Abstract
A retaining system includes a receiver comprising: a holder with a first side and an opposite second side and an eccentric aperture extends from the first side to the second side of the holder; a column comprising a central axis, a first axial side, and a second opposite axial side; and a flange attached normal to the column at the second side, wherein the column and flange are engaged with the holder, wherein the flange has an outer shape that fits within the eccentric aperture, and the column passes within the eccentric aperture from the first side to the second side of the holder, wherein the flange and column are rotatable around the central axis, and the column resists rotating without some resilient deformation of either the column, the flange, or the holder. The retaining system may be used to hold straps, such as from goggles, next to the side of a helmet.
