Additional Comments:  Binoculars are indispensable to many hunters, boaters, shooters, hikers, bird watchers, and even folks who attend sporting events.  That said, having a good pair of binoculars is only half of the equation.  In reality, many people leave them at home or back at camp simply because they can be inconvenient to take along.  Keeping them in a case that has to be attached to a belt or worn around the neck can wear a person out, and taking part in any physical activity while carrying a large pair of binoculars in this manner is simply out of the question.  The traditional neck strap that most binoculars come with share those inherent problems.  They just aren't conducive for use during any physical activity, and the added weight on a persons neck is uncomfortable, to say the least. 

 

Enter the Crooked Horn Outfitters Slide & Flex Bino-System.  Designed to be worn around the users shoulders, they naturally spread the weight out for much less user fatigue.  Through the use of heavy elastic straps, and by their design, the Bino-System naturally holds the binoculars against the users chest while they are not in use.  This means the binoculars are not bouncing around during hiking, hunting, or any other activity that requires one to be moderately active.  And while the binoculars are kept secure against the user's chest, they are still readily available for immediate use when the need arises.  The user simply picks up the binoculars and brings them to eye level as they slide on the elastic straps without a hitch.  When finished viewing through them, the binoculars naturally return to the against-the-chest position.    

 

In short, the Crooked Horn Outfitters Bino-System addresses an age-old problem for binocular users, and it does it very well.  It is my opinion that the Bino-System is a must have for anyone who relies on binoculars and requires quick, easy access to them at all times.
