    *edit oh, and for the extra cynical: I am in no way shilling or guerrilla marketing your kind ass. Lol

    Isn't it just http://horween.com/ ?

    I've got a half dozen made by them and a few others made by independents using their leather, most comfortable leather straps ever.

    It's Horween, the factory is a mile from my house in Chicago. Strangely enough my favorite Horween made straps are from Janoxxx in the Slovak Republic. I chuckle a little everytime I order one of his straps, the leather travels quite a ways to get cut into a strip and stitched up just to come back to Chicago

    Here is one of Jan's ads

    It's a blast, thanks for asking. The only downside (upside?) is that my company gives me 3 weeks of parental leave which is very dangerous in the middle of watch season...
