If you have both the updated version (with adjustable strap and denim exterior) and the older version which do you prefer best?

I only have what seems to be the older version. No adjustable strap but it fits well as a cross over for both me and my daughter (5'6"-5'10"). Denim could be sturdier but I actually love the softness or this one. Regarding the strap, could be long if you are shorter or if your little one is heavier than ours (6-7lb.) and pulls it down in which case an adjustable strap could come in handy. Hope this helps.

I only have the carrier with the adjustable strap. Being able to adjust the strap is important to me.

I only have the updated version and I really like being able to adjust the strap. It is very sturdy.

I have both and they both the Pro 7 and the Industrial versions and they both have the wide, comfort strap. The 2012 model had a thinner strap which is what you were seeing at some point -looks like Amazon updated the images. Both versions appear to be identical with the only difference being in the packaging/branding of "pro 7" and "industrial". Buy whichever one has a better price since they are virtually the same! Enjoy!

I'm not sure which one yours is but the case itself is made for the Updated version since it has an opening for the front camera. Hope this helped you.

I have the chevron design, looks like the same configuration. Mine has 2 open interior pockets and also a couple zipper compartments.

I've had both. For some reason the newer soft strap digs into my chest and chafes me, while the other did not. I've tried several adjustments to no avail. I'm going back to the older standard strap and monitor combo. I'm average weight and build at 5' 9" and 170 lbs.

I have both versions available. Sorry for the confusion on the description I will change it as soon as possible.

The version I purchased in March of 2015 is adjustable with the included white plastic buckle that came loose in the bag. Place the buckle convex side up on top the upper half of the 2-inch strap. Fold the strap and thread some of the folded strap into the under-side (concave side) and over the center of the buckle, out around the upper outer edge of the buckle (the edge you have near the metal grommet and cinch cord), and then down through the inside again. This allows you to shorten the length of the strap so the bag does not hit you low in the legs and impede walking.

Yes! As others have responded, the "nut" on the end of the mini replaces your original strap button. (that was one of my concerns as well.)

Soft strap is much better. I ran 5 years with the regular one and the new soft is way comfortable!

The shoulder straps do not remove on the one I have but I believe they have added that feature to the newer models!

I don't know about the old version. The new one I Purchased broke In two days. The removeable base latches broke and plastic cracked.

From what I can tell the new seat is plush and the new version has a faster speed setting. I would have no problem recommending the 2012 version if it is worth the savings to you.

I actually greatly prefer the regular strap. The soft strap has a much lower long-term reliability and requires more detailed cleaning, whereas the regular strap is secure and rinses off easily, and once you have it on you forget it is even there.

Its been awhile since i bought mine, but I remember that there were two that were very much alike. the only difference I could find is that one was a little more "tailored" with nicer lines on the handles and a nice scoop in the lid below the handle so your hand could fit into the handle better. A bit more refined, which is why I chose it. Look closely and you will see. Again, I am going by memory, and not by the model name.

There's a lot of discussion about the advantages of the old version in the Amazon user reviews of both versions. I bought the (more expensive) old version and am happy with it, but never tried the newer one for comparison.

Yes,an I think it's better than the original strap.Not as soft but I like like.

I have both and feel my new one is just as good. I'm pretty rough on my phone cases, and don't see any issues. The stitching looks great.
