That's the chin strap. It stops your chin from sagging when you sleep which in turn is supposed to stop your jaw sagging and placing pressure on your throat which the manufacturers say causes snoring.

I had an ex that "snored like a tractor", it used to drive me bonkers  I think that a lot of the sleep problems I have now lead back to that.

Re: Snoring!
I cant stand snoring.
On holiday this year I have to share a room with my cousin who snores. I cant get back to sleep and instead have to make a loud noise to wake them up so they realise or throw a pillow at them lol.
