Anti-Pinch Apparel Closure

摘要

A buckle closure assembly having a male part and a female part that snap-fittingly cooperate with one another. The male part and the female part selectively interact with one another along an operating direction to connect and disconnect alternate portions of a strap system. One or both of the male part and the female part include an offset or a standoff that extends from the respective part in a crossing direction relative to the operating direction to maintain a spacing between the buckle assembly and adjacent anatomy and/or clothing.
