Default Question on Crumpler Million-Dollar Homes

Hi all..
Tis' a question on the Million-Dollar Home series save the Brazilian Dollar Home..

Wanna ask if anybody is experiencing this:
Bag sliding down slowly but surely..

I've only 2 small lenses and a SLR to date..
Have been lugging junk inside my 7 Million-Dollar Home as well..
Moisturiser, water bottle, Rubik's Cube, filters and stuff..

Just wanna know if it's just me or you do too..
Coz' if I'm to put in more equipment than junk,
I'd like it to be more secure and stay in place than be shifting around..

PS: Just bought the clip that you can find on all Crumpler's messenger bags except the photo bags.
Gonna' modify my strap..

Strap extending itself as you walk, thus, having to adjust it short every now and then..

Just to let you know that the clip is doing me fine.
You should try getting it.
It's retailing at $8.
Have to get the guys from Crumpler to get one from the warehouse for you though..

PS: Didn't modify my strap. Simply experimented how to arrange the clip to my liking.

Just realised that my bag ain't really overloaded.
The only adjustable plastic part on my strap was kinda' loose.
Apparently, it ain't holding up too well.

The clip that I was saying to get is called the Quick Flick Buckle;
and can only be found on Crumpler's messenger bags as well as the Brazillion Dollar Home.
I'm using it as a mobile grip instead of sewing it down..
It's serving me really well.
