Strap Question

Hey Guys,

I have a 7" wrist and will be ordering some straps for the PAM. Can some of you pros give me some pointers on thickness, length (tail), etc?

Here's what I know, or have at least learned:

Given my 7" wrist- 5mm thick should= a 90/150 and 4mm thick- 85/145

I know it's personal preference, but without knowing otherwise I always appreciate the input

What is the best thickness anyway?

Thanks!!

From my experience, if you have a 7" wrist and you are ordering a 'thick' strap...something like a 5mm thickness, you should be fine with a 135/75mm. You will probably be using the middle hole on the strap. Not too long tailend and not too short of a tail end.

If you want to get a long tail, get a strap like 145/80 or somewhere in that dimension.

and imo, THICK STRAPS > THIN STRAPS. They just look better!
