To tell the truth, I didn’t need one at all, but got seduced by the lovely-looking “coyote” color they came up with recently —how vain can we be? <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite11" alt=":rolleyes:" title="Roll eyes    :rolleyes:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":rolleyes:" />Anyway, I first bought a Slide model, which is wider than my usual Slide Lites, just before Christmas, and so I took it with me to the UK, even though I knew almost immediately that I didn’t like the semi-rigid section it has that’s supposed to go around your neck or over your shoulder. It is not supple enough and felt very strange and not comfortable, in my opinion. So, as soon as we returned home, it put it up for sale on eBay and ordered a Slide Lite in the same color. It arrived yesterday and I’m in love with it. Did I say vain? <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite21" alt=":sneaky:" title="Sneaky    :sneaky:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":sneaky:" />Oh, and I also upgraded my phone. It was about time, I still used an iPhone SE from 2016 which still worked OK and I liked its small size. I don’t want to carry one of those enormous devices that don’t fit nicely in pockets and so I looked for the smallest iPhone in existence, and I found the 13 Mini was the smallest (still a bit larger than the SE), so I got one secondhand in pristine condition. This has nothing to do with photography but I mention it here because I used it to take the photo of the Slide shoulder strap below for eBay purposes!I will take a photo of it one of these days and put it up in the Tabletop section of the forum.The Slide strap, you can see the semi-rigid part lying very flat on the table:[ATTACH=full]414313[/ATTACH]... and the Slide Lite that replaced it (corporate picture from Peak):[ATTACH=full]414314[/ATTACH]My photo above is much more accurate in terms of color of the material!  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" /></blockquote>
