Basic Meaning Of Shoulder Strap

In modern clothing safety standards, shoulder straps are defined as "functional cords that connect the front and back of the upper part of a garment, fitting snugly and passing over the shoulders." According to safety requirements, the free end of the shoulder strap, measured from the point of attachment, should not exceed 14 centimeters.

Their history can be traced back to the ancient Greek "shoulder garment," a 18 x 6-foot rectangular strip of cloth woven from wool or linen, worn by the Greeks in the 6th century BC. Originally, the shoulder garment was the only garment worn by men, but later evolved into clothing for educated individuals or tutors during the Roman era.
