Why have I ordered five straps from the other side of the world?
Because they're simply worth it.
I've now ordered five bass straps from Italia Leather Straps, and every single one has been outstanding. The leather is beautifully finished, incredibly comfortable, and they support even heavy basses with ease during long playing sessions.
The craftsmanship is excellent, the designs are tasteful, and the quality is consistently top-notch. Every strap I've received has exceeded my expectations.
When you keep coming back to buy the same product from the other side of the world, I think that's the best review anyone can give.
Highly recommended! 👊

High quality leather and construction, a strap for life!
This is the second of two 4” straps I purchased from Italia Leather. See pic of both below. The first was the Elite (see review below). This one is suede-backed. Again the high quality design and construction are evident in all aspects of the strap - leather quality, construction, thread and stitching. This is a strap for life! The 4” width distributes the weight of my Les Paul evenly, eliminating back discomfort, it looks and feels great - especially during long sessions! I highly recommended it!!

I love these straps
If the smell of these straps when you open the package isn’t enough, you will like the quality of them, I promise.

Every guitar deserves a strap for life
I bought my first couple of Italia Straps in 2006 on e-bay. They have been my go to ever since. These truly are straps for life. Since (mostly) shifting from guitar to bass, I really appreciate how the 4" straps spread the weight on my shoulder and they tend to stay in place, although I don't have instruments with neck dive issues. I bought the strap featured in this review specifically for the Sterling (by MM) SUB Stingray 5HH pictured here. The Black and Cognac really looks good on it. The leather is so substantial and yet, incredibly supple. I generally use the 4" straps on my basses due to the weight, but I decided to use a 2.5" Rossa/Black strap for my Fender MIM 2021 75th Anniversary Player Jazz Bass and it works great on this somewhat lighter instrument. When I purchased my Washburn Force 4 ABT bass on e-bay in 2006, I bought a 4" Suede Italia Strap for it and they have been together ever since. I would definitely consider getting another suede strap if they were ever available again.

Excellent and stylish straps!
I have bought a few 4” Italia straps over the years and am very happy with them. Comfortable, durable and I like the look/the shape/how the leather is cut. :D
