I used to have a chain guitar strap on my Led Paul, but one of them had to go! I still make the audience wear a blindfold and pick a safe word though!

I have seven straps. I only have three guitars. I've had the old Earth III camo strap since I was 13.
I think the music store gave me this strap when I bought my Yairi in 1978. A TDP member said it looked like the embroidery on the bottom of his sister's jeans . . .

Here's a few. A strap for each guitar, and a guitar for each strap.
Same Les Paul, but moved the starred Moodys back to the blonde Esquire, and replaced it with a vintage Moodys.

So my son bought me this black woven nylon DiMarzio strap for my new instrument, and it turned out to be a little short for the sort of up-and-out guitarrón position. I took it back to Guitar Center today to find something a few inches longer. I had something narrow and leather in the tan/buckskin spectrum in mind, and most of what I saw was not that, and was even shorter. Then I found this longer Perri’s suede strap, in what I’d say is in the region of turquoise-to-Seafoam green. I got thinking about how that would look against wood, and decided it might be odd but would probably be comfortable with a bulky lightweight instrument, and at my first string replacement I can probably get my colorway together with some different colors on the nylon strings.
(Guitarrón strings come in some pretty wild colors; the nylon strings on it now are some kind of wild tropical swirl).
I just tried it and at its longest setting, it feels great, so that’s sexy enough for me.

Sexy? Black leather qualifies I suppose. And it goes with anything. I like these...

I just put strap locks on my Old Black.
You can see some of the strap…

Now I have strap envy.
I’ve seen them on Reverb I think. I think I have a couple I paid about $30 - $40 for. I know I couldn’t have one made that nicely with that type soft leather and embossing for under a $100 bucks. What a nice strap. I’ll try to pat pics of the ones I’ve bought, and thanks for chiming in.
Now that’s just cool!
Yes!
Well sure it is!
I factored in typing time
my other one.. blue on black or black and blue...

Hi.
I find straps problematic. I want comfort and (what I perceive as) style. For me at least, a lot of straps have neither, let alone both. Probably why the majority of my straps are reasonably comfortable and really plain.
Here's two I often use. Photos taken a few mins ago. The first, by Levy, I find comfortable and I like the look of it. The second one, which I picked up one time back in New Zealand, is not as comfortable as it looks, and once I got it I decided it was not so cool. It's okay with the bass though.
