When I equip a skin from a skin pack that I’ve upload to minecraft from an app or a website it unequips the skin and changes it to one from the minecart character creator.
Steps to Reproduce:
Download and import
Equip the first skin in the skin pack
Exit the classic skins menu
Observed Results:
The skin reverts to the previously equipped skin.
Expected Results:
The skin should remain equipped.
Video:
Cause:
This is caused by the skin's localization name in skins.json consisting only of numbers. To workaround the issue, open skins.json in your skin pack, locate the affected skin(s), and add a letter to the localization name. This should allow you to equip the skin.

I’m not sure how to do that, but I’ve uploaded a few different skin packs and they all don’t seem to work. They’re all from an app called Skinseed, if that helps.
I have noticed that it only is happening on my Windows 10 version. Each version is paid for and for windows I have un-installed and re-installed it a few times with no luck
The "Equip" button no longer showing for custom skin packs is a different issue that is being tracked at MCPE-152216.
I too am having this issue. My skins won’t save or they will turn into a Steve or an Alex after pressing Equip. I never had the Equip button ever disappear though. This is happening on the Xbox One S also.
Hi) Is this still an issue in version 26.32 and later?
