another quick question
I see all these great straps, where's the best place to purchase them and do you buy multiple buckles or use the same one?

Lots of places to get them. Have a look at ted su straps, I've got lots from them. Their quality and craftsmanship is amazing with very good tolerances. Yesterday I measured their 24mm strap width with my caliper and it was 24.07mm!
That being said their designs are also very nice. Have a look at their swiss ammos. I usually use different buckles for different straps, I mix and match ![]() If you're still unsure, here's a link of all strap sellers: http://www.paneraisource.com/aftermarket_straps.shtml |

I'm looking at some straps to get as well. If you want a Ted Su, send me a message as I can get a deal on those. They are just a few minutes away from where I live and I can get a discount for you. You too Glenn, let me know and If you need any Ted Su Straps. Cheers! ![]()

As far as quality (just by what I see, coz I haven't bought any aftermarket straps yet) I think Ted Su are the best in their price range (and they're not cheap). Then Stonee 74 may be nice (as several members on TRF attest).. Also check out http://www.europelli.com/EuropelliHandmade.html seem like serious about what they do... Toshi straps' Saddle, Limited Vintage and Metta (also a TRF fav) seem done with love... and Original Kodiak Waterproof for, we'll, waterproof ones (again, as TRF members and others attest). As for me, why I haven't yet bought any of those? Too reluctant to shell out cash (any amount) until I know it's well spent, so with the choice around, I'm finding it very difficult to pick a first, let alone start a collection! |

I think I messaged you before about the Ted Su straps when you mentioned them in another thread. Cheers!

![]() ![]() Plus, dough has limits! With the 372 bought last month, a hunt for one other grail (to be announced to u guys right here soon!), The References book... Decided to make do with the OEM for now! Though some say they like to save the OEMs and look at spending in the thousands on straps instead while enjoying the dressing up/down game, which I love (the idea of). |
