MatinReplacement Shoulder Pad Air Cushion Pad Straight for Shoulder Bags

The strap on my cross body purse was uncomfortable. With this piece wrapped around the purse strap at my shoulder I barely feel it. I didn’t realize it would work so well. I travel and this is working out great

I finally replaced the shoulder pad on a 50 year old American Tourister bag. The bag is still in great shape so why replace it. With this new strap pad it should last as long as me.

Just finished trip to Paris. Very comfortable

My carry strap was killing me! As any of you who read my reviews will know, I own (and carry around) waaaay too much camera gear! This convenience of having every conceivable piece of gear with me on a hike comes at a cost - to my back and shoulders! Most carry straps on gear are made with cheesy quality padding - that becomes painful on long hikes. In order to provide much more comfort to my shoulders (and sanity on my hikes), I regularly ‘upgrade’ the straps on my gear by adding a better-quality shoulder pad. This pad has done the trick. It installed easily, and does not slip and slide around on the strap. It is a generous size and has been comfortable to carry my gear.

Love it!!! Would buy again!

I purchased this for my new K&F sling bag. The strap did not have any padding so I went with this pad. It fit the strap nicely and is very comfortable when I wear the strap crossbody. I am very happy with my purchase.

The product is well made and does work to keep my purse from slipping. I wish it were not so heavy duty as it’s somewhat inflexible , better for something heavier than a purse.

I like to lug my groceries home in reusable bags with straps long enough to fit over a shoulder. But my shoulders are bony and heavy bags hurt! I've tried different kinds of wrap-around straps. They either weren't cushy enough or they tended to slip forward so they were doing me no good. Then I came across the Matin shoulder strap pad. The images show it being used for heavy cameras, but it has solved my comfort problem, and the under surface has exposed rubber that doesn't slip and slide. So far, the Velcro is holding up. But be aware that the pad is quite long, and most carry-bags have two straps that aren't very long at all. What I found works best is wrapping just one strap and placing the loose strap on top of that padded strap. Otherwise it's a struggle to fit things into the bag when both straps are wrapped, and a pain to pull the strong Velcro apart. I've bought 2 of these pads so far. I wish more carry-bags came with holes reinforced with large metal grommets so I could attach longer straps to what I want to carry.
