Where can I buy strap pads for my backpack?

[Happyathome]

My backpack I ordered online came with thin straps. i'm worried they'll be too thin and uncomfortable for the whole week trip. Does anyone know where I can get any shoulder straps to attach to my bag?

TIA!!

A simple trick I've used on bags with uncomfortable straps is seatbelt pads.

In the auto section of most stores (I get mine at WalMart), you can find thick seatbelt pads, designed to make seatbelts more comfortable during long drives. They cost about $5-$7 each and come in a variety of styles and colors. They're about 12" long and designed to wrap simply around a 2" seatbelt, so they will fit around most backpack straps nicely.

Just be carefull about getting the type that look like fur; they hold heat and become swealtering quite quickly.

Thanks very much! I hadn't thought about those!!

You can also try the baby section at Target or Walmart. They often sell strap covers for use in strollers or car seats.

Thanks! I looked at the car ones, in the automotive dept. and they're too big for my bag. Off to the baby section next!
