: I just got my Noel Howard bag strap in the mail today(Monday 4/19). I just ordered it on Wednesday the 14th and they mailed it on the 15th. Pretty quick service....The strap itself looks fine to me. The color is like the one in "Raiders", almost a reddish brown. The top side of the strap is finished while the under side is rough leather. The buckle does, like someone else said, look worn and weathered which to me makes it look more authentic. The "stitches" that are said to run along the strap are nothing more than grooves...no stitches or thread, just two parallel indents that run the length of the strap. I ordered the 71" model and it looks like it'll fit me perfect. I'm 5'10" so with the buckle in the middle of my chest, the ends that'll be attached to the bag end up just a little below my waist. I don't think I could've made a better strap, or have had one made that is as close as this one for only $17.00. I'm more than satisfied with it and the shipping time was icing on the cake. Now I just have to order the whip holder from Noel Howard....has anyone else? What does it look like and how much does it cost?

Hey Joel E. Are you sure you mean 17 dollars and not 17 pounds?
Take another look at your receipt and let me know because either
I was charged too much for my strap, or you are going to be surprised
when you get your Visa statement.
