Sag Straps 2010/2011 Feeler Thread

Alright, I know NS doesn't let you advertise in threads, but I don't feel I'm doing it because I have nothing for sale currently. Anyway, I'm just trying to see how many people would be interested in buying a pair if they came out, and how willing people would be to pre-order a pair. I know a lot of people have sent me emails and messages if they'll be available this year, but I want to just see if everyone is still interested. So here's some basic info:

This the design we plan to have. Why white and black? It's cheaper for me, and ultimately cheaper for you.

Now I just have a few questions that it would be great if you guys could answer.
1. Would you want a really big size to sag or just a regular size?
2. Would you want a chest strap to keep them from falling off your shoulders at an additional cost (maybe 2-3$)
3. How much would you be willing to pay? Is 30$ too much for you?
4. Would you preorder this? (Note: I am NOT taking deposits, just need an estimate)
5. How long would you be willing to wait for them after pre-ordering?

Thanks guys I really appreciate your help, this really does help make a product you guys want!

It seems like a fairly sound product.

Straps in general beat the hell out of  belts when it comes to riding. I'd say to be competitive you'd need to price the straps around the same level as an average belt. Anywhere from $20 - $30 dollars.

As for preordering items, since it's a start up project on your end it's pretty reasonable to expect a deposit. Just be warned that people on NS generally get pretty antsy when it comes to shipping deadlines etc.

Bottom line, if I had good straps available for a decent price and they could get to me in a reasonably quick amount of time I would definitely use them over a belt.

1. Would you want a really big size to sag or just a regular size?

I would want a huge size because i'm really tall and I love me some sag.


2. Would you want a chest strap to keep them from falling off your shoulders at an additional cost (maybe 2-3$)

That would be amazing.


3. How much would you be willing to pay? Is 30$ too much for you?

30 is as high as i'd go.


4. Would you preorder this? (Note: I am NOT taking deposits, just need an estimate)

sure.


5. How long would you be willing to wait for them after pre-ordering?

I dunno, spring.

This isn't a start-up. It's a rebirth. Wallisch used sag straps for a little while I think.

Seems to me like he's starting from square one again. Different design etc.

Either way it doesn't really affect what I said.

We're looking at around 5-6 weeks after all the pre-orders end that they would be shipped out.

These things are the best... One of the original people to buy them and I love them. Perfect substitute for a belt and have held up strong all season long.
If anyone is looking for some suspenders or a new belt just hop on these!

Great product, one of the original owners and mine still work today.

1. Would you want a really big size to sag or just a regular size?
Regular size.... the point of these is to keep your pants from falling down all the way... if you want sag, just loosen them up

2. Would you want a chest strap to keep them from falling off your shoulders at an additional cost (maybe 2-3$)
Definitely, my biggest complaint with the old ones is that they often fall off my shoulders. A fix for this problem is NECESSARY. I'm not entirely sure how a chest strap would work or if it would be comfortable or if it would ultimately solve the problem, but I trust that you could design something to eliminate this while staying cool and comfy.

3. How much would you be willing to pay? Is 30$ too much for you?
30 is a little high for some suspenders, especially if that does not include shipping. I'd say aim for selling each product for ~$15-20 and then shipping could put the total to about $30.

4. Would you preorder this? (Note: I am NOT taking deposits, just need an estimate)
You're a small company, yes, pre-orders would be acceptable.

5. How long would you be willing to wait for them after pre-ordering?
If I did not have them by the new year I would be very upset.

Regular, I'm sure a regular size could be adjusted to allow some sag, because I don't want ubersag.

Chest strap would be lovely.

$30 shipped would probably be my max price I'm willing to pay.

I guess I would preorder.

I would want them by new years preferably.




The black and white design looks sick. Looking forward to what you do with this.

-yes
3. How much would you be willing to pay? Is 30$ too much for you?

4. Would you preorder this? (Note: I am NOT taking deposits, just need an estimate)
-yes
5. How long would you be willing to wait for them after pre-ordering?

