Strap swap

One body. Eight straps.

Every strap ends in the same terracotta Drop Clip, so every strap fits every Drop and Droplet. Tap a strap to see it worn.

2 · Add a strap

Bag and strap go into your cart as two items, each at its own price. No bundle discount. If a strap is not made in your bag colour, the closest colour is used. Each strap page shows all its colours.

Clipping on and off

  1. Hold the Drop Clip between thumb and finger and press the gate inwards.
  2. Hook it through the fabric loop at the point of the bag and let the gate snap shut. Do the same with the second clip on the loop at the lower right.
  3. The clips swivel, so the strap lies flat however you wear the bag. To swap, press the gate open and lift the clip off the loop.

Finding the right length

  • Shoulder: the bag should sit just under your arm, with the point near the front of your shoulder. Most people use 55–75 cm.
  • Crossbody: the base should rest at your hip on the opposite side. Most people use 95–125 cm; over a winter coat you may need the Long Strap (up to 150 cm).
  • Chest: the bag should lie flat over your chest with the strap across your back. Most people use 40–65 cm, which is what the Chest Strap · Quick Clip is made for.

Load

Each bag page lists a recommended load. Please keep below it, and remember that the strap and clips carry everything in the bag. Check the clips are shut before you set off.
