Old pic, the guitar has changed a bit, but the strap remains:

My most interesting strap is a purple seatbelt strap from Couch :Image

Except from a crumbling wide leather strap I shouldn't have bought, the other straps I have came on the guitars I bought or traded. I have a grey tobago one with included metal pseudo-straplocks that need rubber washers to stay in place :D

I have coveted the Couch bird strap for more than a decade now, but the shipping to Europe makes it pretty unreasonable...

i’m a big fan of couch (specifically racer x) straps. i’m sick to know there was a man or astroman signature one that I missed out on.

I'd take a picture of mine but it would just be a pile of a dozen or so Couch 'None More Black' straps.

I'm a man of simple tastes when it comes to straps. Black goes with everything.
Silly Rabbit, don't you know scooped mids are for kids?

I'm a sucker for a cool strap.

Apparently my uncle had this guitar when he was in Vietnam (the conflict), so the strap seemed appropriate.

Normally I don't mix shades of colors, but for whatever reason this one worked.

And here's an actual working seatbelt one my wife got me a few years back. Safety first!

The color in this one doesn't match as well as I hoped; I'm going to need to get a new guitar.

I actually won a Souldier strap of my choice in a contest that they held over Christmas. It delivered last week, and I think I made a good choice, these seem to go together perfectly.

Handmade by "peaceofferings". She makes 2'' straps, but I asked for a 3'' strap. I have conflicting emotions about it...But it is quite comfortable:

I think this is my favorite strap. Blue flowers by Perri on a Daphne Blue Squier:
