It'south been vi months and many messages and all I go back is "out of stock" and "We do not take an estimated appointment of availability at this fourth dimension".  Very frustrated and I've now asked for a replacement haversack because this one is unusable as the straps but fall off our shoulders. Nosotros've only owned the pack for ix months and used it maybe 5 times. Any suggestions from this group? 0 0

For now, use a shoelace. I've used a shoelace for years on my backpack and it works fine. Certain a sternum strap would be nice, but I never remember to become that extra pace. And this suggestion doesn't help your warranty issues. -------------- " The answer to this is probably both yes and no.� Information technology depends on a lot of things."  neek - NWH Director of Sound Decisions 0 -------------- " The respond to this is probably both yes and no.� It depends on a lot of things."  neek - NWH Director of Audio Decisions 0

But they directed me to Samsonite (who owns Gregory Mountain Products) and I was able to buy a smashing replacement 1 over the telephone. It was kind of foreign considering I think all they asked for was my name and I can't recall if they even billed me. I liked the strap so well I bought another one for my Salomon Daypack a year afterwards. They a scrap difficult to attach to the cording merely once installed they worked better than the original. I looked information technology up and the last i I bought was in July of 2022. I accept a photo from somewhere with the post-obit information on information technology: 1042792 - STRN STR S11 W SLIDRS 20MM BLK I hope that helps. I had a hard time finding one that would attache as designed. 0 0

That'south certainly the case at the MSR repair shop in Seattle.  I wanted to go down in that location, but the shop is closed to walk-ins, and has significantly reduced their service. Take you tried phoning them as well, gpccan? I'm non familiar with Gregory packs; mine are all of a more than traditional (ie, "older") style.  I checked out their backpacking line on the website and information technology almost looks as though the sternum strap is critical to keeping the straps from slipping down your shoulders.  I'd consider that a design flaw.  My packs accept them, but depending on circumstances, I don't have to apply them all the time. -------------- "There are yahoos out there.  It�s why we can�t have prissy things."  - Tom Mahood 0 -------------- "There are yahoos out in that location.  It�s why we can�t have nice things."  - Tom Mahood 0

A quick look at Amazon shows: Thermarest Camping and backpacking and accompaniment straps Wisdompro backpack chest strap BTNOW DIY rolls of webbing plus side-release buckles Many choices. These things are inexpensive and are actually useful for affixing items to a frame. I throw them in, along with some lengths of rope, on well-nigh any trip longer than a couple of days. They don't slide down when used as a sternum strap, so they don't need to exist attached to the harness. In my feel. 0 0
