    Good day all,

    I have had my ambassador bag tag for a few years and with travel and such, the leather strap looked like it was on it’s last legs, so rather than risk it, I was wondering if anybody had any recommendations. I guess a zip tie would work, but was hoping there was something a little better.

    Thanks all!

    The second benefit of a zip tie, along with a strap like the leather makes it a little harder to remove the tag.

    There are no limits to luggage tags that you could just pull the strap and use it for the Ambassador tag. Those are designed to withstand gorilla bag handlers so one should provide years of service.

    The Ambassador tag aesthetically speaking, is better with the leather strap. One idea to consider since from your description, the strap is still "functional," you can reinforce the strap with one of the wired loops that you get from a TPI bag tag or the 2026 TT bag tags. In the event the original strap fails, you will have the other wired loop to keep it attached until you're able to replace it with a new leather tag strap.

    I actually converted mine to a zip tie so I could adjust the length. Holding string ever since.

    Or just trade the strap out with about any other bag tag. I have some with fake and some with real leather. I would only use the real leather ones as they are less likely to break.

    Amazon has replacement leather ones, if the link doesn't show, just search "replacement leather luggage tag strap"

    Go to Wally World (aka Walmart) and buy a luggage bag tag. Look for one that has a nice strong strap. Bet you can find exactly what will work and will not be expensive. Bag handlers are the worst. Am dealing with Celebrity cruise lines now. The handlers ripped the wheels out of my carry on transporting it from the ship to debark. Could not even find the wheels somewhere in Amsterdam. What a mess. We got our bag tags at Wally World. They made it. But not the wheels.

    A little late to the discussion, but with all the horror stories of folks having their TT tags taken right off their bags, I was looking for something that would make it harder for anyone to take it, if they got it, they really had to work for it. So I got some wire cable key rings on Amazon in different colors, which has the screw-on connector and can be tightened to a point where it would be near impossible to remove quickly. (I used a red one purely for aesthetics... )

    A loop of 550 paracord work and will last.

    I use D-rings or as some call them, carboners. I have them in various thicknesses to correspond to the various tag openings. Lowe's, Home Depot or Ace Hardware are your best bets.

    The only negative about carabiners is that while they are easy-on, unfortuneately that means they are easy-off...

    I use zip ties, works great and easy to replace.
