A system for carrying or using a device includes the device and at least one attachment apparatus. The device may include at least one attachment element. The attachment apparatus may include a length of material and at least one attachment point arranged on an end of the length of material. The at least one attachment point may include at least one magnetic feature configured to attach and detach the device and the length of material. The material can include but is not limited to cloth, metallic (magnetic and non-magnetic), fibrous material, and so forth.

A pull-release closure apparatus and method. The apparatus comprises a separable fastener, comprising a male portion having a lug, a corresponding female portion having a hook detachably coupled to the lug, the hook further comprising a first substantially circular opening mounted on a peg, a second substantially circular opening, and a protrusion resting against a wall of the female portion. The apparatus comprises a cord coupled to the second substantially circular opening and extending outward from the separable fastener. The apparatus comprises a first garment attachment member comprising a first substantially rectangular opening, the first garment attachment member coupled to the male portion, and a second garment attachment member comprising a second substantially rectangular opening, the second garment attachment member coupled to the female portion.

A magnetic sealing closure, comprising: a. a first flexible strip, with a plurality of cavities adapted to incorporate a plurality of magnetic elements; b. a second flexible strip, with a plurality of cavities adapted to incorporate a plurality of magnetic elements; wherein said sealing closure comprises membranes connectable to said first strip, and a second membrane connectable to said second strip, such that said plurality of magnetic elements of said second strip are embedded within said plurality of cavities between said second strip and said second membrane; when said first and second strips and are brought together from the side of said first and second membranes, magnetic elements of said first and said second strips magnetically attract each other, such that a sealing is provided.

A tension memory system that provides a mechanism allowing a user to set an appropriate amount of tension in wearable equipment on an initial wear cycle and then hold that setting through multiple wear cycles. The tension memory system allows for faster, more repeatable fit to enhance wearer safety and comfort. The tension memory system may also include additional functional features, such as storage or an integrated holster. The system is low-profile and may help to extend the life of wearable equipment such as armor carriers, ballistic vests, and other safety equipment.

Various embodiments herein each include at least one of systems, methods, and software for value transfer between disparate systems. One such embodiment includes receiving a transfer request to transfer a value from a first account provider to an account maintained with a second account provider and including data identifying an individual or entity that initiated the transfer request. This method also includes identifying the second account provider based on data included in the transfer request and generating a request to transfer the value of the transfer request to the account in a format compatible with the second account provider. The method may then transmit the generated request to the second account provider.

A system and method of attachment for a tubular garment including a single piece of flat fabric, the fabric has a first side and a second side and at least one pair of magnets on each of the first side and the second side of the fabric. Each pair of magnets has a polarity arrangement to removably attract the first side of fabric and the second side of fabric.

A hook-and-eyelet retainer protects a brassiere hook-and-eyelet clasp from becoming detached in the laundry to prevent damage to the brassiere, other undergarments in the laundry and/or the laundry machine. A hook-and-eyelet retainer has a first and a second retainer portion that are coupled together by a hinge. The first and second retainer portions pivot about the hinge to receive a hook-and-eyelet clasp and wing band. The hook-and-eyelet retainer is then closed and a post on a first retainer portion extends through a closure aperture on a second retainer portion to secure the hook-and-eyelet retainer in a closed position. A plurality of teeth extends up from one or both of the retainer portions to grip onto the hook-and-eyelet clasp and/or the wing band. One or both of the planar retainer portions may be recessed to accommodate the thickness of the brassiere hook-and-eyelet clasp or clasp strap or hook-and-eyelet and wing band.

A garment arrangement includes a garment having an elongated garment portion provided with at least one garment connection portion, and an attachment means configured to be releasably connected to said garment connection portion. The attachment means is configured to be movable along the extension of said elongated garment portion. A method is also provided.
