Those don't look like eyelets to me, at least sewn with just thread. If they were there would be dimple-like tension indents in the fabric around each one and there isn't. They do look like disks of some sort (buttons would approximate). It also looks to me as though there is lacing cord through the centers.

Anyone know for sure if these are eyelets or buttons? Is there a cord running through the center holes or is there a cord wrapped around the "button"?
