WELCOME TO DSTRAP

My name is Olaf Lugten, and I craft custom and handmade watch straps with dedication and passion. DStrap is a one‑man workshop in Alkmaar, the Netherlands, where every strap is made by hand from start to finish. No mass production, just craftsmanship and materials with real character.

Custom Handmade Watch Straps Made by Hand

Each DStrap is built to order and shaped exactly to your specifications. From cutting the materials to the final stitching, every detail is done by hand to create a handmade watch strap that is authentic, unique and personal.

Upcycled Materials for Handmade Watch Straps

I work with premium leathers, but a large part of my craft focuses on upcycling. I repurpose vintage military ammunition bags, belts and other historic materials, giving them a second life as handmade watch straps with character. Even your old boots or favourite sneakers can be transformed into a custom strap with a story of its own.

Sustainable Handmade Watch Straps from the Netherlands

By reusing canvas and leather, each strap reduces waste and gives these materials a new purpose. Every mark, stencil and colour variation reflects the original life of the material, making every handmade watch strap truly one of a kind.
