Side strap size?

[Inklegg]

Trying to determine what size straps I need for my side under arms. Pathfinder's Lancer CRL says "around 1.75 inches". 501st level 2 says "2 inches". Can someone please clarify what size I need? "Around" could be anything close to 1.75". I am able to find the cream/off white in 1.5" but not 1.75" or 2".

 

Also, the bridge straps say white cotton. If I use off white pouches, side, and belt straps, do the bridge straps match or stay white?

 

Thanks

Hi Jeff. My side straps are 1.5", and shoulder bridges are 2" going by what my build currently has (I'm working on a lancer scout). Shoulder bridges should match if you are going to do off white if I remember correctly. Any lancers, correct me if I'm wrong, and go by the CRL here, it's updated more frequently.

I went with 1.5 cotton side straps per Chef (http://forum.bikerscout.net/index.php?showtopic=14953&hl=&fromsearch=1). Attach elastic to each side and you'll get some flex in your chest armor. I think the general rule is that you'll want your bridge straps to match but best let a Lancer weigh in on that one. I'm giving away 1.5 (white) and 1.75 webbing (off-white) if you need some (http://forum.bikerscout.net/index.php?showtopic=15065&hl=&fromsearch=1).

I have 1.5" currently on the cest/back under arm straps. I think it looks a little thin, would prefer the 1.75". PM coming your way, thanks

I like the 1.5" strapping for the chest and back. However I'm a bit taller and have to drop my chest and back I use 1.75" on the bridge. To me the 1.75" stuff in a bit big for the chest to back,but that's just me.

1.5 works just fine. Sorry we are going to clear up that mess soon
