We're also ready to make the velcro strap, and since it's a prototype strap let's go for some nice materials combo.

Let the ideas flow, i wanna see some creativity...

Gotta be honest. I'm very tempted to use black lizard/iguana hide and add some red touches.

Give me more ideas...

Wow. Nice to see. Looks great! I couldn't wrap my head around it earlier, but now i can imagine how it will be.

Now that you're talking exotic sports car materials like Alcantara and black/red combi's - which is a superb idea btw - i couldn't stop myself in thinking about black carbon fibre fabric with red stitching/velcro closure or something like that. I don't know if it's a realistic strap material to work with for straps at all.

Personally i would be more than satisfied with a fabric velcro strap in grey or dark blue.

I have brown epi hide but i guess it won't work as cool as red would.

Also, i'm seriously considering starting a project to make custom forged carbon loops for the velcro straps. What do you think ?

It may take a lot of time,may end up expensive considering the small quantities.

Worth the hassle ? Or the cheaper generic plastic loops would do it ?

It's in "my works" thread. Go up the directory "Haute Strapmakerie" and you'll see the thread there, actually many other interesting threads as well.
