Klein Tools 58889 Padded Adjustable Shoulder Strap, 37 to 55-Inch, for Klein Tools Tool Tote and 5003 Series

The pad is correctly made, i.e. curved, and totally covered in high friction material. It will stay on your shoulder far longer than typical bag straps. The pad, being the main item in the strap stays as it is rathern than .... as with sheaper strap with a sliding shoulder wider pad bit, keeps sliding off or come askew. The other important design feature is the use of two adjustment bickles as as to allow the pad to stay where it is and the length of the strap be adjustd according to user desired. Cheap straps only has one adjustment buckle and invariable they end up at a position along the strap where it sits on your shoulder and digs in. Remember the sliding shoulder pad mentioned above ? Well it is useless because it can't slide under such an adjustment buckle, precisely where you want to have padding to prevent the buckle hurting you. So don't buy a laptop bag without buying this strap. These are the reasons why I am throwing away all the original laptop straps away and to replace with theis one. Yes, it cost the same as some of the laptop bags but they are otherwise useless.

The strap that came with my toolbag broke, I bought this as a replacement. Worked out very well, the pad is comfortable, strap is strong and reliable.

I wasn't expecting much for so few bucks and what a pleasant surprise. This strap has it going on: excellent materials, quality construction and handsome appearance Wish all my friends were this hot! I spend everyday walking blocks with both a hardshell guitar case and messenger bag strapped to my body, so a strong and comfy strap is very important to me. This Klein found a home on my guitar case but would be equally good on a messenger bag, camera bag or other shoulder luggage. I have owned and worn out a lot of straps from Swiss Army, Eagle Creek, Skooba and many others. Despite being 1/3 to 1/2 the price of those other straps the Klein is as good as the best of them. The hardware is heavy duty metal (matte chrome) and the hook gates are so tight they will never be accidentally released (unlike the loose as a goose Swiss Army strap hooks). The use of 2" nylon seatbelt webbing is common for straps but not in this price range. The pad is ultra grippy, soft and flexes around my shoulder, perfectly distributing a heavy load. I have never heard of Klein until I bought this strap but kudos to them for making such a high quality and reasonably priced product in the USA. Not sure why the other straps cost so much when they are made in China. But for only $12.95, I plan to buy another Klein strap or two.

Very durable i’m hvac tech and carrying your tool bag is a need and this one looks good quality for my tool bag and it’s very durable

It is a very good, solid shoulder strap that I rigged up to a quite heavy bag I have to lug around occasionally for work. The padded piece doesn't slip off the shoulder, so that's a bonus. Reason it got 3 stars for value for money is that I don't think it should be as pricey as it is, but so far, it has been a great product.

Super solid and very hardy compared to the stock strap on my Kuny bag that snapped suddenly, while I was up high and almost lost some tools. Anyways, would of been nice if the strap had pivot like on the stock bag, but is a very very minor thing.
