It's looks free to flap in the wind and does not look buckled and tidy like the straps in the above post. I'll just live with it being in one position until I get new ones with a buckle that works better (like on some toshis).

My buckles are not the same as those above ^ .
Well, it's form or function on this one. I agree, it looks neater tucked, but this is the only method I know of that allows you to adjust your straps on-the-fly. It looks wrong but it works right. Take it or leave it.
