All of my guitar straps come from Get'm Get'm (though most came from Ebay - $60+ for a guitar strap's a little steep). They're beautiful things though.

Just noticed they make camera straps - couture for your camera?? All I can say is, the quality of their guitar stuff is first class. Take a gander (though on eBay you might find discontinued patterns - some of my fave guitar patterns aren't in production anymore):

I can see one of my Hasselblads asking, "Does this strap make me look heavy?"

Everyone knows a Canadian company Levy's make the best guitar straps in the business http://www.levysleathers.com/browse;cat,786;Classic-Guitar-Straps, and the Get'm Get'm camera straps are too flashy for me, I prefer plain black Domke Gripper Straps that don't attract attention.

As pretty as my guitar straps are, I'm with Benji myself, just gimme a plain strap for my cameras. I could see these being a nice gift for someone (possibly a lady?) into fashion and shooting.

The Levi's straps - they have some pretty nice designs, but most of theirs have that super-thick puffed-up leather thing going on, I like the soft get'm's personally.

For my guitars, I have some really cool brocade get'm straps, each carefully chosen for a specific guitar - and yes, they mate for life!

I'm a plain strap guy myself, but this one is calling. Don't think I'll put it on my Nikon, though. Maybe on my Holga.

I've always been challenged when it comes to straps. Speaking of guitars, my acoustic still has a Guitar Hero strap attached - after desperate measures at a university gig.

That... is a holga strap if ever there was one.

A teal blue version would be tits on a Diana!

Hmmm...."tits on a Diana". Sounds like a figure of speech. Good thing the cameras are not called Fred or something.

Could make a good name for a band...

The "notes" app on my iPhone is used whenever I think "hmm, good band name".

I'm up to about 80 now, if anyone needs one. But I'm keeping Crystal Meth Gayle.
