The present invention relates to air bag tethers formed from multiple bias-cut tether segments. Groups of tether segments are attached to the front and rear air bag panels and are then connected to one another to form a functional tether system. This multiple-segment construction, with its bias-cut segments, decreases the amount of fabric that is used in the manufacture of the air bag and tethers, while providing sufficient elongation for the tether system to be functional.
