I have had the original Chestnut Money Maker for years - PADS NEXT LEVEL!

I have had the original Chestnut Money Maker for years, it's a tremendous piece of equipment. Form, function, and build quality are absolutely amazing! I recently spoke with the good folks at Hold Fast, and and they recommended these. I shoot 10 to 12 hour days and this is completely transformed how I feel after a long day. I couldn't more highly recommend! The color even though it has been countless years of wear and tear, match remarkably well and feel oh so good!

Feel soft

These padded shoulder supports take the weight off the straps, so the camera gear doesn't feel as heavy on your shoulders.
A great little addition to the system.

Shoulder Pads

I e added these to my Money Maker set up. The shoulder straps were no a particular problem but adding these pads made a huge difference in how the whole set up feels. The BIG test is coming up in two weeks when we go to Yellowstone!

Perfect Accessory

Best decision adding these to my moneymaker strap. Added that extra padding and comfort I was looking for. Color matched up perfectly as well. Thank you again holdfast.

HF Shoulder Pad

I picked up the black coloured ones for my Mando, and I LOVE THEM 🤙🏾

Padding

I would have liked the padding to be thicker. It’s very thin and the leather pad edges dig into my shoulders slightly.

I love it, but...

Let me start off by saying I LOVE this product- I've been a customer for over a decade. I love the shoulder pads, and on my moneymaker that has the little metal loops, it is great, but for this last moneymaker I purchased, I decided to omit the rings, and I guess because of that, the shoulder pads do not stay in place. I was at a wedding, and they had slid all the way to my back. More work then I wanted it to be! :) So now I know for next time- if I want the shoulder pads, I should keep the rings! :)

A Great Improvement

It’s a great product. Absolutely reduces the stress on your shoulders from a long wedding day. If you’ve never taken apart your harness, there is a bit of trial and error to get the pads on and reassemble it correctly. Slightly more bulk with adding pads and can make you more prone to sweating. Overall, excellent product.
Shipping however, was not so great. It took almost 2 weeks to be delivered and I had to email support more than once asking for updates.

The product itself is great quality, but the color doesn’t match my chestnut holdfast straps at all. It looks like a completely different shade.
Super disappointing that it stands out so much.

They definitely add some nice padding to my Holdfast straps! Matches the leather very nicely and makes me want to add a few more to my single strap and other bags!
