Transplate harness question

[abitton]

Hello all,

Anyone have a suggestion for preventing the shoulder strap padding from sliding down the webbing? It seems to bunch up and makes it a bit harder to don the kit...

Thanks!!

Hi Abitton. There is a protective sleeve that surrounds the webbing that passes through the slots on the top of the backplate. There is also a patch of velcro on the back of each of the shoulder straps. This velcro patch will adhere to the protective sleeve and prevent the strap padding from sliding. Check your harness to make sure it is assembled correctly. When properly assembled, there should be no way the padding slides. If you have additional questions, you can feel free to telephone me. Thanks.

Edit: there is no velcro, but I'll try using belt slides...
