A really nice vintage looking strap
I bought the strap just for it's vintage looks, cause I'm a Tweed fan. But even after selling the guitar I bought it for, I kept the strap for my main guitar, and I prefere it to other much more expensive leather ones.
The material (some kind of wool, like tweed/twill originally should be) is really thin, but the strap is very comfortable non the less. It sits nicely on the shoulder and, being soft and made of natural fibers, doesn't scratch my neck like nylon straps do.
The nature of the material makes it stretch a bit under the weight of the guitar, but it's like this with all the other straps made of natural materials.
What I especially love about it, is that it somehow sticks a bit to the clothes, and doesn't slide around under the weight of the guitar (unless you want it to, of course).
The leather pieces at both ends are surprisingly durable - even after a year of constantly putting them on and off, they still hold very well.
It doesn't get five stars because of two things.
The quality is not top notch, there are some (almost unnoticable) flaws on the stitching of the leather - and in my book five stars are for hand made, perfectly taylored straps.
The second is that it uses an ugly black plastic length regulator - given the vintage looks they should have used a chromed metal one.

Good basic strap
I have two of these which I use for my squier jaguar and P bass. They're comfortable and easy to adjust. The yellow and brown colour scheme is something of an acquired taste, I personally like it but others might have another opinion. The strap is pretty thin and can sometimes get wrapped up, which is not a big deal but a little inconvenient. I recommend this product to fans of classic fender - style accessories.

Decent stuff!
It looks classy and suits perfectly with my Strat and its case. It's a quality strap that doesn't provide too much comfort, but you can't really expect that if you check the price tag. However, it does its job and looks good. Works just fine with a Strat!

Light weight strap
High quality and nice tweed strap but compared to Fender Weightless straps this is much thinner fabric. The Weightless Strap is much thicker and more flexible material which feels more comfortable.

Nice and pretty good strap for the price
Elegant companion for my strat. It is very nice, light and soft. It holds my strat very well does not slipping, the adjustment is fast and easy. The softness is nice to touch but it has also a negative aspect - you need to straighten the strap as it is twisted sometimes when I out the guitar aside which may be annoying sometimes. There is not other flaw. Material is pretty good - real leather and the tweed looks like some kind of cotton.
I like it and would buy it again probably.

Good and fit for purpose
Ordered the fender vintage tweed guitar strap to match the epiphany guitar and am overall very satisfied with the quality look and feel. Order was delivered quickly.

Great strap!
I really am pleased with this strap. It looks great against my red Strat and it’s comfortable and best of all, very light and thin, so I can get it into my very slim case, without removing it. Reasonable price, too, for a Fender product! Winner!

Great strap ..... but .....
Love this strap, there is one issue though, the black plastic length adjuster feels very light and flimsy. It just does not fit in with the rest of the product. Mine is still in one piece, but I reckon it could easily brake!
Unless you are UBER careful with your gear, avoid this one.

Better than the plastic ones
This is a more comfortable strap than the standard fender one, for me at least. Not so bulky or heavy. The ends are similar quality though, get straploks!
