Style: Ultrasuede Shoulder Strap Wrap

Available Style options

Super soft: for the Small and Medium Cafe Bags.

Description

The Ultrasuede® Shoulder Strap Wrap is designed as an optional accessory for our Small and Medium Café Bags or any bag with a 1-1/2" webbing shoulder strap. Our two smaller sizes of Café Bag come with an unpadded strap. Some customers found this strap not cushy enough and they requested a softer, cushier shoulder strap pad. Our Ultrasuede® Shoulder Strap Wrap is a sophisticated response to this simple request. It's made of ultrasoft Ultrasuede® laminated to soft Ensolite foam. The Ultrasuede® Shoulder Strap Wrap wraps around the shoulder strap and attaches back on itself with hook and loop and snaps: it's easy to add it "after market," as they say. The Ensolite foam provides a tacky surface to keep the webbing from slipping so the pad stays where you put it (the foam is not exposed except to the strap webbing).

How to install the Ultrasuede® Shoulder Strap Wrap

 

Ensure the strap is 1-1/2" or 38 / 40 mm webbing — the Ultrasuede® Shoulder Strap Wrap (USSW) won't work on 2" straps. To install the USSW on your Café Bag or similar bag:

Slide the existing pad out of the way to one end of the strap or the other (if one exists). Simply wrap the USSW around the strap in the center of the length of the strap, fastening the hook and loop and the snaps at either end of the pad. Make sure the snaps end up on the top of the strap so the underside is free of anything that might not feel so good against your shoulder. The pad will mold to both your strap and your shoulder over time, but it should feel comfortable right away.

    Great Pad for the Price

    At $13 it's attractive, comfortable, and keeps a low profile. That said, after a year of hard daily use with the Pilot bag, its padding has declined significantly and some of the foam is flaking off. The pad's description recommends it for use with smaller cafe bags - and I imagine for that use it's great. If you're looking for a heavy-duty, work-horse pad, stick with the less-attractive Absolute Strap.

    Elevates Crossbody Carry

    The fabric feels great, looks really nice. It gives an upmarket touch to whichever bag it’s supporting. It stays in place very well. Comfortable padding. My favorite elements? The hook and loop fastener combined with two snaps customized with Tom Bihn branding. The hook and loop strip secures the wrap to the shoulder strap and the two snaps look amazing.

    Tom Bihn goodness in all the details

    The shoulder strap is for the medium cafe bag that I ordered some months earlier. I have been using the small cafe bag for the past six years and it has become a trusted traveling companion -- whether out an about on any given day, or to far flung destinations. The medium cafe bag is my other go-to carry my life and all the myriad details with a little more comfort and space. Tom Bihn makes doing life and living better, more efficient, consistent and stylish too. Style is always a good detail to embellish any endeavor when possible.

    Comfort!

    Haven’t actually used it yet, but I have an older Medium Cafe bag I plan to use this for. Easy on, easy off and more comfortable than the other shoulder strap piece.
