Max, Thank for Posting that Information. I am not sure about the strap though. They can probably get you the strap and buckle, but it needs to be attach the bag with rivets, at the shop. As you mentioned Max, the easiest way to get the leather strap is by checking out some local shops that can do it. Then take a couple photos with you, so you can show them exactly what you want.
