Embodiments of the invention are directed to adjustable closure devices. One embodiment has a strap, a connector attached to a strap end, a chafe mounted on the strap behind the connector, and a hinged handle on the chafe. The chafe has a two outer bars and a central bar, these bars defining strap through-paths. The strap end-region has path segments arranged, directionally from the strap's central region toward the strap end at the chafe, or, in embodiments that configure the strap as a pulley, at the connector. An adjustable length region of the strap spans between the chafe and the connector. An elevatable handle configuration allows a user to pull the chafe to which it is connected along the strap, away from connector. As the chafe moves along the strap, the strap can transition between a large circumference configuration and small circumference. Some embodiments have a strap friction-locking mechanism associated with the handle and the chafe.

A clip for securing an unbuckled belt loaded with accessory items includes a hollow sleeve having an open first end, an open second end, a rear surface, and a front surface. A channel extending from the first end to the second end is dimensioned and configured to firmly receive a garment belt. The second end includes a J-shaped hook member extending outwardly therefrom for gripping a trouser belt loop. Accordingly, a belt loaded with accessory items is passed through the channel and is buckled in a conventional fashion. The hook is then secured to a nearby belt loop such that when the belt is unbuckled, the clip prevents the belt from slipping through the pants loops and falling onto an underlying surface.

Embodiments of a strap assembly system for a golf bag are described herein. The strap assembly system can be converted between a single-strap configuration or a double-strap configuration. The strap assembly system comprises a first strap, a second strap, and a back puck. The back puck comprises first and second attachment openings for securing the first strap. The back puck further comprises first and second side openings that define a linear pathway and are configured to receive the second strap. The second strap can move freely along the linear pathway.
