Not the same design. I don't have an Erika's but I have a few of the CNS versions that will sit unused. I can't get any of them to go small enough to fit...

the paratrooper one can be adjusted. I bought one of the MN ones before the corona hit, it’s slightly too big but I really like it and am planning to buy more if that will help the company survive.

I'm a supporter of CNS - have bought from them many times. But I was just trying to answer the question asked - if it was the same as Erika's, and they aren't. If they adjusted the same way Erika's do, they would work for me, but these don't.

I have found CNS natos to be quite good. In comparing to my TF natos, I think the heat sealed construction is up to snuff-- probably made in the same factory, albeit TF natos weave is far superior.
I can't stand any natos that are stitched however so can't comment on their seatbelt natos.

I wouldn't go near any of their leather goods as well 😒

Haven’t seen a NATO that’s made better than a Luminox branded NATO. Great for divers ( only come in 22-23-24 )

Fishing with NATO straps has them needing a wash in the washing machine afterwards and cheap straps don’t last that long. Usually the buckle holes that fray the most.

Just received a few M&N straps. Unlike CNS they are made to size. Stretch to get on but once on fit snug and seem a bit more comfortable a fabric than CNS.
Even opted for the Blood group engraving
My new favourite strap.

Even went the Lume

The standard ones are the same quality as any other cheapo - hence "Cheapest Nato Straps" ....

But wouldn't you prefer to support a small business, rather than a conglomerate who are forcing their sick employees to work in crowded conditions right now?

I have one on today that I have had in rotation for about 3 years now. But probably worn less than 50 times.
Upon this inspection, it is probably about time for it to be replaced. It is starting to look a bit grubby, by no fault of its own I suppose.


For the price, I'm definitely not complaining.

Anyone else who bought during the sale received theirs yet? Still waiting here in California - got the ship notification on March 25. Didn't upgrade to tracking though

I am still waiting too but I did get an email telling me they were inundated with orders so there was a delay and then a second saying they were posted. I didn't upgrade postage either, I am sure it won't be long.

I get the impression that most carriers are under some pressure at this time.

Yeah, just wondering if I should be on the lookout here as our package room is getting overfilled as a lot of people are either out of town or probably just not picking up their packages. But I figure if someone else in the US has theirs, I'll start spelunking 😀

I also ordered on 3/20 and haven’r received my order in Virginia yet either. Sure could use the modicum of excitement a few strap changes would bring.

Anyone a fan of the movie A Christmas Story? I feel like Ralphie checking the mail every day for his Little Orphan Annie decoder pin.

The CNS suede is, in fact, of surprisingly good quality. I dont have experience with the Hodinkee suede, but qual is certainly on par or better than others charging multiples higher.


very nice.....great paring......some of those majeteks are still pretty affordable. i have to get one.

Watch out for Cheapest natostraps.
They do not follow Swedish legislation to cancel a purchase and get the money back. According to Swedish law, I have the right to cancel a purchase within 3 years and get the money back if the product is incorrect. I also advertised the item within 2 months of purchase which is a requirement, but that time can be extended. Never again will I buy anything from that company. See picture of the band I bought
