A strap retainer () for attaching a chinstrap () to a safety helmet (). The strap retainer () includes a clip () that has a first latch (A) that is movable between an engaged position and a retracted position. The first latch (A) is resiliently biased toward the engaged position. The strap retainer () further has a slider () that is displaceable between a lock setting and a release setting. The lock setting causes a movement of the first latch (A) toward the retracted position to be impeded, and the release setting causes the impeding to be suspended.
