My go to strap on Strat and Tele guitars. I own a lot of guitars, and a lot of straps. I find most quality leather straps to be far too thick, heavy, and stiff. Literal doubled over, double stitched harness leather. Though the harness leather looks great, I’m not a plow horse and my guitars aren’t THAT heavy. These Levy straps are the perfect level of strength vs suppleness. I can easily fold it in thirds or quarters and put in inside compartment in a standard fender hard shell case.Length of the normal “short” strap is perfect for my use with Fender-style guitars. Obviously you’ll need to set the length by where you thread the thinner tailpiece into the wider strap body. For additional shortening, thread the tail in and out of strap eyes (like a shoelace) rather than in at the top, skipping all in the middle, and out at the bottom. Tailpiece has a high and a low hole for mounting to the guitar- I add a third in the middle and can accommodate any of my preferred playing positions in an instant. My acoustic guitars need the long version, as I’m sure bigger hollow body electrics would, or those who like their guitar’s low (think Slash).Very utilitarian-style looks, which I love. Fender guitars are literally bolted/screwed together and were historically painted with automotive lacquer. Overly-ornate or flashy straps just don’t mesh with their DNA, imo. Your flame-topped PRS or LP may need a touch of flash and refinement, but your Strat or Tele probably doesn’t. Natural color for maple necks and most guitars with light pickguards, black for those with black pickguards and/or rosewood boards.Comfort is subjective. This strap offers no additional padding, obviously, which is my preference. Secondary shoulder pads (think luggage strap) never seem to stay where I want them, or dig in on their edges into my neck. I prefer the semi-flexible single-ply leather to either stiff/thick double-ply or ultra flexible/foldable fabric. I might feel differently if guitars weighed 10 pounds instead of 6 or 7.

Very stiff on the leather and the suede was not shaggy at all. Felt more like a flat texture and had no suede look to it like my Franklin and Pierre suede straps do. Returned it for another Pierre.

It's nothing fancy—just a nice, plain, long-lasting leather strap. I would've preferred one a bit wider, but the price difference didn't justify it. You can use this with the smooth (non-suede) side out, too, so you needn't display the logo; that's what I do. (I'll be glad to use it the other way around if the company wants to pay me to advertise them. 😄 )

Muy buena, cómoda, estética y resistente.Luce mucho sabiendo combinarlo con el color del instrumento.Para personas de complexión delgada y baja estatura la extralarga no va bien.

its thin, 2 inches , suede so if your guitar has neck dive, it stops it. And best part is that its long!! i love playing low on an already wide guitar so it gives me the perfect height. love how it looks too

First I got the standard size, which was so short is was laughable. I then got the longer one and it is long enough, but the thin part of the strap is soooo long that the adjustment section sits up way too high on your back so you feel all the bumps and uneven surfaces of the adjustment section right between your shoulder blades. Terrible. The only thing you should fell on your shoulder and back are the thick part of the strap. Obviously it is cheap, so you get what you pay for, but still a terrible design.

This is a great guitar strap at an amazingly inexpensive price. I love that the strap is not stiff and uncomfortable, but that it’s soft and durable. I will definitely use this company again for my future needs.

I have A LOT of guitars, each with a strap. I probably have 30-40 suede straps. They are the best for gripping your shoulder (important if your guitar has a neck dive). These Levy's ones are sturdy enough not to fold or wrinkle and will last a long time. The edges are a little sharp(?), cut squarely, but will soften with time. Good value purchase.

I’ve always liked Levy’s straps and have several, mostly wide and xlong garment leather types but I wanted something skinnier for my 77 les Paul jr. just because it looks cooler.The leather is stiffer but not bad and the quality is first rate. And it does go loooong.Obviously not as comfortable as the wide soft varieties but really nice and half the cost.
