Waxed Canvas, Worn Leather, Cooler Days

Windup Watch Shop - October 05, 2026

When does Fall start? It’s a simple question with countless answers. Those that follow the astronomical calendar would tell you that Fall started on September 22nd while others would tell you that it’s whenever Starbucks brings back the Pumpkin Spice Latte. However, for us, the start of fall is synonymous with adding layers back into the wardrobe, and switching out our summer straps. Whether you’re dressing up for a fall get together or getting out and enjoying the fresh air, we’ve got you covered!

STRAP HABIT HOOK AND LOOP SINGLE PASS WATCH STRAPS

The StrapHabit Hook and Loop Single Pass Watch Strap uses a quick-change pass-through design built for fast on-wrist adjustments. Soft yet durable ribbed nylon is secured with a hook-and-loop closure, offering the low-profile feel of a NATO-style strap with the instant adjustability of hook-and-loop. The nylon strap passes through brushed 304 stainless steel hardware finished with a subtly engraved StrapHabit logo. At 1.5mm thick and 10.5 inches unfolded, it's available in a no-taper 20mm or 22mm width, keeping a consistent, modern profile from lug to buckle. The hook-and-loop closure lets the strap fit wrists from about 5.75 to 8.25 inches, adjusting instantly without removing the watch. It's designed to work with watches on traditional spring bars as well as fixed lug bar designs like the Tudor Pelagos FXD, making it one of the few pass-through straps compatible with fixed-bar cases.

ANACHRONIST STEEL GREY ZERO-PASS RIBBED NYLON STRAP

Simple, rugged, and packed with character, the Zero-Pass Ribbed Nylon Strap from Anachronist is purpose-built to elevate your everyday wear. Whether you’re heading out on a weekend hike or pairing it with a modern field watch, this military-inspired strap offers a mix of utilitarian function and timeless style—with a unique twist.

Unlike standard nylon straps, the Zero-Pass design eliminates any material between your watch and your wrist. This allows the watch to sit lower and closer to the skin, improving both comfort and aesthetics—especially for thicker timepieces. Made from ribbed nylon for added texture and strength, these straps are lightweight yet durable, with just the right amount of flexibility for all-day comfort.

The long 290mm length accommodates a wide range of wrist sizes and wearing styles. 304 stainless steel hardware ensures reliability while maintaining a clean, brushed aesthetic. Whether you’re swapping out for the season or need a go-to strap that won’t quit, these are designed for a more comfortable wear and lasting performance. They’re the kind of strap you’ll want multiples of.

HORWEEN SHELL CORDOVAN

Shell cordovan is one of the rarest and most desirable leathers in the world. Produced from a layer of material located just over a horse’s hip, the result is a strong yet supple leather that does not crease. After a six-month tanning process, it develops a unique, rugged, rippling patina unlike anything else. Due to its strength, the straps can be made thin — these are just 2mm thick. Combined with color-matched stitching, the result is a robust and elegant strap, tapering down to a refined 16mm at the buckle to ensure comfort during wear on everything from a vintage dress watch to a scratched-up tool watch.

BOUNDARY LAYER STUDIOS: SIGNATURE COLLECTION - NEWPORT

Inspired by New England’s coastal heritage, the Boundary Layer Studio™ Signature Newport strap blends modern design with timeless, natural materials. Designed to pair seamlessly with both tool watches and refined daily wearers, the Newport brings a rugged yet elevated character to the wrist.

The strap’s topside is crafted from deadstock Loro Piana® fabric made from wool and silk, offering a soft texture and a sophisticated look rarely seen in watch straps. Beneath, a nubuck leather lining provides durability and a comfortable fit against the skin. Together, these premium materials deliver both resilience and refinement, ensuring the Newport feels as good as it looks. Finishing details include quick-release spring bars, remborded (rolled-edge) construction and hand-stitching that balance utility with craftsmanship.
