Elite Series: 4 Inch Wide Leather Backed Guitar Straps

Had this second Italia 4" Strap purchased for me, by my significant other as a Holiday gift, because I hinted about the quality of my prior purchase from Italia Strap. Got it and it was just as great as the first. Never expected anything less. The Holidays are quickly approaching and the hinting about the $' Elite Series,(Chocolate/Black), as my next purchase is already in the works. Satisfactory and quality is way beyond expectations every time. Product ages well and gets comfy more and more with each use. Supports my Bass like no other

I'm writing this after 3+ years.

Confirming the strap is beautiful and ages well. Time and use makes it better. I'll never need to replace this strap.

Note: if you are buying a wide strap to prevent neck dive, don't get this leather backed one. The leather is smooth and slides along your shoulder regardless of what you're wearing. Almost frictionless. Get the non leather backed instead (the standard 4" wide ones).

Note 2: The button strap holes are incredibly tight when new (ie first few years). I needed to widen mine for some strap locks and did a poor hack job with a razor. Worked out fine in the end. Research how to work with leather, I didn't I just went at it!

Note 3: For players with back injuries, a wide strap does help distribute weight more evenly over the shoulder. However it doesn't make your bass lighter - if you're insisting on using your 9+lbs bass you may still struggle regardless of strap width.

Despite my notes here, I am still absolutely satisfied with these straps! I have 1x leather backed and 2x standard backed.

Buy well buy once!

i have two of these elite ones for my basses and won't use anything else. 4" should be the standard strap width for bassists

Very sturdy high quality leather. When I was a kid, my dad used to sell high end leather Jackects. When I opened the package the smell of quality leather permeated the room. The smell brought back so much nostalgia.

The straps, while sturdy, are very comfortable. They look good, feel good, and I always get complements on them.

These guitar straps are simply the best , beautifully made , in a wide range of colours, the feel and smell of the leather is incredible, you will not regret buying these quality straps,

I now have 4 of these straps for my guitars. Best straps ever!

Feels very, very good.
Looks awsome, very high quality leather. No comparison to other straps which you can buy.

I recently purchased this leather guitar strap, and I am absolutely thrilled with it! The quality is exceptional — the leather feels soft yet durable, and the stitching is neat and precise, ensuring it will last for years. The strap is very comfortable to support long jam sessions without any discomfort. The adjustable length makes it versatile for different playing positions, and the classic leather design adds a touch of style to my guitar setup. Overall, this is a top-notch product that combines both functionality and aesthetics. Highly recommended for any guitarist!

Great quality and craftsmanship. Very comfortable and will help when I'm standing a long time while playing bass.

Excellent supportive strap. Nice looking heavy leather. I did need to make the holes larger to attach the strap locks, but its worth the trouble. I highly recommend them. 👍
