The one thing that still bugs me about the F6 is the width of the strap. They
should have used the wider webbing. Loaded, it can dig into your shoulder a
bit, vs. many of the other bags which have the wider strap. I'd recommend a
Domke Post-office pad on the F6 (I have a couple and they've served me very
well over the years.)
