I wouldn't use one of those on a bet. The torsional side loads on the tripod mount could produce all kinds of undesirable issues.

I have a Focus shoulder strap, they also make a 2 camera setup. I also have a wrist strap that I typically leave on the camera then use a small carabiner to attach that to the should strap. The gives me peace of mind if the mount screwed into the tripod threads lets loose or the swivel on the strap breaks. The wrist strap attached to the should strap keeps it from hitting the ground
I also prefer the plate with the hole in one end vs the screw loop which makes the camera hand up-side down. The plate (I feel) gives more surface on the bottom of the body while the camera hangs sideways and easy to grab.

You could use the strap for one camera & a chest harness for the other. That way, the camera won't tend to bounce into each other or drive you nuts bouncing off of both hips. Would allow very quick access to either camera. Here's just one example: https://www.amazon.com/USA-Harness-Neoprene-Pattern-Accessory/dp/B079J85VC8/ref=sr_1_37_sspa?crid=3LDM649CQ8BE1&keywords=chest+mount+camera+harness&qid=1561225211&s=gateway&sprefix=chest+mount+camera+har%2Caps%2C164&sr=8-37-spons&psc=1&smid=A1SPPM51R7STTE

Or just use a 2 cameras vest, what I do.

Connect your Black Rapid hook to a RRS or Kirk 1inch clamp. The clamp attaches to the camera body plate and is easy to remove. You can also attach the strap/clamp to another camera quickly or put the camera on a tripod. A few more $ but safer and faster!

Absolutely check out Cotton Carrier. I use the vest style with side holster to carry 2 bodies with lenses while hiking. Very secure mounting. No swinging. Fast access. Keeps hands free.

During a two week shoot in Israel and Jordan, I used a sling with the attachment to the camera thread and it worked better than I had hoped. The around the neck camera strap is now sitting in a drawer.

If it worked, why is it in a drawer?

Don't need the OEM camera strap ... sling strap in use from now on.
