Icon5 Hadley Roma Straps?

Hi everyone!

Just a quick question and I hope I am posting at the right section.

Is anyone familiar with Hadley Roma straps? I am looking into getting a pair of stingray straps for my up-coming birthday and had looked into the custom-made strap company Inspire Workshop. Then I came across the Hadley Roma, ready-made, straps from another company. Both are similar in photos but the price difference is about 50%. Just wonder if Hadley Roma straps are of good quality or should I opt for the custom made straps

Thank you!

Have you checked out straps from Di Modell? German made, excellent quality.
I prefer them to HR.

H-R make OK straps, average quality in my opinion.
+1 on Di-Modell...quality worth paying a bit of a premium for.

I like the Tiffany sharkskin. Just bought two more on the bay.
