I've been tying a simple shoelace knot for this, however I'm worried it will eventually become loose and come apart all together - especially when on the outside of the backpack. I am looking for a more appropriate hitch when attaching things to my backpack webbing
I'm looking for
Example things to strap onto (in order, monoculars, sunglasses, camera bag)
A combination of nylon webbing (i.e., a strap) and a plastic buckle that's both quick to cinch tight or to loosen. They're usually called Accessory Straps or Compression Straps. The strap comes in different widths so make sure it will thread through your backpack straps.
Even though they're inexpensive, you can easily make your own if you buy and cut the webbing and buckles separately. Sturdy sewing is needed to attach one end of webbing permanently to the buckle.
