These Zulu straps are crafted from a single piece of saddle-grade leather, featuring a robust design with chunkier, rounded keepers and buckles compared to NATO straps. This distinct feature sets them apart from other military-style counterparts.

Design and Historical Association

The Zulu strap design evokes a sense of historical association, inspired by traditional pre-NATO strap options. Representing a modern iteration of the timeless fabric strap design, these high-quality saddle leather straps are popular among private buyers as well as military and law enforcement personnel.

Differences Between NATO and Zulu Straps

Many buyers inquire about the primary differences between NATO and Zulu straps. Essentially, the main distinctions lie in the buckles and keepers. Zulu straps feature rounder and thicker buckles, while NATO straps have thinner, more rectangular buckles. Additionally, NATO straps include an extra strap that slides through two buckles, resulting in two layers of leather under the watch. In contrast, a Zulu strap has a single layer, allowing the watch to sit lower on the wrist compared to a NATO strap.

Saddle Leather vs. Regular Leather

Saddle leather, an elite form of leather primarily used in equestrian gear, is renowned for its durability, strength, and water resistance. Derived from cow or horse hides, it undergoes meticulous tanning and finishing processes to yield a robust and enduring material. Although not scarce, saddle leather commands a premium status due to its exceptional quality.

Key Characteristics of Saddle Leather:

  • Strength: Saddle leather is known for its robustness, capable of withstanding heavy usage without stretching, cracking, or breaking, ensuring longevity and reliability.

  • Water Resistance: Its inherent water-resistant nature ensures it remains dry and well-maintained even when exposed to the elements, making it ideal for watch straps.

  • Resistance to Wear and Tear: The combination of durability and strength equips saddle leather to endure rigorous usage, rendering it highly resistant to signs of wear and tear over time.

  • Distinctive Patterns and Marks: Through meticulous tanning and finishing processes, saddle leather acquires unique patterns and marks, giving each strap a unique aesthetic appeal.

  • Flexibility: Despite its robustness, saddle leather exhibits remarkable flexibility, conforming effortlessly to the wrist while retaining its structural integrity.

  • Color Variation: Saddle leather's coloration varies depending on the tanning technique employed, offering a spectrum from darker to lighter hues, adding to its visual allure.

These characteristics collectively elevate saddle leather to a highly coveted material, prized for its unparalleled combination of strength, durability, and aesthetic charm, making it one of the top choices for high-end watch straps.

A true classic
Size: 7, Color: Maple Suede
One of my favorite shoes ever! Been wearing these since the 90's. They have changed a few things since then but I'd say the overall quality is still great. They fit true to size and are very comfortable right out the box. These are one of the most versitile pairs of shoes you can own. They go with almost any outfit. This time around I purchased the sand and beeswax colorways. If you've never owned a pair I highly recommend these.

Clark's Wallabee's are the best shoes ever made!
I was looking for a new pair of shoes, after one of my Clarks casual shoes (made in india) literally split in half. It only had 8 months of use! I was so angry, so much so that as a loyal Clark's customer I vowed to move on to another brand of shoe. So I began my search, and search, and search... I just couldn't find any pair of shoe that exited me as much as Clark's did. I began to reminisce on my first pair of Clark's that started it all. The Wallabees. The quality in craftsmanship, the nice thick leather, the stitching, and the indestructible weird looking jelly soles. These things could take a hit. I mean I wore them consistently for two years and they just wouldn't budge. I eventually needed something different, so I put them in the closet; only to come out when ever a pair of shoe wore out and I needed a something while I made another purchase. After about 2 years of that I realize I shouldn't be buying more shoes I should be wearing my wallabees. So I wore them for several more years until I finally decided its was time to part... What a mistake. Here I had a pair a shoes that lasted me almost a decade I parted away for no real good reason. It took me many more years of wearing other Clark's and other brands to come to this realization. The Wallabee's are the best shoes ever made! I broke my vow of not buying Clark's after that indian made piece of crap, and decided to buy these. To my surprise the wallabee's are no longer made in England or Ireland, but instead made in China! I was sceptical as to how great the quality may be. I mean I lost faith in Clark's after all. But after careful inspection, these shoe's look, smell, and feel just like the originals. The craftsmanship looks the same as well (a little more modern support). I did some research and turns out China has one of Clark's best shoe factory in the world. I can not judge these shoes by where is was made, but how they fare out with the old ones. So far I'm very very happy! I will wear these and put it to the test of time, and see if they will go for almost a decade as my originals did. At this point they once again take their place as my number one favorite pair of shoes.
