A Few good straps

Sharing my modest stash (certainly waaaaay far off than what I have seen from the others and I am hope I dont get to that stage as my wife wont be too happy!!)...

This is what I have now after buying off and selling others as I am trying to get a good mix/ balance in my inventory. I also plan to really rotate and wear them and not just stash them away as I dont want to waste money. I am so far quite happy with the mix of Simonas, a few David Lanes, Greg Stevens, Mario Paci, Gunnys, Paolo18 and of course OEMs...certainly missing a few. Hmmmm...what could be next??

Any suggestions?

@nauticajoe, bcancnc, dcgator - thanks, guys!

@ronmiller - sure, will let you know...

@kilyung - ok, will look at some dive straps

still tons of choices out there so long way to go to satisfy our cravings lol! --> a GSD has a lot of great leather variety, same as Mario Paci, a few more Gators as mentioned, a strap to pair with my blue jeans, a Mustard colored one, a black sharkie, an ostrich a Kev ammo, saw a black ammo...hmmm what else?? Oh, I dont have a Rob Montana yet - should I get one? Is it worth the wait? How about a Delaurian?

Rob (rugged and WELL worth the money, not long wait either)
and ABP (IMHO, better than OEM gators and I love OEM gators).

Hi kilyung - good spot!

Had a Ted Su Swiss ammo but decided to sell it

Thought that i had 1 ammo too many although one could say that you could never have enough of ammos

Had a bad experience with them (a very long story altogether, maybe just got unlucky) so that's why unloading that Ted was a no brainer...

Very nice straps you have there! I just started getting in to Pams and I can just imagine my collection in a few months :)

Yeah, post pics!!!

I am sure you are now starting to custom order your straps left and right. That is how I was in my first few months Then ended up selling off those I just did not end liking when I received them - sometimes the pics are different from the actuals when you receive them or sometimes I did not realize ended up with one type too many!! so still doing some 'calibrating' and getting the right mix up to now. i find that my taste changes over time just like with other things....
