How Do Your Special Order Deployment Straps Work?

 

 

These items are designed specifically for OEM deployment straps that usually do not come with any adjustment options, in a lot of cases the OEM straps are rubber and need to be cut to size, great if you get it right the first time.

 

However, a problem we have is that our wrists tend to swell during the day and throughout the seasons of the year, this can render our straps very uncomfortable and it extreme cases require a new OEM item to be purchased at £100's of pounds. 

 

 

Enter my custom order Horween straps, when ordering the three-piece item, you will gain three adjustment options in one strap. 

 

 

Let’s say both sides of your existing strap combined measures 150mm, and we have two pieces measuring 75mm. 

 

 

We take this measurement (75mm) and subtract 4mm giving 71mm then add 4mm giving 79mm 

 

 

We make Three pieces at a length of 71mm, 75mm, and 79mm. This allows us a 4mm adjustment up and down from the original length of 150mm 

 

 

71mm + 79mm = 150mm

71mm + 75mm = 146mm

75mm + 79mm = 154mm 

 

 

One strap three pieces, one price, adjustability (priceless)

We will require photos of the unopened packaging for damaged items and of the damage to the item, we will then submit a claim to Royal Mail and process your claim. 

 

 

 

How do I Measure My Strap for Replacement? 

 

 

A common mistake here is people will measure from the tip to top, this can give us an incorrect reading especially when considering deployment straps, you should always measure from Pin to Pin this gives a truer reading; when it’s a standard strap measure from Pin to the tip of the strap. 

 

 

 

Why Is My Strap Slightly Shorter That What I Ordered?

 

 

This is for two reasons, when a strap is stitched it will shrink slightly this, however, is desirable because after a period of wear as the strap breaks in it will stretch, if each strap was the perfect length after stitching it will fall out of specification quickly.
