Straps are raw cut from Vegetable Tanned Vachetta cowhide leather from North American hides with a finished topside and pasted back. The edges of the strap are burnished and an application of Resolene Leather Protectant is applied to aid against wear.
Options: Choose the width, length, and hardware tone.
Color:   Natural Vachetta (will patina over time)
Width:   Approximately 3/8", 1/2", 3/4", or 1"       Hardware:  Silver Tone, Gold Tone or Antique Brass/Bronze Tone
Length:  Measuring is essential in choosing the correct length. (See
Measuring for the Correct Strap Length" below.)   
Measuring for the Correct Strap Length: Measuring is essential for the correct fit as these are not adjustable straps. Please include the hardware when measuring for the total length. If you order a strap 34"-36" long, the total length, including the hardware at either end, will be between 34"-36" long. Please measure at least twice before you place your order as returns can not be accepted at this time.

The strap length descriptions below are generalizations and are provided as a guide only. Measuring is essential for the correct fit. 
12"-29" - Short handle straps are used to carry handbags either as a top-handle (carried with your hand or over your arm), or, as a tight-fitting hobo-style strap. If you're a petite person, a shorter strap may work well to hold your bag tightly under your arm. Keep in mind, when attaching a short handle strap to a hobo style handbag, the weight of the bag will change the shape of the bag and increase the drop length quite a bit, sometimes double, so be sure to test this on your handbag.
30"-39" - Shoulder straps are generally in the 30-inch range and are typically used to carry bags closely under your arm and close to your body. This is a popular length because the strap can also function as a top-handle for other bag styles, such as a tote. 
40"-49" - Longer shoulder straps are generally in the 40-inch range and allow your bag to hang down near your hip when worn over your shoulder (depending on how tall you are, of course). For the petite person, this length can often be used to wear your bag across your body, or often referred to as the "cross body" position. When using as a cross body strap, this will have the top of your handbag sitting near your waist, depending on your height, weight, and clothing. For the perfect fit, always double check your measurements. 
50"-59" - Crossbody/Messenger straps are generally in the 50-inch range. This type of strap allows your bag to be worn securely over your head so that the strap rests on your shoulder and the bag crosses your chest then sits around your hip area on the opposite side of your body.
