Nylon is by far the best of the 3 material options but none suit all buttons
I have tried all three materials now.Polypro is cheap and hangs your guitar as it should. They are really lightweight. However with T shirts I find that when the strap moved the edges irritated my neck.The “padded” ones are OK. They are still lightweight (130 grams) and are marginally better with the digging into my neck. I wasn’t impressed with the striped one. It looked and felt like the belt you get on cheap ski suit trousers.Then I tried Nylon. These are heavier (180 grams) but are much thicker than the so called padded ones. The material is smooth as silk and feel great against the neck. They have a premium feel to them and I sent all of the others back. I now have a collection of the nylon ones. Downsides? Well they are really smooth. For example with leather straps I used to remove the guitar, leave the strap on my shoulder and attach another guitar. If I try that with these they just slide off my shoulder. I can live with that. I like the fact that when I play I can change guitar position and the strap will easily move.As far as button compatibility goes they work fine with all classic buttons and will go up to the diameter of Dunlop straplock hybrid buttons (they work so well with these that I have left them on some guitars). They don’t work with Ibanez Japan buttons on Jems and JSs and they won’t go anywhere near those flat PRS USA buttons

Great strap

Good strap, but won't fit all instrument types
The strap looks like a quality item. I bought the black version of it. The strap material has a good, soft feel to it. The clips are made out of plastic, so I hope they'll last. The locking mechanism fits my ESP bass really well, but not the Squier jazz bass. I hope this is helpful.

Brilliant (nylon version)
If you want a super-comfortable non-grippy strap that isn't going to detach from the lugs unless you want to, this is it. It's like car seatbelt material, but spongier. The clips are well thought out, very easy to attach and remove if you want, while being pretty much impossible to remove if you don't.Pricey, but worth it. Just wish there were more aesthetic options.

Safe, secure and slinky.
I worried a little that this wouldn't fit on my PRS S2, as the strap buttons are a little larger than on my other guitars, but I needn't have. Fits very snugly (I don't think it would have fit if they were any larger) and wont come off without a concerted effort. The strap itself is really nice and soft. I can comfortably wear it for extended periods without the rub on my neck that I sometimes get from other, stiffer, straps.At just under £25, it isn't the cheapest strap you'll find but, in my opinion it was worth the money. I would definitely buy it again.

Hard to fault, good value for money
It's hard to find anything wrong with this strap really. If you're someone who likes the security of locking straps but doesnt want ugly strap ends dangling off your guitars all the time, this is ideal.The strap itself is pretty run of the mill but performs well. It's made of nice material, is wide enough to be comfortable and adjusts easily when you want it to but doesn't slip if you dont.The locking feature clips easily to all my guitars. I've had reports from friends who say if the strap button is extremely wide it can be a hassle clipping and unclipping, but I haven't had this issue. I've had no issues with the mechanism disengaging when i didn't want it to.Overall would thoroughly recommend, if I ever need a new strap I'll definitely be back for another one of these.
