One live comparison: a rectangular fob plate on a bag clip versus a lanyard. Park-bag zipper versus around-the-neck. The object is still a plate.
A fob plate clips to a zipper or a bag ring. It stays with the bag when you set the bag down. A lanyard hangs on a neck. It swings. Breakaway hardware is the neck job, not the bag job. The plate can ride either carry. The question is where you want the week to sit when you buy a drink.
Park bags fill and empty all day. A clip on a zipper is where you can see the plate without fishing a pocket. A cord around the neck is where you can show a pass. They are two carries. Do not buy both as filler. Measure the bag you already have, then pick the clip or the cord.
Rain on a hip pocket is why the plate leaves the pocket. If the zipper already has a ring, the fob is the next piece. If you already wear a cord for a pass, the breakaway is the next piece. A zipper pull is a third object. It helps you find the slider. It does not replace a neck breakaway.
Get this a bag fob if the zipper is the hang. Get this a breakaway lanyard if the neck is the hang.
Get this a zipper pull if the slider is hard to find with wet hands.
The longer lecture is Fob plate vs lanyard. Ring versus fob versus lanyard also lives under Guides. Everyday carry versus a souvenir plate is a different week. A luggage tag is a suitcase job, not a park-bag zipper. A split ring on house keys is a pocket job. Shop still sells the plate. This page only picks the hang.
Licensed character lanyards stay generic on this shop. The plate is ours. The carry is yours. If the bag already has a ring on the zipper, clip the plate there. If a pocket is already soaked, the plate does not go back in. Magnets belong on Magnet Company, not on this zipper.
