Digital camera reviews of Domke 725-310 FA-031 U.S. Post Office Shoulder Pad
Digital camera Review: Domke Post Office Shoulder Pad
Summary: 5 Stars
This will be straight forwarded, we're not discussing a complex electronic gadget here, just a shoulder pad. Still, I do find it quite beneficial for the purpose intended, I'm glad I ordered it. My Domke camera bag, thanks to the "L" lenses, is quite heavy. I do find this pad excellent in preventing the shoulder strap from digging in when walking any distance at all. It's still quite new, so I can't comment on the longevity factor, but so far/so good.Digital camera Review: Domke shoulder pads

As I stated with the straps these shoulder pads worked great to add cushion to your shoulders but the domke bag is not the best to carry on hikes.
The pads really help with the straps because without them I don't think you could tolerate the bag for long.
Digital camera Review: Eases the burden of being a fully laden pack mule
Summary: 4 Stars
In many ways this shoulder pad is a microcosm of Domke's bags--tough, effective, and not exactly sexy. Like Domke's bags, there's nothing better out there, and alas like Domke's bags the question should be asked--why the heck isn't this included with the bags? Seriously, bags that easily eclipse $100, especially those approaching $200, should come with some type of shoulder pad beyond a mere canvas strap.
That issue aside, the strap does a good job of making the the task of carrying loads of heavy camera gear bearable. I've yet to encounter the shedding others have described, and I found the width perfect for the strap on my Domke 700-10D F-1X Little Bit Bigger Bag (Olive Drab). If you're buying this for another manufacturer's bag or other heavy load, do check out the other comments and the listed measurements.
Digital camera Review: Excellent pad for camera bags and Duluth Pack Portfolio Bags
Summary: 5 Stars
This pad is almost a necessity for a fully packed Domke F2 bag. The pad worked so well, that I bought another one for my Duluth Pack laptop portfolio bag.Digital camera Review: Get this!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
The only problem I have with this is that it did not come with my bag to begin with! :-) This is such a great pad, far better than I have seen any other piece of luggage.
It is thick, non-slip and really distributes the weight of the bag. My camera bad weighs in at a hefty 24 pounds. This this allows me to carry it around, with the strap over my neck and shoulder, comfortably all day long, even on hikes.
Well worth it!
