This is what I have done for the lid zipper on my Aeronaut. It’s called a cobra knot, and if that’s not a cool name for something I don’t know what is! As an added bonus you can untie it and you have a yard of 2 mm cord that you can use to:

make a clothesline
replace a shoelace
make an emergency belt
lash your bag to an alpaca, vehicle or sturdy friend
make a splint with sticks or a magazine
build an impromptu shelter
build an impromptu pillow-fort
make a tripwire to alert you to intruders
make a hair tie
spice up your love life
hold your seedy hotel door closed
snare rat living in seedy hotel
along with duct tape; repair just about anything
individual strands can be used for thread, floss, fishing line etc…
the list goes on and on….. Add any of your own below!

“I don’t own a home so I’m always changing the address on my luggage tag. For those who would like to print out a replicate of the paper slip that was included with their luggage tag, you can print on from this pdf I created. When you print, be sure the scale is set to 100% so the sizing is correct. Enjoy!”

“Just returned from a 3 week trip to Antarctica via South America. My Tri-Star handled it all. I was traveling solo and loved having my bag with me. It even passed Aerolineas Argentina’s strict carry-on limits when the airlines was operating – and when they went on strike – I was able to sleep on the (only option) 22 hour bus ride to Buenos Aires – knowing my bag was with me!”
