The magnet is positioned between the first side and the recessed surface. A second fastener structure has a shape defined by an outer sidewall, wherein the shape of the outer sidewall substantially matches a shape defined by the captive wall, wherein second fastener structure is removably insertable into the pocket, and the first and second fastener structures are magnetically connectable. At least a third fastener structure is removably connectable to at least one of the male or the female friction-snap fastener.
