A shoulder strap may be one of a number of things:
A length of fabric or other flexible material (such as leather, vinyl, rubber), used to suspend an item, often of some weight, from the shoulder(s). The strap may be worn slung over one shoulder or across the body. In the interest of comfort, they often have some manner of padding near the middle, where the strap rests directly against the shoulder or neck. Such items include purses, guitars, rifles, etc. In the case of rifles and other such weaponry, the shoulder strap is usually referred to as a sling. Shoulder straps may also be used in pairs on such items as a backpack or a baby carrier; the straps are worn one over each shoulder, and the item so carried is centred on the back or chest.
A length of fabric — usually one of a pair — used to support clothing, especially women's clothing, such as a dress, camisole, apron or brassiere. Shoulder straps such as these are usually made of the same material as the garment, and may be quite flimsy, as they are normally not expected to support much weight.
A length of fabric on a shirt, blouse, or jacket, running along the length of the shoulder; it is usually stitched into the shoulder seam and fastened with a button, snap fastener, or hook fastener near the collar. They are usually found on military or military-style civilian uniforms (such as park rangers or Boy Scouts), and are used to attach epaulettes, brassards, lanyards, slip-ons, or other insignia to the uniform.

The present invention contemplates a shoulderstrap organizer which is intended for use to secure the shoulderstraps typically of a child's, infant's or adult's strapped garment in position so as to prevent their accidental or intentional displacement over a shoulder.
Since the shoulderstraps 14 and 16 are likely to be slightly "fuzzy" the placement of the strap portions 26, 28 and 24 in those locations helps to hold the shoulderstrap organizer 22 in position and prevents it from sliding toward the pants 12 where it would tend to be less effective.
The shoulderstrap organizer is disclosed in use on a child's overalls, it being understood that such illustration merely exemplifies the utility of the strap to organize a child's shoulderstraps and that the shoulderstrap organizer is not limited to this application.
