Best Shoulder Bag Strap, Optech?

[donchua]

Using the Optech shoulder bag strap now with my Lowerpro stealth Reporter 400AW.
Is the Optech best or got any other better strap for heavy bag?
Thanks.

i find eagle creek comfortable but a little too "slippery" for my liking. keeps sliding off my shoulder. now trying a strap from pacsafe with wire mesh woven inside the strap. got it from sports connection.

I am looking at the pacsafe strap.
Look good but work good?.

feels as comfortable as eagle creek. only grouse is the ring that connects to the bag. you need to choose the strap. found some rusty ones.

just tried..really wierd feel. doesnt seem less slippery cos only the side nearest my neck got contact. the other side floating in the air.

Just to share. I actually had this problem especially when I'm climbing cranes to do my shoots at the port. What I did, I used the strap from my crumpler bag, did come mdoification to it. And it works well for me.

my current solution for the eagle creek strap is to cross sling my bag. that way it wont slip :bsmilie:
