Trophyline Suspenders

Paired with the venatic saddle.

The first couple times testing the venatic saddle and walking out to a suitable tree, Id get that loaded diaper feeling as the saddle began to sag a bit. No bueno, so I figured some suspenders were in order.
These suspenders seem well made, and the bits of leather are a nice touch.
As for attachment, I played around some ideas for a while. The venatic saddle does not appear to have dedicated mounting points, so I got creative. The slotted buckles did not mesh well with the nylon nor rubber molle. I tried weaving the elastic through the molle loops and hooking the buckle back onto the elastic, but I was not satisfied. Ultimately I attached the rear strap by hooking into the Made In America tag. The front shoulder straps hooked into one each of the mounting straps for the accessory pouch straps on the left and right hips. The venatic accessory pouches use two nylon straps each that weave through the nylon molle of the saddle, so I hooked the suspender buckles onto those nylon straps.
So far, so good. In the future though, Im thinking that suspenders made of nylon with elastic strain relief will be more durable and allow for better load bearing.
