A clasp for attaching a component to a bag comprising a strap. The clasp includes a protrusion portion having a protrusion and a receiving portion having a first arm and a second arm. The first and second arms define a receiving cavity configured to receive the protrusion of the protrusion portion. In one embodiment, the receiving portion further includes a body to which the first arm and second arm are connected by a plurality of flexible connectors. In another embodiment, the first arm is connected to the second arm by a clip. The arms of the receiving portion may each comprise a flexible extension which resists opening of the cavity. Alternatively or in addition, the receiving portion may further comprise a spring assembly which resists opening of the cavity. The receiving portion may further include one or more C-shaped strap retainers for attaching to the strap of the bag.
