Handcrafted Straps
Single Pass Military Green NATO Strap - Ecru | Recycled Polyester
Military green isn't meant to please everyone. It's a deliberate, almost declarative choice — those who make it know what they're looking for on their wrist.
This single pass strap is made from 100% recycled polyester, crafted in Italy with the same attention reserved for the most noble materials. The result is an essential, flat strap that doesn't lift the watch off the wrist like a traditional NATO: the case stays where it should, close to the skin, with the buckle centered under the wrist for real comfort throughout the day.
The one-piece design is not just aesthetic. If a spring bar were to fail, the strap still keeps the watch on your wrist — a concrete, not theoretical, safety feature. The absence of a double keeper eliminates the annoyance of a loose tail: the end tucks into the sliding keeper and disappears.
The military green and ecru combination is calibrated: the contrast is present but not aggressive, working well on both neutral and more elaborate dials.

The joy of little things
Changing your strap should be as simple as changing your shoes. With us, it is.
Every strap has integrated quick-release spring bars: swap it in one gesture, no tools, no risk of scratching the lugs. The same watch shifts mood with the moment.

Milanese Craftsmanship
Every strap is a one-off piece, cut and stitched by hand in our Milan atelier. Saddle stitching gives superior strength, while the edges are finished with seven coats of dye applied by brush, for a longevity that outlasts passing trends.

Frequently asked questions
Can I get it wet without damaging it?
Yes, this strap can be wetted. It is made of Newlife® recycled polyester, obtained from plastic bottles, produced through an Italian supply chain. It is unaffected by sweat or rain.
Does the ecru thread get dirty with use?
Over time it develops a patina, as dust and sweat leave their mark. This is normal and part of the strap's character. I can assure you it is not a defect.
What sizes are available for purchase?
20mm and 22mm. The buckle is in stainless steel in both cases.
How does the single pass system work?
It is a single piece of strap, with no double loop. The end slides through the integrated keeper and stays in place. There is no loose tail flapping on the wrist.
If a spring bar fails, is there a risk of the watch falling off?
No. The strap passes under the case in a single piece, so it still holds the watch on the wrist. This is an added safety feature compared to a classic two-piece strap.
