    I managed to switch the strap on my polerouter.

    Really like how the suede turns out.

    Enjoy!!! 20200911_115846.jpg 20200911_115711.jpg 20200911_115743.jpg 20200911_115935.jpg



    With its "muggle" cousin:

    Another strap that I think would look good, but turns out so so:

    Personally, I like the so-so strap, the color of the dial and the strap really blend and pop, maybe the stitching in a beige instead of the orange brown color. The old hobby, are you a sneakerhead? Have some Yeeezys too?

    Appreciate the input!!
    I'll definitely put the "golden aged" strap for my next rotation.

    I never quite on board on the Yeezys' train, just have one in my whole collection (and it didn't get much foot time as well) wkwk.

    IMO adidas in general is kinda declining. 20200911_125224.jpg

    Strap is a nice match for the dial, which I find is often a good way to go. Looks good.

    Slow and steady is the name of the game now.
