Attention to detail

Why purchase a handmade guitar strap when you could get one at Amazon for $10-20? Because, the attention to detail that each component is given is a reflection of my obsession with making a better guitar strap. When I decided that I wanted to make guitar straps, I knew that I needed mine to stand out. I researched the history of the modern guitar strap. I analyzed how they are constructed and with what materials, then I selected the most beautiful and strongest components.
Quality Materials

I only weave guitar straps with 100% cotton or a very durable cotton and hemp blend. The hemp/cotton string softens with use, is colorfast, is described as light weight, and is ultra strong. When tablet woven, the extra strength that the 4-ply twist gives makes this one of the strongest, most secure bands you could use for your instruments. The buckle slide and hardware are selected for their light weight properties, strength, and for their contribution to the overall aesthetic. The leather is high quality veg-tan leather, hand cut and finished for durability and beauty in mind. The leather tabs are reinforced with both rivets and hand stitching, which is not seen in many guitar straps on the market. Beautiful leather finishes are used to compliment the woven band and enhance the overall appearance of the band as well as your stage presence.

And finally, but certainly not least, Twisted Motif custom guitar straps are wearable art designed to compliment your instrument and enhance your stage presence through unique patterns, warm textures, and complimentary colors. Stand out from the crowd and express yourself visually on stage.
