Let's face it there is no shortage of NATO bands, from cheap to very expensive, nylon to leather but I found this Strapsco Leather works best for me.
What I like is that this one is water resistant and its $25 which is way less Hodinkee or other fancy makers charge. https://strapsco.com/product/faded-vintage-leather-nato-strap/
also great straps on amazon here https://tinyurl.com/yy4lqujb
