Toshi Straps Omdömen 

I have had Toshi straps on various different watches over the years, and have just received the latest.

As was expected Rich was an absolute pleasure to deal with, helping to make sure I ordered the correct length for achieving my preferred fit, and his attention to detail is second to none.

The strap arrived bang on time, fitted both the watch and my wrist perfectly, and the quality of the leather, and the quality of manufacture was as usual right out of the top drawer.

I really couldn’t recommend Toshi Straps highly enough.

I think Rich's straps are absolutely first class. I've been buying them for more than 10 years. Beautiful colours and stitching options. If you want an artisinal, chunky, unique strap for a big chunky watch these are for you! If you want a dainty, tapering croc/gator for your dress watch then maybe not so much. I think these work best on U-Boat, Panerai, Breitling, chunky boutique divers, etc. It takes a bold watch to stand up to these beasts! Don't expect delicate, they are well finished and luxurious but rustic and handmade. I'm obsessed with them! I have way too many!

First class product, excellent customer service, highly recommended. I wanted a leather strap for my 45mm Planet Ocean, a big nail needs a big hammer. The Toshi Vintage Black leather with black stitching is the strap that the large Planet Ocean deserves. I give the highest recommendation for Rich's communication, timeline to delivery and high quality product. Buying lesser quality products is a false economy. If you have a watch you love, get yourself a Toshi strap.

Purchased 2 Panerai strap’s in November. Arrived today.

Absolutely blown away by the quality and fit.

Buy with confidence!

I got a beautiful goat skin Toshi strap today. Wonderfully soft leather, excellent craftsmanship, arrived early. Good communication too.

I've ordered three straps from Toshi Straps and I've been thrilled with the results every time. They look stunning, and the craftsmanship shows.

I have purchased 5 straps from Toshi, so felt that a review was in order. I cannot fault Rich's craftsmanship and combined with a superb range of hides his straps are absolutely outstanding. So far I have sampled buffalo, horween, kudu, nubuck, and standard veg tanned leather. All are extremely comfortable and with a bit of advice, the perfect fit. All of the straps that I ordered arrived when expected and communications throughout were excellent. Cannot recommend highly enough and it's great to have a UK based strap maker now that "the thing that shall not be named" has made EU purchasing difficult. Wouldn't go anywhere else these days. Thanks again for the straps and service!

I found Toshi Straps through a colleague and what a recommendation it was. Rich is totally on the ball and keeps you informed all the way from first placing the order to receipt of delivery. I went for Tangerine Dream and I certainly wasn't disappointed. It was better than the original Panerai strap that I had.
If you are in the market for a watchstrap don’t waste time looking at all the alternative companies out there. Go straight to Rich @ Toshi straps.

Responsive customer service from the purchase phase to the delivery. Had some issues with my credit card company and Rich offered alternative order and payment method. When international mailing was an issue due COVID lockdown, I was duly kept posted of the developments.
Product description on the website is reflective of the actual and final production strap. Good quality leather and fine workmanship.
I'm so eager to change my straps now and give my old watch a new lease of life.
Online purchases are generally devoid of any interaction with the seller. However, the exchange I had with Rich gave me the confidence that someone was actively looking into my order. Overall, a great and positive buying experience.

High quality handmade product and great customer service. I have 2 of these straps and both are great quality and comfortable to wear. The website is very clear when ordering but if in doubt you can email Rich direct with any questions, he is always quick in coming back to you. Quick turnaround time well within what was stated. Already thinking about ordering a 3rd. Highly recommended.

I recently purchased a strap for a watch of mine from Toshi-Straps. The entire experience was relaxing and you are kept informed of what is happening and the timelines. I received an email informing me that the straps were ready and when they were posted. I received the straps late but this was as a result of delays at Royal Mail. The straps are fantastic and I am truly elated with my purchase. There is real quality there, the straps fit the watch perfectly and is a wonderful fit on the arm. I have no qualms about referring Toshi-Straps at all!

Great product and a great customer experience! Nothing but positive feedback for Toshi straps.

Bought two in three months after spending many months researching and sourcing bespoke leather straps for an Oris Aquis...

