Pack questions
What do you all do to stop your straps that adjust things from slipping?

Do you use any kind of pads on the shoulder straps? if so, where do you get them?

Thanks.

Wrap the ends with electrical tape, but leave a few inches for adjustment and tensioning.....put a little more than you need so you can use electrical tape for other uses, such as on your barrel tip, etc. etc.

The shoulder strap should come padded, if you get the barneys pack frame it comes with the high quality memory foam and is very comfortable. ...hope this helps.

You may find felt pads to thread through webbing straps. I got some from an Aussie disposals store years ago.

Unscented Candle wax! Rub it on both sides of the strap. It makes the strap a bit tacky and reduces slippage. Works for me.
