Ethos Straps 45% Off

I love mine.
45% off is huge!

My last 2 experiences from Ethos was a nightmare after buying from them (10 straps and accessories over 2 years) for years. I was lied to and it took 3 months to get a order that was promised in 2 weeks. Buyers beware of this company.
As long as I get what I ordered and it's of quality, I'm ok with the wait.

I was lied to 9-10 times about it being shipped every week and even received a phony tracking that it shipped end of a December 2019. Never actually shipped until March. I’ve been in sales most of my life and your word is everything for repeat business. Now I hope they have everything straightened out and this never happens again but the lies is something I won’t tolerate. The last 4 products (2 different orders) have been this way.

Wow. That’s something I won’t tolerate, either. Just shoot straight with me, I understand issues arise, but don’t lie to me.
 
I've bought a lot of quality straps over the years. I search them out at the NAMM show every year. I see very high quality stuff. Even the Italian (soft as a baby's butt) leather straps don't retail that high. I understand the really fancy straps being more money, but I'm looking at their simplest leather strap at $129.99 At 45% off, after tax and shipping, that's still a good chunk for a very simple quality leather strap. Certainly a good sale, not great.

I'm seeing a lot of "good" sales right now on all kinds of goods. Companies need revenue to survive. These are certainly high quality straps. Any other time I might walk away from this sale, but in this moment it might be important to support a smaller business than save a few bucks, if you have the money to spend. I'd love to find a deal on a Henry Heller strap with soft Amalfi leather and perforated air holes in the underside glove leather. Light weight, comfortable, wears like iron.
