Is the sternum chest strap (and corresponding buckle) removable? I'm not a fan of the way it dangles when not in use.

it is not removable, unless you cute it off. i am not a fun of that either. the strap is very short, won't affect anything, so i just leave it there, does not feel anything wrong with it.

It is removable, but not a quick release. You wouldn't want to take it on and off on a daily basis.

No they are not removable. I am a very small person. I don't use the chest strap that often haven't noticed that it was a big bother.

It doesn't dangle. It lays flat. I love this backpack. It is a perfect size.

Is isn't detachable in the traditional sense, but you could pull it off completely without damaging the straps.

yes, it does come off. simply take the little ring off and it's off. the little brass fitting just fell inside. i took it apart in the middle and it fell out. i didn't like the strap either. great kane.

No it does not have a chest strap, not really needed, it's very comfortable and secure with out it. But to answer your question No it does not! Hope that helps

No chest strap. I love this bag. it looks as ggod as the day I bought it, 2 semesters ago! The padded shoulder straps are super comfortable.

Yes, the shoulder straps are removable and you can just use the waist strap!

It is not removable, but you could cut it off if you didn't like or need it. The waist strap came neatly folded and tied together, I just left like that and it doesn't seem to get in my way.

There's a chest buckle that just goes right in, but the two side pieces that click into the bottom buckle have to interlock with eachother before they go into the bottom...hope that helps!

the strap us easily removable and not that noticeable once removed.I think it could be universal; it neither looks masculine nor feminine. Happy Easter. I took a couple photos, I'll look to see if I can upload them for you.

No, its not removable but I ware only the shoulder straps and the waist strap is not a problem.

It is not a buckle. One end slides into the other end until it clicks. To undo, you have to squeeze each side of it. It's typical of many dog collars. If you do a search in amazon for "Sassy Dog Wear Adjustable Dog Collar", that one shows the fastener part really well. It's like that.

No it is not via the buckles but only thru belt strap. By the way, it is a horribly designed harness. Poor quality as it can get. Hurts my pug's neck/chest as it is sooo disproportionate. Don't think of buying it otherwise you will be hurting you pooches neck/shoulder. Stay away.

No. It's all velcro. I need to redo my rating on this thing. I do schutzhund, and my dog has worn this thing out twice. The lifting handles gave first, and the chest strap second on both of them. I have gone with a custom rig, that had alpine cobra buckles.

Yes. I don't have it with me. I'm sure it has waste buckles. I can't remember about the chest ones.

The strap that goes around the chest has a buckle on both ends. just have the "back" side pre-buckled and then buckle the front side after you put the shoulder pack on. the size does not matter.

It is not. There is a hook on the back of it you can fasten a strap to, but mine did not come with such a strap (so you could wear it with a strap over the shoulder around the waist if you had such a thing already).I just carry mine around in my bag, but the strap option could be appealing.

The strap is adjustable and can be shortened, but only by about half. I think you will still have a bit of 'dangle' going on.
