Abstract

In one embodiment of the invention, a piggyback carrying system is disclosed including a closable circular webbed harness and a plurality of fasteners. The closable circular webbed harness can selectively secure an article to a carrying device. The closable circular webbed harness includes a web matrix of straps with couplers that couple together to form closed loops that are joined together and spaced apart around the article. The plurality of fasteners couple the harness to the carrying device. The size of the closed loops are adjustable to adapt to the size of the article, such as may be the case with different articles of clothing. Advertising or accessories, such as one or more collectable pins, may be coupled to the harness.
