This strap, maybe it doesn't look like it, but is one of the most reliable on the market. I've had a few others, but this one, of my first guitar was just too good. I had to get more of those, since it never comes of. Ever. The leather on the ends is really robust and doesn't tear or anything like that. It's maybe not the most comfortable, for your shoulders, since it's not too soft, but for me, personally, it delivers.
