New Gorilla Straps on my 111-Lotus Inspired

A few months ago I commissioned Bo the owner of Gorilla Straps to let his mind go crazy and design a strap I could wear in the Lotus that mimicked the fun qualities and attributes of the car. I have to say this thing is a stunner, when I opened the box both my fiance' and I were like DAMN that is gorgeous. The perforated leather and colors match absolutely perfectly. Really fun sporty strap. Bo even made me a matching keychain piece branded with my initials which is VERY cool.

The second is an Oil Drum which is absolutely gorgeous. This is by far the softest strap I own and honestly may be my overall favorite. Really simple, but really gorgeous. The color, texture, and feel really make this a winner. It's got a vintage attitude to it and I totally dig it.

Bo, as always man thank you for the great stuff. Every strap brings the Panerai into a new realm of enjoyment.

I've got nearly 10 straps now from Bo and every one gets better and better. I highly recommend ordering from him.

Very cool. I can swing the strap. The car might take a bit.
