I am in need of a new strap for my 10X40 classics. Any suggestions. Comfort is paramont.

Most larger magnification bins are relatively heavy so I'd suggest a broad (1") neoprene strap. I found one of these to significantly improve the comfort when carrying them around my neck for long periods of time. I paid around £10 here in the UK.

If you suffer back or shoulder problems then the harness style might work out as a better option.

There are some indicative types/styles here.

You can't go wrong with one from OpTech! I recommend one of these:

But they have others as well.

Try the new contoured neoprene Zeiss strap as supplied with their Victory Fl binos - available as a genuine Zeiss accessory. Also keeps everything in the same house.....however don't get mosquito repellent (with DEET) on the fabric

Thanks for the info. The optec straps look pretty nice. I will compare with the Zeiss straps.
