Anyone know where to get them? And roughly how much they should cost? Just curious. I saw some nice ones today at a shop in NYC but they were 175$ which was more than I had expected them to be

Plenty of leather Natos around. And in no way should they be 175 usd. take a look here: http://cgi.ebay.com/20mm-NATO-Milita...4.c0.m14.l1262

I've never bought their leather straps but have around 8 of their nylon ones, and they're great.

No such thing as a "leather NATO" are far as I know???

No need to pay that much. Here are two great resources: http://www.internationalwatchman.com/home.html [scroll down to near bottom] and http://natostrap.blogspot.com/search?q=shark+nato .
Inexpensive, comfortable, and includes more robust hardware compared to classic nato straps.

Like Dan says no need to pay that much. You can buy every available colors and it will still be less than what you saw at a shop in NYC. I got brown one on my Sinn 556 today.

Nice! Thanks so much for the tips. I thought 175 was way overpriced. I'm surprised how many people don't know that leather natos exist :)

No problem, Greg.

If you go for the buffalo natos from IW you can specify brushed or polished hardware.

Don't forget the pics when you get one.
