Dissapointment 
The product definetely does what it claims. The strap is tough and can definetely hold a 5D and 70-200mm beast lens without problem. I will however return the item. For a product that is supposed to protect your investment - why would they have rings instead of a threaded strap for attaching to your camera? This will create damage and I simply will not install it. If you don't mind wear on the connectors and corners of your camera - then this is for you.
Not sure it's worth it
I was attracted by the write-up - strong, safe, and so on.
The strap is stiff and unwieldy. It doesn't fit well into my bags. And it's not particularly comfortable.
So if you live, work, or shoot in an area where you're afraid that either someone is going to rip or cut your camera off your neck/shoulder, or that you're somehow going to lose it, this is for you.
Great product... 
I mostly bought this set for the hand grip. Once I got the products, I put the neck/shoulder strap on right away. It is adjustable, but seems a bit bulky at first. I'm sure once it's used more it will become more flexible and I would get use to it. Then I tried putting the hand grip on along with the should grip and both can be put on together for my camera.
After a while I ended up taking the should strap off because I tend to carry a camera bag every where and just quickly grap the camera out of it when I want to use it. The shoulder strap is still nice, thick padded, and with a slight curve in the padded area to fit more naturally with the body. But so far the hand grip works great especially since it doesn't need the plate attached at the bottom of the camera blocking the batteries like other hand grips do. I also love the reflective strip which is the whole area that is gray. A nice addition for safety when you're taking outside photos.
One little problem is that the rings that attach either the shoulder grip or the hand grip to the camera can damage the area around where it connects to the camera, just a little bit of scratches. But that would probably happen with any strap. My camera is also black, I don't know if this damage would show if you have a silver camera. I use this on my Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi and it works great. I also have small hands and can still adjust the hand grip to fit me.
Overall, both items in set are great and heavy duty just as described.
Card board stiff 
Stiff and inflexible, abrasive and uncomfortable. Covered by a highly
reflective glass bead? material that makes you easy to see at low light.
Causes some flash flair if in the back ground of someone else's picture.
Best use would be as a dog leash, and not on an expensive camera.
Unforseen problem
I got my made toughstrap bundle with a hand strap for my Canon 30D last month, June. The product is really tough and no question about theft and safety of your camera. But there is one thing I want to call the attention of the manufacturer, the ring that comes with it. The strap uses a ring at the end to be able to attach it to the camera. The ring damaged my camera because it rubs at the corners of my camera which I noticed after a whole day visit to New York. I was disappointed and I removed it and use the original strap again. I hope the manufacturer would improve the attachment because you will surely get some complains form other buyers in the future.
