The return of #Straps4ACure has been a huge success so far. Today we made our first donation to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation in the amount of $3,500! Our goal is to raise over $20,000 for breast cancer research. We are donating 50% of every strap sold.
Support the cause during October, Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Heavy Duty [HD] NATOs are similar, yet very different from our Standard and Premium collections. A lot of the color choices are the same, but there are two key differences versus the rest of our NATOs: the hardware and the nylon.
HDs have heftier, oval-shaped hardware, and are crafted with an extra-heavy nylon weave that ultimately makes the strap thicker, stiffer, and stronger. HDs are great if you like having a pronounced setting for your watch or prefer a bulkier feel. If you typically gravitate towards a heavier or larger watch, try pairing it with one of our 3-ring (single layer) or 5-ring (double layer) HD NATOs!
Survive the oppressive heat with a NATO strap on your watch. The nylon fabric is comfortable, durable, and waterproof. With 13 sizing holes, you can find the perfect fit when your arm swells and sweats. The waterproof nylon is up for any pool or beach activities, and can be washed with soapy water after a sweaty, sun-screen-y day.
Mix it up with some fun color combinations, and you'll be prepared to take it straight from the beach to the evening BBQ this summer.
After years of planning, we have finally produced a consistent supply of leather NATOs. This collection will be available year-round, and we plan on expanding the color options.
For this collection, we chose robust bridle leather (veg tanned cow) that is durable, strong, and virtually stretch-free. What you can expect is a strap that starts a little bit stiff, but will break-in beautifully, and last you a long time. It will darken and patina with age. It will mold to your wrist, and hold its form where you fold it into the keepers. These straps are the real deal, folks.
Available in 5 leather colors and 2 hardware finishes, we're sure you'll find a strap fitting of your favorite timepiece.

Our Glace Latigo leather comes straight from the windy city, specifically chosen off of the racks at Horween Leather Co. The deep "money green" leather has an attractive pebbled texture. This is a strong and durable leather, with no stretch. Glace Latigo comes in both brushed and PVD hardware, and can be found here.
We’ve been getting a lot of questions about the “single layer” option available for some of our NATO straps. The single layer version is simply a normal NATO strap with the second layer of nylon [under the watch head] removed. This makes the strap wear noticeably slimmer and closer to the wrist, which is especially nice for those of us with wrists under 7”. Removing this layer does not remove the protection of keeping the watch attached if one spring bar fails. That safety net is provided by the top layer that passes through the spring bars, not this secondary layer that is removed.
Single layer is available as a selectable option on our web site before you add a Supreme NATO or Leather NATO strap to your cart. If you are unsure, and want to try the strap as a normal double-layer NATO first, it’s easy to modify the strap yourself at home. Just check out the How-To section on our website.
In the photo above, the left two straps are the single layer version, and the right two straps are the "regular" two layer, traditional NATO version (which is the default, unless you select the singe option).
Looking for a versatile, medium brown strap? We've got you covered. Our Woodland straps have a smooth caramel shade with random, darker “scarring” that makes each and every strap completely different from the next. They are easy to match with just about any watch!
Our Phalanx straps have been a customer favorite, even when we only had them in two colors! Today we wanted to highlight the entire family. Each strap has contoured padding as well as a soft leather underside, which makes them flexible and comfortable. The nylon canvas will give your watch a unique, rugged look.
Right now you can get our Red Phalanx strap for 30% off here!
