Avoid strapnstyles camera straps

This is only about their leather straps, I can not speak for any other products.

It's simply very low quality. The back side is rough and papery, the edges are sharp and unfinished, and the grain looks like an artificial stamped pattern rather than natural leather.

The rings are too small, so they are squeezing the leather, making them impossible to spin without a tool which is not how I would like to install them on my camera and accidentally scratch it.

The Chicago screws are too long, so they don’t press the folded leather ends tightly together and instead protrude. Besides looking cheap, they can easily get caught on something. In the product pictures, this is not the case, and in general the leather looks different there.

Also, they delete bad reviews.

If anyone can recommend me an actually high quality, soft leather strap around 50€ with availability in europe, I would appreciate it.

Cheers
