[fire007]

Hi Tribe,

I was looking for straps high end vintage ones, I found those guys , Wotancraft, anyone bought from them before ?

Any insights ?

They look absolutely sensational, the best I ve seen so far... or at least their photographic skills is great , I would appreciate any real life experience

cheers

photographic skills trumps the actual product im afraid.
imo, the quality is really great, but i wouldnt spend 300usd on them,
the price tag includes the pouches that they come in, which i didn't really need.
heres my pam111 with a wotancraft strap.
if you have the budget, go for it, imo, they are eye catching and i would go all the way in choosing the loudest combination for that price tag.

 

[fire007]

they price from 260usd to 160usd... both range look great

Do you have any Gunny's or Malio ? how would you compare those to Wotancraft ?

 

[Retina]

i had a gunny strap as well, different price ranges however, i paid 160usd for my gunny and 260 for my wotancraft, obviously the quality of the watoncraft was better. as such it might not be a fair comparison.

both would last equally long imo, having said that, at 260usd, i would look for alternatives or go for their cheaper range,
its a little hard to swallow when the strap costs more than the watch.

 

[fire007]

there is wisdom in your words

 

[Retina]

alternatively, go for pre-owned you could get 50% off if you are sharp enough

Their shop is about 10 minutes away from my office. They do amazing leather work, not just straps.
I find them a tad over-priced. As Ret said, I don't need the pouch or the sub keychain thingy. I'd rather just have their straps at a cheaper price.
For that price, I'd rather have a Kostas

Lots of Wotan on Paneristi sales forum
one example:

You really need to go top-dollar tri-fold on Wotancraft to get their best strap. I like their work, and they are comfy to wear. But they always smell a bit moldy after EMS. The bottle opener / key chain they include is made of cheese metal: it deformed to the point of not opening anymore IPA bottles in 2-3 days, LOL. There are other monster strap makers, maybe with a little bit more value for money. Check out Kostas (ok you have), but also Mays Berlin (their Tesei is a monster strap), Dirk, and the Simona special editions.

Thanks Slau, much appreciated

if you save some money, you can take a look for gunny strap, malio strap or tunxx strap, they have good vintage straps

 

[slaughterer62]

I just got a Tunxx. It is thick and comfy, with hand-made buckle, and great value. Looks great, but it has a rubbery feel. Took awhile to get it, as Tunx is small production.

I really like Piotr ammo straps

Here's a Wotancraft on 448. I have a bunch of gunny and a bunch of Malios. IMO Malios are the business for vintage.

 

[fire007]

I have the egiziano and mezzi asalto coming from Malio...
