chinstraps
Jaw-securing helmet bands
Chinstraps are straps that pass under the chin to secure headgear—helmets, hats, or bonnets: Fasten your chinstrap before riding.
Chinstrap penguins have a distinctive black line across the throat resembling such a strap.
In military slang, a chinstrap is someone barely hanging on, exhausted but still functioning: By mile twenty, I was a total chinstrap.
