INTRODUCING HAVESTON<br />

STRAP<br />

THICKER, STURDIER, AND HIGHER QUALITY THAN THE AVERAGE<br />

NATO STRAPS<br />

www.haveston.com<br />

By Azhar Ahmad<br />

In this edition of strap review, we have a very cool brand for your reading pleasure.<br />

These guys are not just your ordinary NATO straps; they're re-engineered from the<br />

traditional layout by extending the mounting position of the watch case and relocate<br />

the folded tail to the flat base of the wearer's wrist. But let’s not rush into<br />

details so fast. Please meet Haveston, your new favorite heavy duty strap.<br />

While other strap brands have many options to choose from, Haveston only has<br />

two choice of straps, and it's actually a good thing. You can spend hours wandering<br />

from one strap to another, but you'll never be able to narrow it down to these two<br />

straps because let's face it, how often do you change straps anyway?<br />

Inspired by the striped paint scheme applied to Allied aircraft on the eve of the D-<br />

Day invasion, the Invasion strap was born. The M1936 strap is based on classic<br />

canvas tones found in US military field equipment between 1943-45. Both straps<br />

feature a heavy weave fabric that holds its form while still remaining flexible. Its<br />

completely redesigned layout delivers greater comfort and aesthetics and the<br />

sliding keeper allows easy and secure stowing of tail.<br />

You can purchase them individually or both in a set. It only comes in 20mm but a<br />

22mm one will soon be available. We encourage you to pay a visit to their site and<br />

have a look or follow their journey on Instagram @havestonstraps.<br />
