Hirsch Performance Straps
Discussion
Anyone had any experience with these?
Look interesting but certainly aren't cheap. Look like they might solve a few of the issues I've had with leather straps.

I think Andy Tims has one....
From what I have heard and having owned many Hirsch straps (albeit different ranges) they do offer excellent value for money, so should be ok.

Excellent value for money? £70 seems an awful lot to me so they must be very good!From what I have heard and having owned many Hirsch straps (albeit different ranges) they do offer excellent value for money, so should be ok.

I've got a Hirsch Terra which was £40ish and I must admit it's very nice.

The branded straps are just laughably expensive.
Thanks for posting, it certainly looks the part. Could you confirm the exact model (tiger, ayrton etc.)?
Good to hear it's a bit less 'sweaty' than a normal leather strap, that's what I was hoping you'd say. Does it feel well built? My worry was that the leather portion might feel a bit cheap.
I'm very tempted by the red/blue Tiger straps.
Cheers

That one is a 22mm tiger in brown with the matte steel buckle
It certainly feels well put together, the rubber part comes up around the side of the leather so protects it a bit more if that makes sense
Finding my bracelet to be a little too shiny for every day wearing. I keep worrying about it's extreme shininess attracting unwanted attention and am thinking a leather strap would help with that.

Thanks for your mini-review.
I'm surprised how much leather watch straps cost.
Compare a watch strap to a belt. How can M&S sell a leather belt for 10-20 pounds, and Armani/Prada atc., are ~ 100-200? Its just a leather strap with a buckle, and a watch strap is a smaller version of a belt, less materials, similar workmanship?
I suppose they just sell less of them, so need a bigger mark up.
