t top bag ripping

I have been putting my t tops in the storage bag and it is ripping where the straps are attached that hook to the rear of the inside. Am I doing something wrong?

It sounds like you're doing it right.If your bag is worn out we carry new ones.

Here's a link over to them.

I would like to know the best way to repair it. It needs to be reinforced somehow.

Re: t top bag ripping

The best way to repair it would be to sew some heavy-duty fabric inside the bag where its ripping and to sew the strap to that as well. You'll need a pretty heavy-duty sewing machine to punch through the webbing of the strap though.
