I need to get a slew of new straps. I have some LM Products straps from Sweetwater. A plain leather one, that's just plain ol brown leather. No stitching around the edges and it's on my Les Paul. I have an imitation croc skin pattern on a Warmoth. I also have a really nice one from them I got from Empire Guitars that seems beefier, with the stitching. But, I'm looking around at some good leather straps to put on a few guitars, including this PRS that's en route. I don't really like the ones with padding and they're kinda poofy for the weight. I'm no pussy...if a guitar is heavy and hurts my shoulder, then I'm just going to take it like a fucking man. Plus, I don't play out, so that isn't necessary....but IF I played out, I'd take it like a man.

Anywho, here's a pic of the one I got from Empire and really dig it, but looking for other brands to check out. I'm pretty sure he marks up the price of the straps fairly high, but won't give out the actual name LM uses so I can find it somewhere else cheaper.

I've been a big fan of Moody straps for years, the hand double stitched Italian leather, is supple and simple, so far very durable...

Buy a length of this, poke holes where you need it. Now no one can sit in with your axe cause the strap only fits you. Bluesman's secret recipe. Don't tell anyone I told you this.
