Icon10 New shoes! Toshi storm grey for the 164

i'm now a repeat offender with rich, having first been fully satisfied by the toshi almond.

was looking for a grey casual weekend strap for black sweaters, etc., and decided to go with the toshi storm grey. rich was helpful as usual figuring out the details (light grey stitching, etc.), and, two weeks later, i'm wearing this.

first impressions: super soft and supple (more so than the almond) with a great leather smell, and the stitching and overall quality seem top notch (especially at the price point). very happy!

already scanning his other straps.....

Thanks all!

I'll be honest, when I first got it, I thought it was a really nice strap and was good for the collection, but it didn't "wow" me. Now, after having worn it all day, I can't help thinking it's COOL. Really grown on me, and it feels great.
