Thread: NEW NEW...and SWEEEEET!!

Hey Guys, 2 years ago I came across these 2 vintage swiss military back packs and have finally gotten around to using one for some very cool straps. I only have enough material for about 10 straps so you can place an order any length and width you would like including fatty style and straps for Bell&Ross or most any other piece that you have. It is a tightly woven canvas. I would also like to show you 2 new very cool leathers that I have just got in from Italy from my same great tannery. They have a special technique applied to them to give the finish that you will see below. And finally some fantastic hand made pens that are laser engraved of the Flottiglia Mas. As always thank you for your con't support as each order is appreciated. Paypal to my email and feel free to ask questions. Cheers Rob Montana aka The StrapSmith. You can email for more photos as well.

As always these are truly hand crafted from start to finish and hand stitched. To give you an idea hand stitched straps take about 30-40 minutes to stitch alone as opposed the sewing machined straps which take about 90 seconds.

Here is the first strap that I made from the backpack. These are very limited and sell for $229 a piece which includes tubes and buckle. This one has small beige thread and I am going to work on one with olive mil spec green and an off white.

Next up is the vintaged crackled gold Italian vegetable tanned leather. These are $179 delivered in the US (bit more overseas) with standard buckle and tubes if needed.

Hummmm I have a PAM that would look sexy with that strap! Think you could do a black cross stitch on it?

Hi, probably. Just define exactly what cross stitch you wanted and email me at ristirob@mac.com

Cheers
Rob

Do you happen to have a picture of the Pam with the "Backpack Strap" on the wrist?

It is a beautiful strap.

Nicely done as always, Rob.

Just picked up one in brushed leather, can't wait until it arrives!!!
