Messenger Bag Sway-Issues

I got a medium sized Timbuk2 a few weeks ago and I love it but it swings to the left sometimes. It never swings to the right (so the anti-swing strap works perfectly) but it frequently swings to the left. Any advice?

Which shoulder is it over and how tight do you have the main strap?

it should be quite high up near your neck usually and the strap to be tight enough to stop it moving that much without the help of the anti-strap.

i have to says thought that timbuk2 bag tend to be a bit shit to be honest, I only got one cause it was cheap.

dress to the other side!

do the straps up tighter

It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing.

i use a ruck sack but they make ur back really sweaty...and you cant swing them round in the same way as courier bags when you wanna get something out without taking the bag off.
just tighten the straps mate!
