this has caused me frustration for over half a year before I realised I could get help here…

how do you even use this luggage strap??

I bought it when my usual strap broke, but I could never figure out how to use it and it didn’t come with instructions. I lost the packaging but it said something like 3 way luggage strap or something…

anyone can help?
