A quart of water weighs approximately 2 lbs... doesn't seem like much until you start adding all kinds of additional gear. While designed as “minimalist” carry systems, when fully loaded with water, containers and other gear, the MCC and GCC can start to get heavy. The Padded Strap Wrap (PSW) works in conjunction with the shoulder strap provided with the MCC, GCC and SCOUT by wrapping around those straps, thereby increasing surface area while providing generous padding. The design of the PSW creates an inner pocket that can store a variety of small items such as cordage, compact fire kits or whatever your imagination can come up with. The PSW measures 21” in length and will accommodate straps up to 1.5” wide.
* See our video links near the bottom of this page for more info on the PSW plus additional ideas on how you can use yours.
** Please see the Home Page, the Shipping Tab, and the "Terms of Service" for info on lead times, shipping, etc...
*** Please see the "Custom Options" tab for additional images of colors, patterns and webbing.
**** All of our materials have been specifically chosen for longevity, durability and extreme quality. Additionally, I apply a rule of three: It must be either Mil-Spec, Made in the USA or Berry Compliant. As such, we use genuine Cordura Brand 500dn nylon; Velcro brand hook and loop; ITW Nexus plastics, DOT Fasteners and Mil-Spec webbing, binding tape and threads. All of these materials are designed to resist abrasion, wear and rot in order to provide a lifetime of service. Hand-Crafted, High-Quality, Heirloom gear as unique as your fingerprint. Period.

Must have for any shoulder strap from CLS.
Makes things with a strap so much more comfortable to carry. Clever design with Velcro makes it easy to attach while extra webbing allows you to keep functionality of a bare shoulder strap. Ordered my MCC with one of these and I have no regrets about spending extra. Can't imagine my MCC without it.

Padded Strap Wrap
I have one of these for each of the CLS carriers I have as well as one for my haversack made in a different shop. I find this product to be very effective at spreading out the weight of whatever strap it’s attached to. The velcro attachment and materials are crazy-durable. If you’re not a fan of the bare webbing, give this a try.

Appreciated comfort with gear expandability.
This was a no brainer for me to compliment my Ma Deuce/GCC. While the included strap for The Ma Deuce/GCC does it’s job with class and ease, adding the Padded Strap Wrap expands the ability of whatever strap you’re adding it to. Inside, I added 50’ of Dyneema cordage, a Suunto wrist compass (tucked underneath because I don’t like stuff dangling off of my bags), & 2 S2S 5 L Silnylon dry bags folded up inside. This opened up my Ma Deuce/GCC for some additional gear while making it more comfortable to carry for longer hikes. I’ve since purchased another PSW and a longer strap so I can transform my Ma Deuce/GCC from a sling to a comfy backpack for when I increase speed on my hikes and desire less movement from the sling configuration. As Mark says; “You do you”. Get it. Don’t get it, do it the hard way & wonder how much more comfortable your shoulder will be if you had a Padded Strap Wrap. ;)

PADDED STRAP WRAP
Perfect quality! Really relieves the shoulder while walking.

Padding
This strap allows for so much additional carry options. I have made connectors on other items that I typically carry so that I can use this strap on them. I have a basic survival kit in the strap and it is not noticeable to the general person but it allows me to have some minor gear with me always. AS with the other gear that I have purchased it is very durable, wears great and is very functional.

Padded Strap Wrap
I have one of these on my MCC and enjoyed it so much, I bought a second one for my Scout Bottle Carrier. A while ago I asked my grandson to strap on my "Mother". As he lifted it to his shoulder, I said, "Light, isn't it?" He replied jokingly, " . . . all evidence to the contrary" I responded, "Yeah, water's heavy!" If you have your gear loaded down as I do, you'd be well-advised to at least consider the Padded Strap Wrap. On my Scout Bottle Carrier, I added about 10 feet of my favorite Vietnam era paracord in an S-roll. Hoo-rah!

Strap wrap
I started out buying my first one of these for my Mother canteen carrier -- another great product available at Centerline. And after having the strap wrap only a short time, I realized I needed two more for the Y Harness ALSO a great product by Centerline. Ironically, I think I want at least one more to place on a gun sling. As you can see, it's easy to underestimate a simple thing like a padded strap wrap. But after seeing the quality and versatility of this product, there are a large number of applications where these wraps are a great addition for all outdoor activities.

Awesome padded strap wrap
The padded strap wrap helps make carry more comfortable. So does just staying lightweight. I am very good at assembly, fitting things back into stuff sacks and such. Mark is way better than me. I can barely get the normal strap into the padded one so that all the velcro is not showing much or at all. I tried putting 25 feet of better paracord in and it looked sloppy and combo was too stiff. Sure, there's plenty of velcro to keep it together. 550 pulled out awesome, but putting it back after each use, too much hassle for this cowboy. Still recommend.

Padded strap wrap
Don’t pass this up!! I’ve used the MCC without the padded strap wrap and it is awesome. It rides really nice on your shoulder, recently I loaded my mcc with quite a bit of gear and was definitely heavier. I figured it would be a great time to try the padded strap wrap. I was amazed that a few times I forgot I was wearing it. Mark nailed it as usual color scheme matched perfectly and he has some great tips and tricks for putting stuff inside the strap. Don’t cheat yourself get a sweet piece of gear from Mark at centerline systems. Thanks,Matt

Very comfy!
Great quality of product, very comfortable. I love that its reversible, and the pads are super comfy. I bought 2 of these for my Y-Harness, but when I'm not using that, I use one of the pads for my bed roll straps.
