Shell Cordovan Nato
I forgot I ordered these last week from a VRF member and was very excited to see them in my mailbox today! Now I just need to age them a bit so they don't look so new on my 5512. Any ideas how to do that besides wearing them.

Cool stuff. I should take a picture of my growing strap collection. I have added several new ones in the past few weeks. I received the gray-blue Corvus admiralty NATO today. Loving it.

Too many options? No such thing.
Congrats, it looks great! Natural wear will look best. dP

Not easy....I do not have a shell cordovan band, but have serveral in shoes. This type of leather--when polished correctly--can continue to look shiny and new for a very long period indeed. Enjoy in good health.

Sure looks beautiful Matt. Ask Kyle how to age your strap, he had posted how he sand papered his a while ago and looked awesome.
