A strap and connector assembly, comprising:

• a strap;
• and
• at least one swivel connector, comprising:
• a swivel hook having a hook section and a hook body with a latch, the latch being pivotably attached to the hook section;
• an axle extending from the swivel hook and including a flange spaced from the swivel hook;
• a body rotatably connected to the swivel hook by the axle, the body comprising:
• a first loop including a first window with a first entrance and a first exit;
• a second loop including a second window with a second entrance and a second exit;
• and
• a crossmember separating the first window and the second window, wherein the crossmember forms a first portion of the first loop and a second portion of the second loop,
• wherein the first window and the second window are operable to receive the strap and maintain an alignment between the strap and a longitudinal axis of the swivel connector.

A swivel connector, comprising:

• a body with a first loop and a second loop, the first loop connected to the second loop by a crossmember that is generally linear, the first loop having a first window and the second loop having a second window separated from the first window by the crossmember, wherein an end of the second loop is approximately parallel to the crossmember, wherein the crossmember forms a first portion of the first loop and a second portion of the second loop, and wherein the first loop is substantially coplanar with the second loop;
• and
• a latching device coupled to the second loop,
• wherein the first window and the second window are operable to receive a strap and maintain an alignment between the strap and a longitudinal axis defined by the latching device, wherein the strap at least partially wraps around the crossmember when inserted into the first loop and the second loop, wherein both ends of the strap extend in the same direction after the strap at least partially wraps around the crossmember.
