Every hide is different, and each one will have its own signature look; range markings, scars, and wrinkles give each piece a unique character. The color examples were photographed under natural light, and they're a good representation of how the leather looks in person, but some variation is always to be expected. With regular exposure to dirt and everyday life, the materials will darken and take on a warm patina.

This strap is made of quality leather and works perfectly on my Michael Kelly F-style mandolin. I wanted something thin but with more support over the shoulder. This strap is perfect. The photos are very accurate. I do some leatherwork and will say, the quality of the leather is very high. It's also nice to contribute to a craftsman rather than a big company.
Thick sturdy leather - nicely crafted.
Great quality but letters are really small
Owner and strap BEST u can get second one I've ordered both the same Great
I purchased this mandolin strap for my son, a professional folk mandolin musician, as a Christmas gift. He recently purchased a new mandolin to take his playing to the next level, and I wanted to support that. His current strap was an old belt! He was intrigued by the box and black tissue it was wrapped in, trying to guess what was inside. The joy on his face when he saw the strap, gorgeous dark leather, and his initials branded on the strap, will be a gift to me every time I watch him perform. Thank you for your beautiful craftsmanship, and attention to detail.
