I only have good things to say about this strap. It was difficult to find exactly what I was looking for in a strap (minimalistic, handcrafted and all black) and T&D had it all. Justin was quick to respond to questions and I appreciate his taking my specific length request. The 3/4" width feels great in hand and carrying the weight across the neck. The leather feels superb, takes a little time to break in (a good thing) and feels special enough to take care of and treasure. I've been using this strap daily for hours in all kinds of weather and feel confident it will last for many years with minimal care. Why settle for less than perfection?!
