ZINZ Bag Shoulder Strap, Padded Adjustable Shoulder Strap Replacement

One of the best shoulder straps you will find for this price. I have purchased three to replace the typical flimsy straps that come with most soft bags (cross body/carry on/briefcase). The wide area that goes on your should makes carrying bags much more comfortable and they are totally adjustable to very short to long for taller people.

The media could not be loaded. This shoulder strap is easy to adjust, has metal components, and the design looks like it will last for years. The seatbelt like webbing for the strap is smooth, and it is continuous from end to end. The bag I use came with a strap that relied on the padded section for part of the integrity of the strap. As the material degraded the strap stretched and became uncomfortable. This strap has the webbing behind the padding thus supporting the padding so I won't have that issue again.On the cons, the padding does compress after a bit and when using it all day I notice that it really doesn't stay as comfortable. If you only carry a bag from the car into the office it should be great. Or even commuting on bus or train. If you have your bag with you all day like a brand rep at a convention, this might not have enough cushion.It's a nice strap that meets my needs and I use it for several hours a day.

Good quality works as expected - only complaint for 4 vs 5 stars would be can't adjust the padded strap position, only the black strap ends so I didn't get a perfect fit/feel for my bass case that I use these for (Gator bass gig bag) but they work since Gator doesn't make replacements for that bag

Ideally I would have liked if they had a chocolate brown color, but I got silver/gray so that I could use it with either light or dark colored bags. I really like that there are two adjustment thingies on both sides of the strap, so there's no issue with where the padding is sewn. I previously had bought from the same brand, a different strap that was not sewn-in, and it migrated a lot, so I really like this design way more because it is stable. This strap is ideal for heavy bags due to the thick padding. I use it for my expanding duffle bag, which can get heavy (airline carry-on size) when it is fully expanded, but also when it's lightweight and minimized to purse-size, it's great because it is not flimsy and doesn't migrate on my shoulder, so my bag is more stable.

I’m a mail carrier and love this strap for my satchel. Very comfortable on my shoulder. I recommend for anyone needing a shoulder strap!

This strap is way nicer than I thought it would be!The clips are much more heavier than I anticipated.The shoulder pad is nice and thick.I purchased this because the adjustable straps are uniform on each side.I'm definitely will be getting more for some of my other bags where the straps are the weak point.

I have a small bag that originally came with thinner, weaker straps and plastic attachment clips, but since I carry more weight in the bag than intended I wanted something that was sturdier and wouldn't dig into my shoulder. The material of the strap itself feels like a seatbelt, stronger than a typical bag strap. Serves my need well, was just what I was looking for. Considering ordering another to replace the strap that came with my water bottle holder.

2020 update - I purchased my 2nd Zinz strap just recently to replace the first one I purchased last year - the first one from last year lasted since then and recently broke. The weak link with these straps (including the original one that came with the bag which was different but also very robust) is the swivel joint that connects the clasp to the D ring that attaches to the bag loop. The clasp on the Zinz strap is very well made, but the swivel joint will eventually wear out as it grinds on the connecting ring (see photos of the old Zinz strap above) due to the weight of the bag (about 15-20 pounds including a 6 pound laptop) The clasp will eventually slip through the D ring hole and the bag will fall to the ground suddenly. The new one I just purchased is nice and solid so hopefully I will get another year. Lifespan can be increased by lightening the bag as much as possible. So, I am still giving it a 5 star rating - still a well made product...but all products have their limitations no matter how well made. I also like the wide choice of colors to match whatever application it is needed for.2019 review...High quality, well made - used as a replacement strap for a nice leather laptop bag I bought 2 years ago - after 2 years of rigorous daily use, the original shoulder strap (NOT this brand) got frayed and actually one of the metal buckles snapped - this new strap did the trick. Hopefully this new one lasts longer but I would buy another when the time comes.
