Abstract: A pad for attachment to a strap, such as the shoulder strap of an article such as a brassiere, includes a fluid-filled envelope, slidable over the strap for eventual positioning over the shoulders of the wearer. A fabric cover may be placed over the envelope and attachment tabs may be secured to either the envelope or the cover to securely position the envelope relative to the strap during use. A modified form of the invention includes a second pair of fluid-filled envelopes affixed to the lower edges of the cups of a brassiere.
