comfortable neck strap for Leica Ultravid 10x25 - need help finding replacement (1 Viewer)

The flimsy 1/4" wide webbing strap they come with are uncomfortable - to me ofcourse - and I can't find any 1/4" wide webbing neck strap for them. Been searching everywhere, even local stores.
I would prefer neoprene padding, and rear caps have to somehow stay in the same run,
Thanks in advance for the help
Phil
ps: please see attached image as reference - that's the strap that comes with

Come in a range of styles and colours, neoprene or leather finish.
 
Thanks - the problem is that those quick connectors wires won't allow for the rear caps to stay connected in the same loop - see how they attach in pic

If the Bin/OP strap won't work, the strap for my SW Curio 7x21 would fit on my UV 8x20 so I assume it would also fit on your 10x25. There is enough stretch in the cord section of the strap to make it very comfortable and it's a bit more compact than the Bin/Op. I'm not sure whether the Minox compact strap is available separately as an accessory but it's very comfortable as well and should fit your UV.

That Opticron should do it indeed - they are in NC, but not all online-able stores carry that specific strap...last resort they can still take orders.
Thanks - going to do some searching
