Abstract
An optimized cord clip configured to leverage the structural features of a user's clothing to more effectively secure an audio cord. Embodiment of the present disclosure include a coupling device that serves to securely connect the strap to an audio cord, the strap itself also being securely clasped onto another item. The coupling device prevents unnecessary cord slip by employing a snap-fitting feature that securely manages the audio cord. At the same time, the clasping mechanism provided by the unique configuration of the strap, pockets, and ferromagnetic metals enables the cord clip to resist rotational forces exerted on the cord clip when a user is engaged in a physical activity imposing such forces.
