"Aw, he got the Velcros"

Recommended Posts

It's not just the sneakerheads saying that...

 

Build this custom strap for a customer using Velcro, a sewn metal and floating keepers. Fabricating the friggin' metal keeper was the toughest part of the entire build. Dumb pics now...

Think it looks very good.

Kind of semi-butch NATO !

It's actually surprisingly comfortable and easy to adjust and snug up.

Here's my concept sketch... Amazing what you can accomplish on a 4 hour flight.

I'd imagine it would be annoying to put on or off. But each to their own I guess. It does look good.

Thanks Sav. No different than a buckle with a floating keeper actually. Not my cup of tea though. Doubt ill be building a second any time soon.
