Favorite summer straps?

Looking to expand my “summer friendly” strap “collection” (currently just an OEM rubber strap)…I have a 176 and would love any recommendations. Pictures would be great as well! Thanks everyone.

I’m a fan of white rubber in the summer.

Try to find double rolled canvas straps, there’s many who makes those. Like them a lot, specially around water sports

My go-to summer straps. Both by Combat straps.

Have couple of oem rubber (green & dark brown) for anything near water.

Just ordered an orange strap at my local boutique for my 372. Scheduled to arrive by FedEx today, just in time for the long weekend here!

It's fun. The blues are off but it sure will feel nice on hot days. The rubber id very soft on the Vanguard. One very very small nick from changing it. It was my first time.

I found the Horus rubber straps to be pretty comfortable, much softer than OEM
