SKU Code: NATO/RB/DES18-2

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.

Great, durable toy!
Style: Donkey&Sloth
My chihuahua tears the stuffing out of her toys, so I needed something different. This toy is perfect and the fact that there are two is even better. There is always one she can find. The size is just right for her to drag around, shake fiercely, and cuddle up to when she is done. She has had them for about three months and they are very durable. Other toys would have been torn up by now.

Hana approved, gold star toy
Color: Original Pack, Color: Original Pack
This is, according to Amazon, our 11th set in 3 months. According to Hana, our shiba/chi mix, this toy is immaculate. Crunch score is a 10/10 and the squeak? Don't get her started. High pitched, easy to squeak and protected by just enough crunch and fabric that it actually lasts. In fact, she will tear the toy open before the squeaker gives up. This may seem like a small feat, however most toys last 12-30 minutes before the teefies take the squeaker out of commission. Lambchops last about 15 minutes before the squeaker gives in and fluff decorates the floor. The only reason we buy so many so often is because 1. The teefies do eventually puncture and the moment that happens she guts the poor Claw instantly. And 2. She has about 11 teefies, so the mouth gets kinda icky and due to the crunch, washing these kind of sucks- retains a lot of water and cant dry. So we replace them often even if she doesn't get to the gutting. 10/10. Its her favorite toy. And we've tested a lot of toys.
