Thank you for reaching out regarding the UST See-Me 1.0 LED light. The strap is used as a hook and loop closure (you press the two sides together) that is meant to be attached to the webbing strap or other attachment points on the personal floatation device, life jacket, or immersion suit. If not used for water, that same strap can used on attachment points of whatever it is being secured to. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact us at USTcustomersupport@ustbrands.com. Thanks again for your question!
