nice, but fragile strap for light instruments
a nice comfy strap for lighter and non-neck diving instruments.
it's stiff out of the package and benefits from some break-in.
on the positive side, it's very well padded, so it doesn't cut into your shoulder even with heavy instruments.
on the negative side, the construction seems a bit fragile, I've attached strap locks once and not taking them off, I'll see, how it holds. the strap already developed cracks near the top button, where it folds when hanging on a guitar, it took only several months.
also the leather grain looks like somebody took a not great piece of leather, and tried to cut it in aesthetic way. not really sure, if that part is glued of multiple pieces or not.
frankly, I had great expectations about this strap being non-slippery, as other reviews suggest. to me, it's not, it's just the same grip as in all other leather-backed straps of this width, i.e. slippery. if your instrument has a neck dive, it'll slip.
this exact colour with a contrasting stitch IMO looks great, less cheesy than the solid black color. the stitch on mine turned out cream, not white (as on pictures), but it's the way I like it better.
