How To Use Voile Straps

Welcome to the wonderful world of Voile Straps, the original polyurethane tension strap designed way back in 1984 to hold skis together in the backcountry. In the ensuing 41 years since Voile Strap’s debut, they have become the industry standard as an indispensable and reusable staple for any seasoned skiers’ kit:

“Think of it as a super-strong reusable zip tie. And just like a zip tie, you can daisy chain Voile Straps together to make longer lengths. We call the Voile Strap infinitely useful for a reason.”

Might sound a bit patronizing to those who have been using Voile Straps for decades but here is a quick tutorial on how to deploy these infinitely useful little straps:

1. Take your strap and wrap it around whatever youโ€™re going to bundle or strap down. Keep the logo facing outward.

2. Thread the tail through the buckle and tension the strap by pulling it back against the prong.

There is a perfectly good reason why these must-have devices are the universal go-to option for keeping your gear tidy and its because they simply work, providing the perfect the balance between elasticity and industrial strength. Theyโ€™re UV Resistant, immune to atmospheric heat and never freeze. If you ever need a quick gift for skier, get them a couple Voile Straps, can never have enough of these handy dandy little straps that have been saving the day since 1984:

“When an expedition goes awry, the Voile Strap becomes much more than simply useful: it becomes the most important tool in your kit.”
