In Reply to: Adjustment Straps on Wested posted by Graham on December 03, 1999 at 13:49:52:
: Hello all. I have a question about the adjustment straps on the Wested jackets. After adjusting mine to the desired length, I ended up with about 4-5 inches of dangling leather. Should I just let it hang as it is or readjust back to halfway mark so the leather has a bit of support to stay horizontal. My sleeves knock it as I walk and wanted to know if there was any workaround to this situation. Thank you.
Hi Graham,
Tom here... I used a little leather conditioner on my straps which softened them a little, then folded them over so fall pretty much straight down. You might try tucking them through the D-rings as well. I'd watch Raiders again to get some ideas...(yeah, like we need a reason to watch Raiders again)
