Bought a large manhattan courier bag the pro one - only thing is it likes to move about
:evil: I've tightened the strap right up and it helps but still moves like an umtamed beast. So I was thinking of getting a stabilising strap for it. So a) can you buy them? b) would it help?
Thanks

Decent courier bags should come with one really? My ReLoad bag did and the works a dream. Could you not fashion one yourself?

my crumpler came with one, it'd be pretty hard to fashion one for a bag though...
what you want are two loops (one round strap and one round the closing fasteners) with a buckle inbetween0 -
A short bungee will work as a stop-gap. About £1.50 from a garage. And tie knots in it till it seems the right length.
(I did this with a canvas man-bag, I mean Courier bag from Gap. Worked a treat!)0 -
What about a getting a luggage strap. It would have a buckle and you could probably find one to match the colour of your bag. Should only be a couple of quid0

Bungee sounds like a good idea - where abouts do you hook it please?.

At the base of the straps there should (hopefully) be some plastic loops? Or you'll have to put them round the straps themselves... That luggage strap idea sounded a good plan too.
