Footycrazy straps
Re: Footycrazy straps
^^^^^ The strap that AVO has reminds me of a Hirsch Liberty. Makes sense, as IIRC Graham was a fan of the Liberty and often used to wear one with his Ranger.

Re: Footycrazy straps
Those black ones with the tooling look very nice indeed, Graham.
After 10 days the chestnut strap on my Speedy is wearing in beautifully.

Nice one here too.
For reference, the strap is one of these (photo taken from @Footycrazy's for sale topic).

Re: Footycrazy straps
I've purchased two custom straps from Graham and have received flawless service and strap quality from him! Both shipped to Canada quickly and well packaged. I received them in a nice tissue wrapping that was inside a padded shipping envelope.
I asked Graham if he could make me an XL strap in a Tea Green colour to emulate one I've seen on a discontinued Panerai Radiomir model. Graham absolutely delivered and went above and beyond to custom make exactly what I was searching for !!! The strap is extremely well made and the length is perfect with the pin and buckle in the middle hole.
HIGHLY recommend Footycrazy-straps!

Re: Footycrazy straps
Another great strap from footycrazy to replace the original Oris strap that I reacted badly to, I got a rash. I must be allergic to Roebuck.

Re: Footycrazy straps
Well I said "use your imagination and surprise me".
This won't be everyones cup of tea but I absolutely bl*#dy love it. Glam meets retro racing!
Amazing service, craftmanship and turnaround from Graham and it doesn't look like it came from a factory.
