critical.

easily use it as a shoulder bag or a crossbody bag if the strap length is optimum. Lastly,
shortening the strap is also necessary to protect the bag from damage.
Steps To Shorten a Leather Strap
To shorten a strap, you must cut it properly and seal its edges before affixing it to
the bag again. You will require certain tools to cut the strap to the required length.
Starting from the measurement and marking processes, you must work precisely
to cut the extra length. Without proper attention to detail, you may cut ill-
patterned leather, worsening the situation.
Therefore, tool handling and care are necessary when working with leather straps.
Following the steps below, create the perfectly sized strap for your shoulder bag.
Measuring And Marking
Measurement is the most critical step in reducing the bag strap length. First,
you have to measure your height in centimeters or inches. After that, you
have to measure the drop length of the strap in the same units. Please note
that the drop length is measured from the shoulder to the point where the
strap is affixed to the bag.
The drop length excludes the height of the bag. Once you have measured
both lengths, you must decide where to want the bag in your body height so
that it will neither be too short nor too long. After estimating the required
length, mark the leather strap where you want to cut it. It is preferable to
double-check the measurement and marking process to avoid errors.
Straightening And Attaching the Strap
Once you have cut the leather strap, you have to trim the edges to get them
rounded. You can use a straightedge tool to cut the excessive leather. Using
this tool will straighten the leather strap for the bag and will make it perfect
for attachment.
Once you have rounded off the edges, you can attach the resized leather strap
to the bag. You will need two pieces of buckles to install them on the sides of
the bag. Proceeding forward, you have to punch holes on both ends of the
leather strap to affix it with the buckles.
Concluding Thoughts
Leather straps are the most widely used for different kinds of
bags. However, users often face the issue of the extensive
length of these leather straps that result in extreme discomfort
in handling the bag. Therefore, it is necessary to cut the leather
strap to a moderate length. Once you cut the extra length of the
strap, it will become extremely comfortable to handle the bag.
