A standard vintage ISO is the tits though!

The Iso is a good dive strap once its on, but the keepers are stupidly fiddly (especially if you have gloves on). Its too expensive and looks very utilitarian for desk diver duty IMO.

Originals were made from a synthetic rubber composite called "isoprene." Nowadays, they're super-nice rubber that - like most everyone here has already said - is super comfortable.

The Accent is literally the nicest strap I have ever worn. Perfect pliability, looks rad, and wears extremely comfortable. Especially great for those with slightly smaller wrists.tattoo chef wrote:This is why I have switched to a Hirsch Accentbedlam wrote:The Iso is a good dive strap once its on, but the keepers are stupidly fiddly (especially if you have gloves on).
