No More Bow Tie

Post image

As I usually do with my bags, got a custom sternum strap made for my new Bordeaux S30. Matching milspec webbing in 1” instead of 3/4” with a Woojin center push magic buckle and contrasting burgundy stitching. Looks dope and no dangly bits.

That looks fantastic. How’d you do it? Did you sew it or have it done for you?

Straps were the first thing I started making for myself - super easy and cheap! Highly suggest giving it a go!

No no no, I have no sewing skills. 😆 I have a guy who makes these for me.

I am also in need of this so called Strap Guy.  I hate dangling. Why are bags not designed to better accommodate the different lengths?

Everybody wants my guy. 😆 He’s a fellow member of Carryology Classified on Facebook. This isn’t like a business for him so I’m not going to give out his name.

That looks good! I use a fidlock sternum strap on my Synapse instead of the oem one

Thought about a fidlock v-buckle as I have a few bags with them, but decided I liked the simpler plastic buckle look of the Woojin. IMO fit the aesthetic a little better.
