What is a "toggle"?

A toggle is a type of fastener typically consisting of a cylindrical or rectangular-shaped knob, often made of wood, bone, or plastic, and a loop of cord or rope. The loop is threaded through a hole in the knob and secured in place, creating a simple yet effective fastening mechanism. Toggles are commonly used on clothing such as jackets, coats, and bags, as well as in outdoor gear like tents and backpacks.
