The longevity of a leather strap depends on the quality of the tanning process and frequency of use. A high-quality alligator or calf leather strap, vegetable-tanned, can last between 2 and 5 years with daily wear, provided it is kept away from prolonged water exposure and regularly conditioned with appropriate leather products. Casati Milano straps carry an 18-month warranty against manufacturing defects.
