How long is the chest strap? I'm kind of a big guy?

I am 6ft 210lb. I do not need to adjust this strap to full length. It stretches well too.

i am 42" around the chest and it has about another 6 " of slack...and it is elastic.

The transmitter w/ elastic strap, properly tensioned, is adjustable from 30"-65" (measure your chest across your sternum).

Not sure precisely as I gave this one toy kids but it is very elastic and adjustable. I was 40+" in chest and always wore it adjusted to its tightest

If I remember correctly, it is plenty big, but it all depends on what length is needed. I no longer use my strap as I purchased a strap that works with my iPhone. I was experiencing a lot of crashes with my watch & when I replaced the battery (by a jeweler), none of the features work. It only keeps time. Works fine until the battery is replaced. Sorry about that.

I bought this for my husband last Christmas. He's a pretty big guy too & works out daily. Here's the kicker ... it died by June (the watch part). I no longer recommend this product.

I haven't measured the strap but I'm 6ft 2in at 140 lbs and there is lots of strap for me and I don't have it fully extended so you should be ok.

The strap is adjustable. I'm 5'11" I can either adjust it to hit at my waist or even longer. Very nice product.

I'm not too sure about chest sizes but i do know that straps are pretty long for me and Im, I guess, an average size and there is plenty of adjustment room.

Let's try to do the math. I have the deluxe, cloth strap. My strap is 33.5" long and comfortably fits my chest (male, 5"10", 165 lb). This strap has 17" of elastic, that I can double to 34" by pulling it. Within the 17" elastic section, there is a 3-fold section that can be lengthened or contracted. This expandable section is 2.5" on my strap. If I contracted it to a minimum, my strap's overall length might increase by 2". If I expanded the section to a maximum, my strap might shrink by 4". So, we do the math. The strap could range from 33.5"-4"=29.5" to 33.5"+2"=35.5". The strap would be comfortable in a range of 29.5" to 35.5". Since I pull my strap about 3" to clasp it, the comfortable length when worn would be 29.5" to 38.5". At its longest, it would have a 19" elastic part that could expand to 38". That is, we could stretch the 19" elastic to the maximum (a double), making the range from 29.5" to 54.5" in length. The strap would be pure torture if it were stretched that taut. To be reasonably comfortable, I don't think you would want to exceed a range from 30" to 42" in length. This strap does not need to be torture tight. You do need to put water on a 2" cloth part and conducting gel on the 10" heart-rate part. The conducting gel will keep the strap stuck to your chest, which for a female is just below their sports bra, and for a male, on their breast bone. I buy my gel at my grocer's pharmacy as a special order, size of 5 liters (about 1.25 gallons). My grocer is #2 by grocery sales, behind only the big-box warehouse grocer. The 5L size is enough to last several years. :-) You want your strap to be comfortably in place at the beginning of your exercise, as adjusting your strap during your exercise can lead to very strange workout statistics. Final answer: 30" to 42" in length when worn comfortably during an exercise session.

The actual strap (colored knit-material) is about 20" long. About 24" if the ends are adjusted as short as they' 'll go. Could extend to probably 30". Great quality. I really like it. Not bulky, soft material.

Strap is about 50 inches but cinches up to 26 and fits over my shoulder. I really like this bag and use it every work day! I get lots of compliments on it! Hope this helps.

Hey, Devyn. Sorry for the delayed response! I don't think you'll have any problems with the fit. One of the great things about this pack is how much it can be adjusted. Not only can you tighten or loosen the chest and waist straps, but you can do the same for each of the shoulder straps. I just measured the pack, itself, and it comes in right around 15" lengthwise. If you want to get an idea of how it might sit, have a friend tape a piece of legal paper to the back of your shirt(preferably without the words "kick me" written on it). The pack will be marginally bigger both horizontally and vertically, but you'll at least get an idea of how much space it will take up while wearing it which might help you make a decision. Hope this helps; let me know how it works out for you!

I pulled the thingy out to the end and mesured 48" from the end of the purse to the strap on one end and 5" on the other end. I weigh about 150 and I wear it on my hip and I have the slider thing at the half way point. It's hard to say and I don't know if that's helpfull.

Extended full the soft strap is tight on my 50 inch chest but has lasted 2 sweaty workouts a week now for 3 or 4 months. It will dig under your pecs during a workout. I will buy another soon.

I'm 6'4" and 280lbs and at full length the strap sits my Canon 7D at my belt line. I'm typical northern European build (longer torso, relatively shorter legs).

The strap is 30 in. Long and is adjustable. Wearing it across your body depends on your height. Arlene

The strap is adjustable. I am a big guy and adjust it accordingly. A smaller person could adjust down. It's a nice unit. I would buy it again.

I don't have mine with me to test but I'd say about two feet? I wore mine while paintballing and it went from my back, around to my upper chest (and under a strap) with plenty to spare. I actually had to wind it through a MOLLE strap or two to take up the slack. (I'm 6' 2" so I suspect it's long enough for almost anyone)
