how do you adjust the length of the straps

If you need to adjust where they sit on the shoulders you use the lever above the head and push down on it to move up or down. To adjust the tightness you pull the strap between the legs to make it tighter or there's a slit between the legs you put your finger in there and pull up on the metal clamp and pull straps to make them looser.

It's easy, there is an adjuster in the front underneath the fabric. Push the button release and lengthen or shorten.

There are adjustable straps, but I found this to be much smaller than I anticipated. I'm 165 lbs and this fits me fairly snug.

No. I actually had to search the Internet to find pictures of the straps in use. They are loops without any adjustment possibilities.

You can go to the Joby website and they have a great, easy to follow video on how to adjust and position the strap. I don't think your doing anything wrong. I have watched it several times just to make sure myself.

yes, the strap has a binder so when you loop it in on itself you effectively adjust its total length. not hard to do but it will probably take some trial and error to make it fit the way you want.

On mine, the straps are each about 7.5" long and they are elastic. They do stretch a bit. The end of each strap has a velcro attachment. Over time, it is likely that the straps will stretch as the elasticity wears out.

Sorry to be so long in answering your question. The length of the straps I bought are 12 inches from clasp to clasp. Hope that helps

I am not sure about that, I would imagine if I was the manufacturer that I would just increase the length on the strap rather than the back pad. This would have to be a question asked directly to the manufacturer, they may have that info on their website?

Not only do the straps adjust; but the belly band can be adjusted as well. I am 5'3" and my fiancée is 6"3; and he can adjust it to fit him as well as me using it. Love it!

I do not have this problem, but it may be helpful to consult customer service. The button in the front of the car seat helps to adjust the straps, if you haven't tried that already. Good luck!

The strap is 30" long at the SHORTEST. It is adjustable for a longer length

Bottom straps don't stretch--it's like a belt buckle--depends how much it's raised--if short it is possible to sew a extension pce on to lengthen--

I think the strap can extend to about 2 feet. If you need to go longer, perhaps you can buy 2 sets and join the extra straps together to get the length you need. Have a blessed Christmas season. Pete

Adjusting the height is very simple. There are 3 slots at the lower end of each strap. Numbered 1-3; 1 being for the shortest or lightest baby. The straps are held in place under the seat frame with a small bar that you lift to unsnap and turn to put the bar into the desired slot and turn back to snap into position. Should only take a couple minutes.

The strap is adjustable --- I am not sure how long it is, but it hasn't been a problem with length for me. I shorten and lengthen depending on my activity.

Hey Ivy, not sure what you mean by "those can't be adjusted." You adjust by pulling the strap pulling the strap further through the loop until its tight against your wrist. 5" may be a little too narrow because when you go smaller than about 7"s you have to pull the padded part through the loop which may be a bit more difficult. Good luck

Doug, my straps are held with rivets. I guess you could remove the rivets and reattach using screws and nuts how you wanted.
