JayJays - Bergan Mods - Wider Straps. (Select MTP or DPM).
By far our top adaption, we have lost count of how many of these we have done. We have been told these are (without doubt) the comfiest straps out there.
We completely remove the old straps and replace them with our own purpose designed ones.
Our straps are curved, shaped, and tapered, one end is wider allowing a large area to spread the load, then tapering down to a thinner end stopping it digging into your ribs.
We use high density closed cell foam which retains its shape and form for longer periods under load-making it much longer lasting and durable.
Spacer fabric under the strap for even more padding and comfort.
The straps are sewn through, ensuring that they cannot ‘roll’ or create pressure points.

Top Tip:
A common mistake that soldiers make is to adjust the top adjustment straps before the bottom ones, this makes the straps ride high. Adjust the bottom straps first to where it feels comfortable then adjust the top straps to pull the bergan in. Once this is complete you can tape up the top straps as they should never have to be moved again.
