SKU Code: NATO/RB/DES22

Ribbed nylon straps are one of the latest innovations in NATO-straps. We first introduced these after a production run for one of our dealers. When we offered a limited number of overrun straps, they quickly became a customer favorite. Due to their popularity, we have expanded the range to include more colors and sizes.

Now available in 18mm, 20mm, 22mm, and 24mm, these straps are an excellent choice if you love the durability and practicality of NATO straps but want something with a slightly different look and feel. Like standard NATO straps, they feature top-quality stainless steel fasteners for durability and reliability.

Specifications

  • Length: 280mm
  • Buckle: Solid 316L Stainless Steel

History and Evolution

The history of the NATO strap began over 50 years ago with a single grey strap. It initially expanded to include colors such as RAF Blue, Black, Navy Blue, the James Bond pattern, and Olive Green. Since then, we have developed an extensive range of variants in regimental colors, Search and Rescue (SAR) orange, national colors, police unit colors, and various camouflage options for specific situations. These straps are frequently used by military units outside the UK and are popular among serving military personnel for a wide variety of military watches.

Extensive Range

Currently, we manufacture nearly 200 different variants in a wide array of colors and sizes from 18mm to 24mm. These straps are available for retail and wholesale customers, and we also offer custom regimental straps. Many of these straps are sold in large quantities through various procurement contracts.

Specifications and Standards

The original specification for the NATO strap was established by the UK Ministry of Defence as Defence Standard 66-47 Issue 2, published on March 30, 2001. Previous specifications included Def Stan 66-47 Issue 1 (November 13, 1992), Def Stan 66-15 (Part 1) Issue 1 (November 30, 1973), and Def Stan 66-15 (Part 2) Issue 1 (January 31, 1974). The current specification data sheet can be downloaded here. Although minor adjustments have been made, the design remains largely consistent, with most bulk contracts requiring stitching around the buckles.

Versatility and Durability

For over forty years, we have supplied these straps to a diverse range of clients, including military personnel, police, emergency services, exploration units, Search and Rescue teams, oil and gas companies, marine salvage and exploration businesses, and organizations operating in tropical or desert locations. The NATO strap's easy maintenance, quick drying time, and resistance to rot and deterioration make it superior to leather or silicone alternatives.

Compatibility

NATO straps are compatible with watches from all leading military contractors, both past and present, such as Marathon, CWC, Citizen, and Pulsar. They are also ideal for robust civilian watches from brands like Seiko, Rolex, and Breitling.

In summary, the NATO strap's unmatched durability, versatility, and secure design make it the preferred choice for a wide range of professional and personal applications.

Absolutely beautiful!
Color: Brown, Color: Brown
I needed a purse for my brown/orange colors to use occasionally. I returned a black one from a different company but I loved the gold handle. I saw this and realized it was perfect! I like the shape of this handle and the texture/color better anyway. Not too big or small, beautiful color and the magnets are great. There’s a zipper compartment inside. The chain is pretty sturdy but it’s removable and you can attach a different handle/strap if you’d like I love the look as I’ve got two Brahmin bags . The texture prevents being to see any small scratches and you can just wipe it off with a damp cloth I’ll carry it with the chain inside but don’t know if I’ll use it. People complain about the quality but seriously? It’s a $30 bag! I think it’s a great value myself. It’s sturdy enough to keep looking very nice and functional for a long time.. If you’re looking for a small clutch, this isn’t it, but it’s not too big either. I love it !

BEAUTIFUL clutch purse! I would buy it again in a heartbeat.
Color: Green
The craftsmanship of the clutch purse is fabulous. The color is a bit darker green and not the obnoxious grass green color. The crocodile pattern is stylish and the finish is shiny and reflects light. The interior is cloth and has a spacious inner zippered compartment on one side. The zipper moves freely. There is an included shoulder chain which attaches on the inside of the clutch. My only negative issue is the plastic wrapping on top of the handles. The plastic was anchored UNDER the metal handles. This yielded some difficulty to get the torn parts of plastic out from under the handles. I only used my fingernails and was able to coax most of it out. I'm hesitant to use any kind of tool to get the remaining plastic film out. The shine on the outside of the bag makes most of the plastic bits unrecognizable. I got this clutch purse for Christmas time. It will hold my lip stick, wallet, keys, and phone just fine. I doubt it would hold much else. But I'm OK with that. I don't carry much stuff with me anyways.
