Phoenix G10 Straps: Welcome to the best NATO-style straps money can buy.

What they are:

We consider the Phoenix G10 to be the modern take on the classic tactical strap - The collector’s choice for authenticity to compliment military and professional vintage timepieces. While other manufacturers make high quality NATO-style straps, Phoenix is the only supplier of the British Ministry of Defense Standard (DefStan) 66-15 equipment, approved for military use.

Since 1978, Phoenix G10 straps have been produced to strict government specifications with the highest quality 1mm thick nylon, mated to irremovable steel buckles. These straps begin their missions stiff, but soften and mold to your wrist over time. They feature a dense, tight weave that can be repaired in the field with a basic lighter, should the strap fray under heavy use. Like many iconic designs, the more they are worn, the better they will look. Phoenix G10s are rot-resistant, hypoallergenic, and they can be swapped-out without tools. 

What they are not:

Mass-produced and built to cost requirements in sweatshops.
