Shoulder Straps

APSS-DH, NSS-DH, APSS-DCC, NSS-DCC

KATA has taken great care to select the shoulder strap that they think works best with each of the products in this catalogue. However, your individual preference may differ from the choices that they have made. Two of KATA'a patented straps can be purchased separately. The Advanced Padded Shoulder Strap (APSS-DH) and the Non Slip Shoulder Strap (NSS-DH) case shoulder straps come with double hooks (DH) which easily connect to any case.
