These straps are 4 inches wide, then taper down to 1-1/2 inches on the front. The adjustable back is 1 inch wide. (straplocks not included) (Straplocks not included) This caramel color of the sample will not be available on the first order. Colors available are: 1. Black leather with tobacco suede middle, black suede backing and brown stitching 2. Chestnut leather with beige suede middle and chestnut suede backing and chestnut stitching Both have a burnished gold Alembic logo embossed on the front. The leathers are incredibly supple and extremely comfortable to wear. Even if you wear the strap close to your neck it doesn't cut in. The wide strap distributes the weight over a larger area of your shoulder for less fatigue. Price is $95 retail. mica Moderator Username: mica Post Number: 1458 Registered: 6-2000 Posted on Tuesday, March 02, 2004 - 1:59 pm:    The chestnut brown has been modified to have a copper embossed logo. We're expecting the first batch of straps on March 10th, so we'll start shipping the preorders then. Only a few of each color are still available. mica Moderator Username: mica Post Number: 1474 Registered: 6-2000 Posted on Wednesday, March 10, 2004 - 1:59 pm:    All preordered straps were shipped today, so beon the lookout for your own little boxes to arrive soon. admin Board Administrator Username: admin Post Number: 22 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Friday, March 12, 2004 - 6:06 pm:    Black version with burnished gold: Higher contrast Chestnut version with copper: More subtle Both look cool.
