Yes. The contoured Niggeloh/VeroVellini (there's also a plain straight one) is essentially identical to the current Leica OEM strap, which is my favorite for larger bins and worn on my own SLC 56s. It's not overly wide, has just the right subtle shape to sit on the shoulders instead of around the neck, and the neoprene can stretch a bit. (Unfortunately the more widely available Leica strap with the big red dot has some material sewn in that doesn't stretch.) On 32mm bins I use the classic Nikon AN-4B nylon strap. For 42s (presumably) at 28 oz I'd probably choose neoprene.A contoured neoprene Niggeloh (Vero Venelli in your part of the world). They are allegedly suppliers to Leica, Swarovski and Zeiss.
Mine (radically shortened) is very comfortable with an 8x56 SLC.
Is that a strap with "Nikon" printed in large yellow letters? I thought it was naff and that it invited unwanted attention.On 32mm bins I use the classic Nikon AN-4B nylon strap.
Maven’s binocular straps. Very good quality. Nice/wide and comfortable with their clip and release system. You have the option of purchasing and adding their longer extension for over the shoulder carry. They are reasonably priced also.Hi,
I am looking for a new neck strap for my binoculars. The binoculars weigh about 800 grams (28oz). I like to wear my binoculars fairly high on my chest and I am not interested in a harness. What is your favorite neck strap?
Thanks?

Oh no. It's just a plain nylon strap with a bit of grippy material sewn onto the neck/shoulder area, no padding, clips, logo etc -- nice and simple for gear that's not too heavy, takes no extra space in a daypack.Is that a strap with "Nikon" printed in large yellow letters?
