Anybody making the elastic with the snap for 69 shoulder straps. There was a guy on Ebay several years ago selling them.

Yep. I sent them to the guy who advertises on here. Unfortunately I can't remember his name but I believe he's in Oregon - one of those western states!) I sent the belts to him and he did an awesome job and was dirt cheap. Between the time I shipped them and got them back was about two weeks (from Canada). Honestly ... not worth the hassle of trying to do them yourself.

I remember that guy. But I haven't seen that E-bay listing in a very long time now.

I'm thinking it was Bill Edwards who did mine.

I found a perfect match (appearance wise) at the local fabric store. They lasted probably just as long as the originals did - about 6-7 years before starting to sag... Time to do it again.
