This is a maternity strap set! I found it troublesome to switch them between work and personal bags, so I attached them to everything. As a side note, the strap I received from the city was the easiest to use (⊙_⊙) While I don't see any noticeable scratches or stains, please understand that this is a personal inspection and has been stored at home. I will wrap it in bubble wrap and ship it in an envelope or plastic bag. I would appreciate it if you could read my profile! Thank you very much (*´˘`*)
