I contact Greg and he told me try to sell some strap, get some good feed back and he may consider to add me to trusted strap maker. It's what i'm trying my best to conquer.

 

I'll sell in M2M Area. Here is just for show.

What kind of price range?

I priced my straps base on labor cost, cost of material, the effort to make products and a little profit. While our labor cost is low and material is imported in large quantity, especially exotic leather is taken from factory directly...etc my price range is around 30$ to $80 only.

 

Our tools is from Japan, Stitching is imported from Hemp Beadery - U.S.
