The Horween Chromexel leather is extrodinary. It is very supple and pliable, without being greasy. The workmanship on the strap is precise. A very nice functional strap. It goes perfectly with my Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical.

Leather Care
Real leather is meant to age and tell a story. Over time your strap will develop patina, subtle markings, and a finish unique to you. While durable, no leather is designed for regular water exposure. If your strap gets wet, allow it to air dry at room temperature. A light leather balm or conditioner may be applied occasionally, though it can slightly deepen the color.

Built From the Best.
A watch strap gets more contact with your skin than almost anything you own. It should be made like it matters. We hand-select leather from tanneries trusted by the world's finest luxury houses — Horween in Chicago, and heritage tanneries across Italy and France. Then we cut, stitch, and finish each strap by hand in our Utah workshop. The stitching, the edges, the feel. Every detail is deliberate, because the watch on your wrist deserves nothing less.

I enjoy the look and feel of this watch band. Leather has always been comfortable to me and this piece is no exception. I recommend Threaded Leather.
Horween English Tan Dublin Leather Watch Strap, Black Thread
Looks great it’s exactly what I was looking for.
Use the strap on a watch I built for my wife. She loves it.
Love the strap. Arrived as expected. Leather is soft and the strap is comfortable right out of the box. Really making the watch pop. Shipping was quick. Nothing but good things to say about the experience.

Horween Black Shell Cordovan Leather Watch Strap, Natural Thread
I have tried some other online watch strap companies and some of the products I received were literally garbage! NOT SO with Threaded Leather!!! I have two straps now, and I can promise you they are QUALITY straps - extremely good looking and comfortable to wear! Trust me…just try one and it won’t be your last!!! Allan
Horween Black Chromexcel Leather Watch Strap, Natural Thread
Very comfortable and looks good.
Horween Natural Chromexcel Leather Watch Strap, Natural Thread
This band and the leather are super high quality. Nothing feels cheap. I especially love the quick release pin.
Horween English Tan Dublin Leather Watch Strap, Natural Thread
The pin that was too short on one side, paid extra for quick release, and then can't use it because it's two short, had to use the old watch pins. Measured it twice and made sure it was 20mm
Horween English Tan Dublin Leather Watch Strap, Natural Thread
Store owner replied: Hi Richard! So sorry for the issues. We'll reach out to you and make sure this gets straightened out.
Soft, great color, almost feels broken in out of the package.
Horween English Tan Dublin Leather Watch Strap, Black Thread
The normal size is large enough for me without being too large. I had some trouble with bands that were too small. Also this one is elegant without trying to be fancy. Just my tempo!
Horween Brown Nut Dublin Leather Watch Strap, Natural Thread
Love this. Customer service was great
Horween English Tan Dublin Leather Watch Strap, Black Thread
It's a decent watch band.
Horween Black Chromexcel Leather Watch Strap, Natural Thread
As a customer since 2019, I couldn’t be happier. The price for this Walnut Hudson watch strap is more than affordable in this day and age for such a thoroughbred, dare I say, an heirloom. From the moment I opened the package, the rich, full grain leather aroma told me this was a quality product. The leather is incredibly supple right out of the box, supplying its user with a soft and velvety feel, making it comfortable from the first wear with no lengthy break-in period. I requested a custom fit and they absolutely nailed it—the proportions are perfect for my Praesidus Type A-11 reproduction. The warm walnut color complements the vintage military aesthetic beautifully, looking like it was made specifically for this watch. The quick-release spring bars are an excellent touch, making strap changes effortless. The craftsmanship, attention to detail, and overall quality exceeded my expectations, and this has completely transformed the look and feel of my watch. I strongly recommend Threaded Leather to anyone looking for a premium handcrafted strap.
Great overall watch strap. It was difficult locating a watch strap in 22mm that was high quality and could match my brass Wicked Watch Co. beauty. Overall highly satisfied with the quality of the leather and supple feel on the wrist.
The leather is so soft and flimsy i cant get the end to go through the loops.
really nice product, good job, will be back soon
Excellent strap, great quality and even better price!
Horween English Tan Hatch Leather Watch Strap, Natural Thread

Great leather watch band! Nicely finished- soft and comfortable fit. Quality company making quality bands. Buy with confidence.
It was a good material but too thin and didn’t fit the watch. I will return it for a refund.

It looks great and is very comfortable.
Horween English Tan Dublin Leather Watch Strap, Black Thread
Love the strap. Shipping was a little slow (it finally shipped after I had to reach out, almost as if my order slipped through the cracks) but no big deal. I love smelling the leather when I wear it, I know that’s goofy but it’s a plus.
Horween English Tan Dublin Leather Watch Strap, Natural Thread
Store owner replied: Hi Jacob! So happy to hear you love the strap. It looks great on your watch. Also, apologies for the delay in shipping. Usually, our turn around times are 3-6 business days so I'm not quite sure why there was a delay. However, we have taken that feedback internally so this issue shouldn't happen again.
Solid experience throughout. Easy ordering and quick delivery. Strap appears to be well constructed and it’s the watch well.
Horween Dublin leather watch strap is as described - good color and texture, correct width and length as ordered. Got here on time. Thanks!
Horween English Tan Dublin Leather Watch Strap, Black Thread
expected the strap to be thicker leather
Horween English Tan Dublin Leather Watch Strap, Natural Thread
Store owner replied: Hi Andy! We totally understand that you'd prefer a thicker strap. We have the option of doing a liner to thicken up the strap. We'll reach out to you to see what we can do to make this happen for you.
Perfect band, soft, supple, looks great, for a watch I built for an upcoming international trip.
Beautiful leather, supple and rich. No significant break in required, it conforms perfectly to your wrist right out of the bag. As always the quality of the leather is superior, the color and craftsmanship is fantastic. I can't express how happy these bands make me, and at a price that cannot be beat (for this level of quality) I opted for the quick release bars this time, because I have several watches that share a 22mm width, but now I think there's a beauty in the simplicity of not having the QR bars. Don't get me wrong, it's well executed and looks great but the band I purchased from these guys without QR is so sleek and beautiful. Subjective, sure, but worth considering. For my next band I think I will also opt for the liner just to experience what the thicker band is like. I have questions as to the durability of these bands under... Harder use. I don't always find myself wearing nice watches in highly dynamic, sometimes kinetic situations but sometimes I do. These bands are good leather and I don't expect they'll fail, but I wonder how they'll fare over time, especially with weather, dirt, sweat, etc. Again, something to consider. Once I have the thicker, lined one to compare, I'll write up my thoughts on how they might fare differently under different conditions, so... Stay tuned? Maybe I should do this on a YouTube video. Get one of these bands for your watch. It will elevate the entire experience of wearing it and you'll be pleased.
For 70$ you would think the leather would be thicker very disappointing
Horween Forest Green Dublin Leather Watch Strap, Natural Thread
Store owner replied: Hello! So sorry to hear you are unhappy with the thickness. We definitely can appreciate that having just the right thickness is important. We will reach out and see if we can get this straightened out for you.
The leather is delaminating… this strap won’t last long. Disappointing for the money. I have $20 Amazon straps that are better.

Store owner replied: Hello! So sorry to hear about this issue. Our straps usually last quite a while. Additionally, I do want to add that our straps aren't laminated so I'm not quite sure what could be causing this issue. We will reach out to you to see if we can get to the bottom of this situation and get it corrected for you.
Perfect look and fit for my antique Illinois watch. High quality and super comfy
