I am thinking of getting a bag with thinner threaded straps as I find the wide standard ones a little wide for me . Has anyone any pictures or feedback please. Thanks

I know I have seen someone do this before, but I just can't remember who?

New petrol Love Me Midi with two zips and thinner, BRAIDED handles!!

I haven't tried it myself, but I think it looks very nice. Not sure if the handles would feel more stiff because it only has the middle thicker part?

Hi Rosie, I had a Petrol CM Mini with the thinner straps. The bag is with my sister so I can't take photos but I do find the thinner straps easier to carry. They are slightly stiffer, but not uncomfortable. I find them more comfortable than the regular threaded straps but not as comfortable as the flat WTM straps (my favorite in terms of comfort).
I also love the way they look - very classic.
