You can use the Absolute Shoulder Strap with the TOM BIHN bags listed below.

The Checkpoint Flyer, Aeronaut, Tri-Star, Western Flyer, Empire Builder, Zephyr, Horizontal Brain Cell, Vertical Brain Cell, Ristretto and Ristretto for Netbooks connect to the Absolute Strap via D-ring attachment points. When you order the Absolute Shoulder Strap with one of these bags or through this page, it will come with sliders and snaphooks necessary to clip it to the D-ring attachment points.

The Large Cafe, Imago, ID, Ego, or Super Ego use a version of the Absolute Shoulder Strap without sliders and metal snaphooks. When you order the Absolute Shoulder Strap with one of these bags, it will come threaded on to the bag without the above mentioned hardware.

Updates to the Absolute Shoulder Strap

We've made three changes to the Absolute Shoulder Strap that we think make the best shoulder strap out there even better.

Updates to the Absolute Shoulder Strap - exclusive to TOM BIHN - include:

Ergonomic curve helps the strap conform comfortably to your shoulder

Top quality nylon webbing (lasts/looks better longer than standard polypropylene)

The comfortable, durable neoprene pad with non-slip grip underside is now 1-1/2" longer

We continue to use the same double-plated metal Made-in-USA snaphooks.

The Absolute Shoulder Strap has a unique, patented internal control-stretch system that's a life saver when carrying a heavy bag. While we've always been impressed with the Absolute Shoulder Strap, it's our customers who made us realize exactly how great this shoulder strap is:

"The Absolute Strap is the world's best kept secret! I can't say enough good things about it and it is worth every penny!" - H.J.

"I added the Absolute Strap...your folks seriously need to show this thing to the Arthritis Foundation and/or AARP people. I can tell already it is going to make all the difference in carrying the bags the mile or so I will be walking ever day. Even when I go to the farmer's market I will use the strap on my tote bag I take. I tested it out around the block using just my 8.5lb in the bag and it really feels as there really is no strap there."
- R.W.

Combining a soft, durable neoprene pad with comfortable stretch backing to make bags feel 50% lighter and 100% more comfortable, it's the ideal shoulder strap for those who carry heavy loads or simply want the most comfortable strap available.

We go the extra mile and add heavy duty, all-metal snaphooks. Made in U.S.A. to our specifications, our snaphooks are double-plated with a matte black finish to keep them sharp looking for years.

The Absolute Strap can be attached via snaphooks to the Horizontal Brain Cell, Vertical Brain Cell, Aeronaut, Western Flyer, Tri-Star, Ristretto, Ristretto for Netbooks, Zephyr, or the Empire Builder. It will also work with most computer cases, briefcases or duffel bags with appropriate "D" rings or equivalent hardware.

Additionally, the Absolute Strap is offered as an upgrade from the Standard Shoulder Strap on the Large Cafe, Imago, ID, Ego, and Super Ego messenger bags.

Note: when selected as an upgrade to the above mentioned messenger bags, the attaching hardware (snaphooks and slides) are not required and are not included. For more information, take a look at the grey sidebar to the left.
