Re: So Did I Select the Best Strap??

I think you got the best one straight off. The warm tone and suede texture make a nice contrast with the cool colours and sharp lines, and the orange stitch picks up the hands nicely. I'd say full orange would be too much for all but the loudest days, and navy wouldn't give enough contrast to really set it off. So, for me, this one is perfectly judged!
