Review on πŸ”§ Enhance Durability with Benchmark Straps Silicone Rubber Stitching by Chris Destruction

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I have replaced the leather strap that came with my Skagen.

I replaced the leather strap that came with my Skagen Holst with this benchmark strap. The teeth that attach the tension rods to the canvas are tapered and the tape included in the kit is tapered from 22mm to 20mm. I bought 20mm benchmark tape and used the 22mm pull rods that came with Skagen. The 22m rods were slightly larger in diameter but were easy to thread through the benchmark strip. I have thin wrists and the shortest hole on the Benchmark strap starts at the same point as the holst. UPDATE: After a few weeks of wearing this strap, the rubber finish is showing signs of wear (which is to be expected). My third photo shows what I mean and although it was taken after a few months of wearing it looks pretty much the same as it did after the first two weeks. It's not really a defect, but you need to be aware of it.

Pros
  • Permanent Test Results
Cons