1. Would you want a really big size to sag or just a regular size?

I think it should come in different sizes or just be adjustable since people may change their mind or like different things.

2. Would you want a chest strap to keep them from falling off your shoulders at an additional cost (maybe 2-3$)

Not really interesred in a chest strap but maybe..

3. How much would you be willing to pay? Is 30$ too much for you?

Yes $30 is too much for me. I'd say $15-$20 is what I'd be looking to spend.

4. Would you preorder this? (Note: I am NOT taking deposits, just need an estimate)

It depends on an arrival date, but yes I would if I knew they'd come soon

5. How long would you be willing to wait for them after pre-ordering?

Maybe 3-4 weeks

how do they attach to your pants? i want them to hold, but i don't want them to mess up my pants.

i guess a better question is to those who've had them in the past, whats your take on the clamp things i see in the picture?

both

2. Would you want a chest strap to keep them from falling off your shoulders at an additional cost (maybe 2-3$)

$15-20+shipping

4. Would you preorder this? (Note: I am NOT taking deposits, just need an estimate)

1. Big size. I'm 6' and would want to be able to sag my pants a little.
2. Chest strap: Could we get a removable one? Like on that you can take off then later that day put it back on?
3. $15-$20.
4. Yeah, I'd pre-order.
5. As long as it takes them to be made, get to you, and you ship out.

First, could you make it reverse so that black is the main color with white?
Click for larger image

1. Would you want a really big size to sag or just a regular size?
     Both, but I really want one that can sag mid thigh or so on a 6'1" tall kid but can adjust to fit normally.
2. Would you want a chest strap to keep them from falling off your shoulders at an additional cost (maybe 2-3$)
     Yes, I would, and I would pay more if it was high quality
3. How much would you be willing to pay? Is 30$ too much for you?
     I do not feel that $30.00 shipped would be too much, especially if they sag  alot and still allow ease of movement.
4. Would you preorder this? (Note: I am NOT taking deposits, just need an estimate)
     Yes
5. How long would you be willing to wait for them after pre-ordering?
     Hopefully they could get here before Christmas, that'd just make my day

both, make them big, but adjustable

2. Would you want a chest strap to keep them from falling off your shoulders at an additional cost (maybe 2-3$)
yes, but make it detachable, but i think you are implying that.

3. How much would you be willing to pay? Is 30$ too much for you?
30 with shipping

4. Would you preorder this? (=
Definitely, if there was a guarantee of getting them at some point.

5. How long would you be willing to wait for them after pre-ordering?
Hopefully by the end of this winter, but i dont really care when i get them.

5. How long would you be willing to wait for them after pre-ordering?

1) Mid range size, but room to make them smaller or larger for height adjustments
2) maybe not chest strap but a little zip pocket would be DOPE
3) With the pockets, 30
4)Yes
5)i would wait as logn as it was garunteed i would get them

1. Would you want a really big size to sag or just a regular size? 
Regular Size. My pants are big enough already.

2. Would you want a chest strap to keep them from falling off your shoulders at an additional cost (maybe 2-3$) 
Yes that would be a great feature. Mine have fallen off once or twice.

3. How much would you be willing to pay? Is 30$ too much for you?
 For something to keep my pants up? Nope. $30 with the chest strap would be good

4. Would you preorder this? (Note: I am NOT taking deposits, just need an estimate)
Yeah if I wanted the new design. Have them for the start of the season.

5. How long would you be willing to wait for them after pre-ordering?
Couple weeks. If its snowing already.

you should really try to get your hands on some Sweet Protection suspenders. They are hands down perfect! i'm 6'1, nd i can easily have my pants hanf way below my butt. Only downside is the price.

Those are really sick, I can't figure out if I can get any in the US. Do you know how long they measure? I found ones online that are up to 60" and other (cheaper) options that are 54" and I can't decide which one would be better. I am about 6'
