Bag straps get stiff?
I have a Timbuk2 backpack, and recently on international flights I have noticed that the nylon straps are stiff when I’m deplaning.
Within an hour or so they return to their normal pliable state.
Has anybody ever noticed this phenomenon? I can only assume it has something to do with the cabin pressure.

How do you make a strap less stiff?
Place the items that you plan to carry around with you regularly in the backpack. Don't fill the bag with excess items, as this could cause the straps to tear and put strain on your shoulders and back. Put the backpack on again and position the straps halfway between your shoulders and your neck.Backpack strap tightening and loosening tutorial
