When you're done using the straps, you can conveniently pack them into their own pocket. For maintenance, keep them away from sharp objects to avoid tearing the ultralight nylon. Since they have a silicone coating, you don't need to worry too much about normal wear and tear, but try not to expose them to extreme heat or chemicals. You can use these straps with any stuff sack you own to get more compression and make your traveling or packing easier.