The online order process is very straight forward with lots of choice and easy access to info and tips.... Both orders were placed with an expected four week eta.. and both orders were turned around in half the time. Rich is very helpful and you can tell how much he cares about his customers and the product.

I love the finished product, the straps look and feel great and are everything I was looking for. Definitely recommend!

Simply the best straps in the world. Don't search any more!

Ordered two bespoke leather watch straps for a Tudor Heritage Black Bay.
Richard provided great guidance throughout the ordering process from advising on the strap size in relation to my wrist measurements coupled to the Black Bays dimensions.
The straps have exceeded expectations, go and see for yourself on the Toshi strap gallery.
Coupled with great communication, I would not hesitate to recommend Toshi Straps.

I made my first purchase with Toshi Straps in 2009 and already owns 7 pieces from them. The quality is awesome, and the choice of leathers, colors, stitching... is huge. Richard is always available for all questions, he works fast and accurately. It is always a pleasure to work with him. I will definitely carry on purchasing at Toshi Straps.

I wanted a top quality strap for my tudor black bay and that's what I got! I had looked on the site and was undecided between 2 colours, I emailed Rich, told him which watch it was going on and asked for his opinion.
He suggested the "gunpowder" so I went with that.
I was kept updated from the off and the strap arrived earlier than planned. Rich is clearly passionate about his work and the quality is outstanding. I cannot recommend these straps enough.

Before I start I would urge you to read the ridiculous comment/review from an awkward customer that has wrongly lowered Rich from Toshi's 5 star review! Utter nonsense and some people really are impossible to deal with. Anyway onto my review...

After purchasing MANY straps over the years, looking for that perfect combination of colour, texture and comfort, I've finally found a favourite strap for my Panerai. It makes you realise that quality over quantity is so important.

I was looking for a strap to match my redwing boots and belt. I ordered a "Tempest" from Rich with natural stitching, it's a beautiful subtle burgundy brown, and smells fantastic. It really needed very little wearing before it started to soften up and become extremely comfortable. The stitching, length and hole positions are all spot on. There's hundreds of thousands of "hand made" straps on ebay and etsy which are clearly mass produced and bad quality tough leather (trust me I've bought a few), and this really is no comparison.
Having so many size, colour and buckle options, it really does mean your getting a truly unique strap.
With excellent contact from Rich straight after my purchase, and then again after receiving my strap, it fills you with confidence knowing that a real honest person has made your custom accessory piece.

Great value for money knowing what work goes into making them, and you can wear with pride knowing your sporting the best out there.

Thanks again Rich and I'll be back for another soon.

I recently bought a citizen eco drive Star Wars with a leather strap. On delivery I found the strap to be poorly made and far too short, so over Christmas I set out to find something better. The watch was bought to remember my dad who passed away in October, he took me to see Star Wars on my 8th birthday so this seemed appropriate. During my search for a bespoke strap I came across Toshi Straps.The website was beautifully designed, simple and clean but with obvious attention to detail. I had questions which Rich answered personally and quickly and I soon decided to place an order. The only difficulty encountered was deciding on the leather and stitching. Expecting a delivery in three weeks I was delighted to receive the strap in just a few days & it is as beautiful as I had hoped and expected it to be. Thank you Rich - you are a craftsman of the highest quality and a rare find in today’s world. Stay safe

I’ve been buying from Toshi for a while now, it’s saved me a fortune giving my timepieces a new look rather than buying more expensive watches. The workmanship is top quality as is the leather Rich makes them with, it’s great to find a true artisan who is passionate about what he does. If you are looking for a new leather watch strap I can’t recommend Toshi Straps highly enough.

Over the last 7 years I have bought 5 custom made leather straps of varying sizes from Toshi Straps. Each piece has arrived as expected some much better in the "flesh" than the online photos are able to do justice. Definitely a watch strap maker that I would recommend for owners of Panerai, Christopher Ward, Seiko Divers and my daily drivers - my Fortis, who are looking for sturdy leather straps of character. My first set has aged well and my most recent - a buffalo hide "cyclone" is the best so far. The online photos don't do it justice. Great to support British Businesses, keep up the good work Rich.
