## Questions & Answers

**Q: How to attach to backpack?**
A: The 8TIMBER Stern Link attaches to backpacks with webbing on the shoulder straps via it's plastic tri glide adjusters. We'll do our best to post a video showing this shortly!

**Q: where is this made?**
A: The Stern Link is made in China

**Q: What is the maximum width a strap can be for the tri glide inserts?**
A: 1 inch webbing! Which we found was pretty standard for most backpack straps

**Q: Do you make a clip with a bigger webbing? This would be perfect for my son's backpack but his straps are 3 inches😔**
A: Thanks for reaching out! We currently only offer the stern link with a 1" triglide plastic piece on either end. We intend for users to fasten this plastic triglide onto 1" webbing directly [a feature commonly seen added onto adult backpack straps]

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product, great quality
*by V***C on March 15, 2025*

This chest strap for backpacks is a very good quality product, innovative and convenient. Differentiated from another articles in Amazon that looks cheap quality, this strap is great quality, nice looking and very practical.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality strap
*by V***S on September 8, 2024*

So far, so good. Been using this strap on my Tomtoc backpack for a little over a week now. The magnetic buckle is really nice. Super secure. Fastens securely into the ring loops on shoulder straps. Fits nicely too. I’m able to expand it to accommodate my wider frame too. I haven’t used it on a long trip or a flight yet (just a short weekend trip and day to day use) so I’m not sure how everything will hold up in that scenario. But, I imagine it will be fine given the durability of the parts and overall construction. Definitely worth shelling out a little more money (though, I think the price should be a little lower) instead of risking going with something less expensive and flimsier.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ You get what you pay for. Best sternum strap available!
*by J***N on June 3, 2024*

Yes, this sternum strap is expensive. In fact, it might cost a third or more of the price of the pack you're installing it on. However, if you're like me you might have some excellent higher end packs that either don't have a sternum strap or don't have a very good one. This product can transform those packs! The magnetic quick release function works like magic, and once you try it, it's hard to go back to any other buckle. This system is much more intuitive than any other magnetic latch I've tried, and it won't accidentally reconnect with the bag off body like others that also use magnets. I rotate through a lot of packs and I don't like reinstalling these, so I've now ordered 3 of these to keep on my packs in the rotation. Highly recommended!
