New Shoes

Just got this Kaktus Drifter "Original" yesterday and wanted to share with you all. It's 3mm thick and quite lovely. I have to admit I'm a 4mm fan, but this is one fine strap!

I have a 7" wrist and this baby is a 150/80.

I hope you enjoy!



P.S. Have any of you seen the new Kaktus "CUJO?" Oh man is that one nice!!!

congrats bryan, you know how to choose straps.
my wrist is the same size, isn't it too big, do you use it loose?
how long to delivery?

Tui,

I enjoy talking to you about Panerai and straps. The strap is slightly large, I'd say by only around 5mm though and it all depends on how much tail you like. If I were to order again, I would make it a 145/80, but I really do think the strap is nice and the tail is the max I prefer. I don't wear it loose at all and shipping took around 2-weeks.
