are you #dstrapped?

Welcome to the DStrap homepageMy name is Olaf Lugten and I create watch straps with passion. DStrap is a Netherlands based one man business. All my straps are hand and tailor made to your specifications. As such, every DStrap is authentic, unique and completely customized.

Handmade is really handmade. Cutting, stitching, everything from A to Z is carefully prepared by hand (which you can see here.) All leathers are chosen with great care.

Next to working with the best leather hides available, I re-uses vintage army ammunition bags, belts, bags etc. to create unique watch straps. Even clients’ old boots or beloved sneakers can be turned into stunning straps!

Every DStrap is tailored to your needs and are available from 99 euro. The final price depends on the strap, leather, stitching, buckle and dimensions.

I would be happy to answer any questions you have.

With best regards,

Olaf
