As a guy who just lost 50+ pounds I need new straps and being a big fan of embossed straps these guys came highly recommended to me on Revain. Boy am I happy with the quality, the leather is thick not thin, it has a nice patina. The embossing is great too and they have more than just western styles to choose from. I actually went for the celtic knots which look amazing! Belt I was looking for over $200. Can't say enough about the quality and I'm already saving for another black wicker.
