    Made myself a gray suede nato! =)

    Decided to forgo sleep for a few minutes and throw together a simple nato from recycled hardware and an old jacket.

    It's absurdly soft, and comfortable, to the point of forgetting it's there!

    I love the color, and will probably remake (longer) with stitching, as this one turned out a bit short and is held together by superglue!

    Here she is on my new baby, the OVM. =) What do you guys think?





    Soft!

    Looks really nice! Where'd you get the hardware from?

    Thanks! Hardware was graciously donated from another Nato strap.

    I am having a hell of a time trying to find someone that supplies rectangular rings in small metric sizes..
