NATO Strap in Recycled Polyester Newlife® — Dark Brown
SKU: N10-DBR-DBR-20
Not all choices are visible. This one can be felt under your fingertips: a compact, dense fabric with the tactile texture that military-grade nylon can offer when carefully crafted. The dark brown isn't a compromise—it's a precise choice, neutral enough to complement any dial, yet decisive enough to have its own character.
The material is 100% recycled polyester, produced in Italy. This isn't a marketing detail: it affects the final texture, the color retention over time, and the controlled rigidity that distinguishes a serious military strap from just any other. The 316L stainless steel buckle and loops complete the picture—no compromises on durability where it matters most.
Compatible with 20mm and 22mm cases, it fits most sports watches and field watches without forcing. A tool, first and foremost. With a conscience.

WHAT WE DID
Milano Straps has always been mindful of sustainability and of the ways in which a luxury product should be made and distributed, and has decided, in its own small way, to help grow an Eco-Luxury Positive economy.
We have recently launched the MSLabStraps line, a new series of eco-friendly NATO fabric straps made by recycling post-consumer plastic bottles collected in Northern Italy.
With one recycled plastic bottle, two MSLabStraps NATO straps are made.
Through a mechanical, not chemical, recycling process, certified 100% Made in Italy along its entire fully traceable supply chain, the plastic in the bottles is shredded and turned into high-quality, high-performance recycled polyester yarns for textile use.
Producing 1 kg of Newlife®, compared with the same quantity of virgin polymer, allows a 60% reduction in energy consumption, a 32% reduction in CO2 emissions and a 94% reduction in water use
