I bought this vintage Swedish rucksack with leather straps and can't seem to figure out the proper strap configuration. The way I have it done in these pictures is the most logical BUT the pieces that run down the front of your chest is now the back side of the leather (not the smooth prettier side). There doesn't seem to be any way of turning it over because the bottom attching points (of the small stips) are permanently riveted to the metal frame and I can't see how the larger strap could attach any other way. Any help would be much appreciated! TIA.
