This item is adjustable.  Unfortunately, we do not have a picture of the front of the unit.  Below is a description of how the unit fits and adjusts:

• The padded straps that start at the rear top of the shoulder go up and around the shoulder, under the armpit.
• The non-padded section then starts and goes across the back (criss-crossing with the other shoulder's strap) and around the ribs.
• The two straps meet in the front and have an adjustable front buckle.

I'm looking at sutures for emergency situations - stuck in deep wilderness without a chance for rescue for days. Which suture would you recommend for stitching up a wound like a laceration? Where do I find the suture needles on your site?

Answer

Thank you for your patience. Any suture with a cutting needle that is non-absorbable material like nylon (polypropylene and monomids) so the suture does not break down by natural elements like extreme heat and moisture.

The following sutures below would be able to adapt to that type of enviroment:

 Nonabsorbable Nylon Sutures for NP-3 Precision Point Needle

Nonabsorbable Mono Poly Sutures for NP-3 Precision Point Needle
