I was so pleased that I was able to finally find and receive the shoulder strap for my briefcase that I had not gotten from another company here in the US many years ago which subsequently is out of business. It looks fantastic and was exactly what I wanted.

5 The purse strap was gorgeous
The purse strap was gorgeous ! Talk about quality ! I am thinking about ordering another one in my "next favorite color ' :)
5 Excellent!
I bought this strap for a black leather camera bag. The bag itself had silver coloured buckles and this strap matched perfectly. It is also very comfortable, carries weight very well and looks and feels excellent. It is strong and durable, and well worth the money, as I doubt it will ever need to be replaced.
5 Great quality leather strap.
Bought it to replace the thinner strap on my favourite soft leather shoulder bag. It clips onto the metal loops of the bag perfectly and the flexible pad on the strap is so comfortable to wear. It is beautifully made of top quality leather.
5 I was concerned that if the hook wasn't that strong it would be easy for it to be snatched
The hook that came with my bag would do up, so I ordered this one. I was concerned that if the hook wasn't that strong it would be easy for it to be snatched. Well with this it won't be. Both the strap and the hooks are really strong. Not the cheapest but will last for years.
5 Four Stars
Nice leather. Looks good. Possibly the clips are a little large but probably won't notice after time.
5 Five Stars
Lovely strap well made and comfortable to use, it also has high-end fittings and looks the part
5 Great bag strap
Bought for a lovely handbag I own that has an uncomfortable strap. This strap is really comfortable, looks good and matches the bag perfectly
5 Super quality
Excellent quality, I'd hunted high and low for one for my smart leather briefcase and couldn't find one strong and wide enough. This one fits the bill perfectly.
5 Leather Strap
Really pleased with it. Looks great. It is exactly what i was looking for. Easy to adjust strap to length you want it.
5 Five Stars
Great strap for my bag. Quite long and good quality leather. Looks elegant
5 Luxury Black Leather Bag Strap
Had to replace a strap on my 12-month-old premium leather office bag, one of the pivoting clasps that clip failed, this strap whilst of identical quality in terms of the leather had much stronger strong clasps, in fact, they could do quite some damage if they hit someone as they appear to be solid 4mm thick chrome-plated steel! Well, at least I know that when the bag needs replacing the strap will still be in perfect working order...
5 Perfect!
Very comfortable and sturdy. Replaced my LV messaged bag. Perfect.
5 I highly recommend this very dependable strap and the excellent service of this company.
I highly recommend this item. The price on this may have gone up some, I bought one some time ago. This is a VERY GOOD strap. One of the frequent problems with such items is that the metal is often a very low quality, planned obsolescence type of metal that I believe is called "pot metal", almost something like metal manufacturing leftover scrap materials, and the mechanism when a strap is made of that will tend to bend out of shape or break, or bend out of shape and then break when you bend it back. I bought this strap back more than a year and a half ago. I am kind of rough as far as loading a bag up a lot and was using the strap to often walk four miles a day to a bus plus sometimes hanging groceries off the bag on the way back. What I say then is not typical entirely typical use But the strap lasted and lasted and lasted in spite of my putting great strain on it. It lasted a lot longer than any strap I had ever had, perhaps about a year and a half or more, when straps usually gave out on me in, perhaps, two months. One day it broke. I had overpacked my bag and then had additional materials hanging from it. This may sound silly, but I actually felt saddened, because I had been able to depend upon this strap like no other. Then the thought occurred to me to check on whether there was a guarantee. There was, and although I had to mail the strap in to them, they promptly, courteously, without question or grumbling fixed it. If you are an actor or actress in a movie and pretending to carry something for a scene, you will not need this strap. But if you have to depend on a strap to carry a bit of weight and you need for it to last, I highly recommend this strap. And if you ARE an actor or actress in a movie and pretending to carry something for a scene, try to get the producer to supply you with this strap with the stipulation that you will be allowed to take it home.
5 A Beautiful Replacement Strap
When the old strap on my much-loved briefcase broke, I found this replacement. I wanted a new strap that was equally as elegant and sturdy as my bag. This was it! The brown strap I ordered is high-quality and just right. Now the entire bag feels new.
5 Five Star
Well made and a perfect replacement strap, thought I'd never find one!

OUR SIGNATURE LEATHER
Two decades have passed, and we are still committed to using our unique, unparalleled Vachetta leather that only one tannery possesses the precise formula to produce. Our prestigious leather is certified by the Genuine Italian Vegetable-Tanned Leather Consortium, a certificate of quality awarded to less than 1.5% of Italian tanneries. By showcasing their trademark and quality assurance, we honour the heritage of skilled artisans.
Finest Full-Grain Vachetta Leather
Often imitated but never matched, our high-quality full-grain Vachetta leather is unrivalled due to three essential components:
1. HIDES - we source only European hides reared in perfect conditions, ensuring tough and durable leather with a quality finish.
2. TANNING PROCESS - we use a natural centuries-old technique of vegetable-tanning which is both organic and sustainable.
3. TANNERY - Our tannery is based in the heart of Tuscany, arguably the best region in the world. It has been awarded countless awards and delivers some of the 1.5% best leather in Italy. These factors combine to yield a premium, durable leather with exceptional visual appeal.
A Unique Patina
As time passes, a captivating patina will develop, subtly transforming its colour and aesthetic as it gracefully weathers the elements, a highly desirable characteristic of pure untreated leather, leaving a legacy of its journey. Unwanted marks and surface scratches can be effortlessly removed due to our slow process of drum-dying the leather all the way through, unlike faster methods of hand and surface dyeing. Our deep, earthy tanned leather is of unparalleled quality, allowing it to retain its natural strength, character, and properties without any alterations or corrections. In contrast, coated full-grain leather loses its appeal as it ages in as little as 12 months.
Sustainably Tanned With Chestnut Trees
We're committed to using a centuries-old technique that has remained unchanged for thousands of years. The process of vegetable tanning requires considerable time and patience, as our hides immerse themselves in drums for 60 days. We’ve always believed that the reward of sustainable, premium leather is worth the wait. With only 10-12% of the world's leather being vegetable-tanned due to quicker and cheaper methods of tanning becoming more prevalent, we are proud to honour the traditions and legacy of authentic leather craft passing the exceptional benefits onto our customers.
Guardians of a Rich Legacy
We honour an authentic approach to tanning leather, using Chestnut extracts to embrace a sustainable and organic method of dyeing, preserving a traditional practice that dates back thousands of years. The deep colour and natural scent of our signature leather are a testament to this ancient technique, enabling wearers to fully immerse themselves in the beauty of nature.
Crafted To Last a Lifetime
The combination of these factors forms a dependable yet timeless work of art, which will accompany you for a lifetime. To demonstrate our confidence, we offer an industry-leading 25-year warranty.
