Have any women used this strap and if so, is it better than the BlackRapid Women's strap? I'm an active shooter and need something comfortable.

I absolutely love this strap. My wife has used it and liked it as well. She has never used the BlackRapid Womens strap before. So I cannot make a comparison between the two.

I have been using it. I wouldn't say it's better, or worse, different strengths. Ideally, a combination of both would be available, or better yet a modification that can be added to the women's strap.

I find it excellent for working out. The adjustment strap hklds the device firmly in place. Sweat won't get into places it should not. It is so comfortable I forget I have it on..

I ride with mine and it is very comfortable. I do sometimes not fasten the chest strap because it can "ride" up and get a little irritating. Hope this helps.

I am a regular fit user and I find it very convinient. I don't think it is gone to be different for a plus size subject. Just like using a wide belt. Greate benefits during shooting. I like it a lot.

Never tried it, I always do the 4 o'clock, I'd say it's the MOST comfortable IWB I've ever worn! EXELENT QUALITY and detail on the leather work to cover all rivets with leather on the body side. I'd think it would be ok for the appendix carry, but would think it might be a bit long if you'd need to be sitting. Maybe look at the regular infidel. I also have one of their OWB paddles that is equally as comfortable and VERY low profile, and could be an option if you considered an OWB. Either way great stuff and I will be adding others to the collection

It works great. I have had no problems with this strap. It is comfortable and very secure!

Soft strap is much better. I ran 5 years with the regular one and the new soft is way comfortable!

IMHO, the soft straps are more comfortable but they have their drawbacks. With the soft strap, the sending unit needs to snap onto the strap. The ability to remove the sending unit is convenient for comfort and washing, but over time, the rubber seals on the snaps wear out. Once this happens, sweat can get on the snaps and cause the HR monitor to stop sending a signal to your ANT+ device. This is not a problem with the plastic strap as there are no snaps for sweat to penetrate.

see my review. I bought this one too---http://amzn.com/B00EYZJXDW and it's important w/ Poms. The strap is HORRIBLE. Be prepared to deal w/ that (pad it, replace it, whatever) but if your dog likes the feel of a sling (mine does)- this is a good summer sling. It does sit low. I am 5'8"- I adjusted it all the way tight and it sits at waist. I'm probably going to shorten it and pad it. I love the pink one but it's too heavy for summer.

Thanks so much! I was nervous thinking I had to purchase the strap separately. Will be ordering it soon...on Friday to be exact :)

Yes, that strap is a PAIN! I had to use a straight pin to help me pull it under the cross pin, and a good flashlight! That's the best advice I can give.

I would recommend black rapid strap or sun-sniper strap for similar result. I use sun-sniper more now.As for the strap, It is better to unhook the strap when using a tripod rather than attached. It can get in the way of the tripod.

Hi Jay, it's like the Canon strap, in configuration but with the facility to clip on and off the camera. The shoulder pad is very comfortable and the camera can be carried over the shoulder or across the chest. It's not like the Joby camera strap that you can secure in position or quick release for shooting. Hope this helps. BTW I'm looking at the Joby strap for myself especially when I use long zoom lenses, I like the fact I can secure at my back out of harms way.

Based on mine, the shoulder strap is pretty long. You could wear it low on your hip or thigh if you wanted. Of course, it's really meant to hang by your side and not on your back.

You have to be very careful when you use the Black Rapid RS-7 Camera Strap because it does have a tendency to bang into things. such as door ways and people. I found the best way to use the camera strap --- hold the camera when you're walking and let it hands down when you stationary.

I wouldn't say this strap is overkill. It's all about convenience and comfort. Even someone with a point-and-shoot could use this strap if they're going to be doing a lot of shooting in a day. It just depends on your preference. I didn't like having my camera hanging around my neck with the standard strap; over time my neck and shoulders would start to ache and I found myself fumbling around when trying to get my camera up and ready quickly. With this sling style strap, I literally just reach my right hand down and it grabs the camera in the same position I will be holding it when I bring it up to shoot. Up to you, but at this price point, it may be worth getting even if you only use it occasionally.

This is a late response to Diosdado but if it can help someone else...I am a female with small, bony 6" wrists. I ordered the Pro series in small and extra small. The small had a bit of room but couldn't close tighter because that was as far as it could go. There was also some excess strap sticking out which I knew would drive me insane while lifting. The extra small could close tighter (I know they say you don't want it tight but I like having the option) and I was able to make it looser as well. The main thing was no excess strap sticking out. Now, my husband tried the small on and while he didn't lift anything with the grips they seemed to fit him okay.
