from Ace Frehley to Neko Case
The lightning bolt design has been popular and has remained a mainstay since the 1970s.
Double-ply leather ends (on both ends) are a step up from all the cheap straps widely available. Putting these thick pieces over the buttons proved a bit tricky, though, and could confuse a newbie (I would imagine this is also true for the other Fender-branded straps in this price range). I simply unscrewed the buttons to do that, and so far the result has been secure enough not to require even putting washers over the holes (simple metal washers being my approach to strap locking) the leather ends are tight enough as it is.
This strap comes close enough to my favourite straps (homemade ones from car seatbelts), but not quite there yet.

Best quality in the nylon strap range
Although the body of this strap is made of nylon, the ends are made of leather which vastly increase the quality of it compared to 100% nylon straps. The tight leather ends makes it feel solidly connected to your guitar and you should have no worries about it unbuttoning during use. It feels very light also compared to completely leather straps which might suit some users also.

Not too shaby!
It isn't the most comfortable thing in the world, but it is a nylon strap so you should kind of expect it. It's pretty similar to a seatbelt in case someone was looking for a reference.
That being said though, it's affordable, sturdy, and keeps your guitar well held. I can't complain, I'd buy it again

Short, but does the job
I ordered this strap to complement my Hofner Shorty Deluxe, and it does in a way. The thing is, it is short. I can play the guitar, but it has no extra length in order to try and fix the head dive issue common on traveler guitars.
Other than that, quality seems OK, usability OK. It is just an average product, really. Not bad, not amazing, but does the job.

A great strap for my needs.
I have tried some expensive and fancy straps., but for me these stile of strap is best: very comfortable and extremely good considering the price. It's been a while since I bought this one and it is still as new.

Useful and looks cool.
Well made guitar strap which looks cool.
Highlights:
Areas where the strap attaches to the strap buttons looks and feels very sturdy.
The lightning bolt looks very well made and is actually cooler in person than on the pictures!
Would buy again.

Super
What can I say? : super nice design. Good value for money. The only problem is that it can be scratchy when you play without clothes, but that is because of the material, and can be a problem of all straps.
Also if you are a mega punk who plays guitar super low, I can advice you not to buy it, because that strap isn't so long.
For the rest who play guitar at a normal height I can totally advice you to buy it

Basic strap, good quality.
It's a guitar strap, not much to be said. Lightning bolt is stitched on well, have had no issue with it for the past few years. Only minor issue is that it's a little on the short side.
