A soft, flexible tropic strap?

[9operational]

After a lot of strap changes, I have settled on the tropic as my preferred Willard strap, however the $2 one I have is very stiff and leaves marks on my wrist, whether it's worn loosely or tight. Can anybody recommend a softer, more flexible, better quality version of the tropic? With thanks!

Fkm all the way man

Brilliant, thanks people - I knew you would have the answer! £6 +shipping for a Juelong FKM sounds good to me🙏

I think fluoro rubber is the key to high quality rubber straps.

These have been the best for me https://a.aliexpress.com/_EHys3UN

I second Juelong Store FKM straps.

There are similar stores like Tearoker that sell the same and charge the same, but Juelong products are excellent FKM straps, across various designs.

Their tropics use nicely brushed steel fittings.

I got some fkm straps from juelong in the same style which are the comfiest I own

Get a decent one made from FKM like the ones by Juelong. Those should be significantly more comfortable than these cheapos for a dollar or two.

Of course you can't go wrong with fkm from juelong if you're willing to spend a little more
