SKU Code: NATO/RB/DES22

Ribbed nylon straps are one of the latest innovations in NATO-straps. We first introduced these after a production run for one of our dealers. When we offered a limited number of overrun straps, they quickly became a customer favorite. Due to their popularity, we have expanded the range to include more colors and sizes.

Now available in 18mm, 20mm, 22mm, and 24mm, these straps are an excellent choice if you love the durability and practicality of NATO straps but want something with a slightly different look and feel. Like standard NATO straps, they feature top-quality stainless steel fasteners for durability and reliability.

Specifications

  • Length: 280mm
  • Buckle: Solid 316L Stainless Steel

History and Evolution

The history of the NATO strap began over 50 years ago with a single grey strap. It initially expanded to include colors such as RAF Blue, Black, Navy Blue, the James Bond pattern, and Olive Green. Since then, we have developed an extensive range of variants in regimental colors, Search and Rescue (SAR) orange, national colors, police unit colors, and various camouflage options for specific situations. These straps are frequently used by military units outside the UK and are popular among serving military personnel for a wide variety of military watches.

Extensive Range

Currently, we manufacture nearly 200 different variants in a wide array of colors and sizes from 18mm to 24mm. These straps are available for retail and wholesale customers, and we also offer custom regimental straps. Many of these straps are sold in large quantities through various procurement contracts.

Specifications and Standards

The original specification for the NATO strap was established by the UK Ministry of Defence as Defence Standard 66-47 Issue 2, published on March 30, 2001. Previous specifications included Def Stan 66-47 Issue 1 (November 13, 1992), Def Stan 66-15 (Part 1) Issue 1 (November 30, 1973), and Def Stan 66-15 (Part 2) Issue 1 (January 31, 1974). The current specification data sheet can be downloaded here. Although minor adjustments have been made, the design remains largely consistent, with most bulk contracts requiring stitching around the buckles.

Versatility and Durability

For over forty years, we have supplied these straps to a diverse range of clients, including military personnel, police, emergency services, exploration units, Search and Rescue teams, oil and gas companies, marine salvage and exploration businesses, and organizations operating in tropical or desert locations. The NATO strap's easy maintenance, quick drying time, and resistance to rot and deterioration make it superior to leather or silicone alternatives.

Compatibility

NATO straps are compatible with watches from all leading military contractors, both past and present, such as Marathon, CWC, Citizen, and Pulsar. They are also ideal for robust civilian watches from brands like Seiko, Rolex, and Breitling.

In summary, the NATO strap's unmatched durability, versatility, and secure design make it the preferred choice for a wide range of professional and personal applications.

Fun Christmas Sweatshirt
Color: 02 Green, Size: Large
I really like this sweatshirt. It was listed as men's so I ordered the large. The sleeves are pretty long, which I really like. Otherwise it fits slightly baggy, but I typically wear a women's large so I ordered the large hoping for a little bit oversized. The material is typical for what a normal sweatshirt is, but is a little more lightweight, which I like. It being a touch thinner allows for easier layering and not peeling it off halfway through the day. The graphic is nice, the colors are bold and crisp. I love Christmas and love having tons of different themed clothing to wear, so I'm super excited to add this to my stash.

Great
This Holiday sweatshirt is great, It's made great with soft materials. It fits perfectly not tight and not bulky. It's warm and can be worn over a t-shirt or a long sleeve shirt when it's cold outside. It doesn't twist or ride up. The design is well made and looks great. The colors are bright and look nice. It's great for the holidays but after they're over I'm going to keep wearing this because I like it. It's a great price because with proper care this sweatshirt will last for a long long time.

Quality Shirt!
Size: Medium, Color: Black Orange
A good quality shirt with an embroidered pattern. The fit was right on the arms and shoulders but ran big in the waist area. The fit really depends on your build. The price was fair for this quality, highly recommend!
