Italian term

Passante con catarifrangente

Italian to English Other Textiles / Clothing / Fashion
This is from a text that is describing a padded jacket. The text says it has

Passante con catarifrangente applicato sul collo

I can't think what "passante" means in this context - a reflective loop doesn't really make sense to me.

Any ideas are appreciated.

Reflective tape

a "passante" is usually a tape or strip

On second thought, "passante" is probably a drawstring. The reflective tape is either on the outside of the drawstring channel (most likely) or on teh drawstring itself. You need to see a picture to be sure.
Peer comment(s):

neutral Marina Stubinski : Passante is neither tape nor drawstring; it is a (belt) loop - see the Ragazzini for example) so reflective loop is better

I suggested in my later comment that it is the drawstring channel - what do you think about that?
