Where can I buy coloured toe straps, to fit clips as below? Preferably nylon or similar.

Thanks

I've removed the buckle from a broken strap and rerivetted onto another length of leather strap. So if you buy some leather you can make them from whatever colour you like. :wink:

And I can buy coloured leather straps!

I've just realised... someone's going to suggest weaving my own...

I have often thought it wouldn't exactly be rocket science to DIY a set of laminated Alfredo Binda style straps, just a question a finding the right glue, mainly.

Firstly,decide what colour.Then select your chosen animal.....cow,pig,sheep,deer,alligator.Then wait until your animal dies, naturally of course ,then.......well,you know the script.Alternatively,go on line and buy a nylon one. Zefal -Christophe.....£ 8-00

Yes, I'm now planning the breeding programme. But wondering if it would be more authentic to wait for further evolution to occur...

"If only"...? Unsure what you mean here,open to many interpretations sucn as:"if only I could charge my laptop out here in the desert...with no water....lost....and the sun is coming up"

I meant if only someone would find some coloured nylon straps. But I now see that they have.

Search online for resellers of MKS FIT-α FIRST

MKS toe straps are dearer than Christophe, although they do use stainless buckles.
