-size lens caps.

I don't lose lens caps often but when I do it makes me mad. You've got to have them--lenses are expensive and there's no better way to protect them from damage on an ongoing basis. I've been getting them from the manufacturer of my camera. They're a lot more expensive than you'd think they'd be given their simplicity. This is the case with any quality camera/lens maker. I thought I'd give these a try since the last time I had to replace a lens I paid twice this amount for one cap. These work great--they don't have the logo of the aforementioned camera company on the front but otherwise they work and look just like the OEM. I've now got backup caps for my most used lenses and I'll be ordering some more! I don't use the anti-loss leashes because I find them awkward--personal preference--but at this price I don't worry about losing lens caps any more. They even include three vacuum packed microfiber clothes which I stash in all of my bags. Highly recommended!!
