Materials & Build
Crafted from genuine suede leather, this strap features a matte finish that avoids the shine of polished leather. The underside is lined with a smooth leather layer to provide a barrier against skin moisture. Each strap uses reinforced perimeter stitching to ensure the layers remain secure during daily wear. The hardware is made from 316L stainless steel, which resists corrosion and maintains its finish. Because this is a natural material, the suede will develop a unique patina over time, darkening slightly and becoming even more supple as it adapts to your movements.

Sizing & Fit
The Suede Leather Retro Watch Strap features a standard length of 120mm for the long section and 80mm for the buckle section. This sizing comfortably fits wrist circumferences between 160mm and 205mm. The strap thickness is approximately 3mm, making it substantial enough for dive watches but thin enough to slide under a shirt cuff. Please measure the distance between your watch lugs in millimeters to ensure you select the correct width for a snug fit.

FAQ
Can I wear this strap while exercising?
Suede is a porous material that absorbs moisture. While it is durable for daily wear, we do not recommend it for heavy exercise or swimming. Sweat can darken the leather and affect the texture over time. For active use, consider a silicone or nylon alternative from our collection.
How do I clean and maintain the suede?
To keep the strap looking fresh, use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dust. If it gets slightly wet, let it air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Avoid using heavy oils or waxes, as these will flatten the soft texture of the suede.
Does it work with the Samsung Galaxy Watch?
Yes, this strap is compatible with most Samsung Galaxy Watch models that use standard spring bars. Check your specific model lug width, usually 20mm or 22mm, to ensure a perfect match. It provides a sophisticated look that transitions your smartwatch from the gym to the office.
Will the color rub off on my skin or clothes?
We use high-quality dyes that are set during the tanning process. While it is rare for color transfer to occur, we recommend avoiding contact with light-colored clothing during the first few days of wear if the strap becomes damp. Once broken in, the color remains stable.
