This is on the chest of a pair of waders I just inherited. Anyone know what it’s for? I get you could put some hemostats in the smaller side opening, but what is the intent for the tab with the four holes?

Fishing accessories/ locking pliers attach to it. Instead of going through the actual garment and putting a hole in it.

I hang flies on it when I’m tying new stuff on. Not sure if that’s the intended use though

The holes could be for attaching a retractable lanyard for pliers,hemostats, line nipper, etc. ? I personally wouldn’t use it for anything since I use a bag or vest with my gear in it.
