It's been a long time coming but we are finally happy to announce that we have secured what we have found to be some of the best perforated racing straps available on the market today. Along with our recent addition of leather travel accessories, these straps come from our good friends at Atelier Romane. We wanted slim, elegant leather straps that could elevate your favourite chronograph. Atelier Romane delivered on that challenge brilliantly. 

Untraditional choices

When choosing what leather to use for these straps we found that traditional cow leather wasn't the right kind of leather. Cow leather cannot be produced as thin as we would like these straps to be. Ultimately we landed on pigskin leather for the straps and goatskin leather for the lining. This allowed Atelier Romane to create a strap that is fully stitched, yet only 2,3mm thick. The goatskin lining is hypoallergenic, and ensures great comfort on the wrist. 

The holes in a strap like this find their roots in the 1970's. The design is inspired by the most original weight saving technique out there; creating strategic holes in car parts to shave off weight. Additionally, it ensures great ventilation for your wrist. 

The straps are available in 18, 19, and 20mm width. 

The Specs: 

  • European made pigskin outer 
  • European made goatskin lining 
  • 18, 19, 20mm width 
  • Tone on tone stitching 
  • Length: 11,5 cm and 7,5 cmm (excluding buckle)
