Longer bass strap

Hey I'm searching Internet and cannot seem to find a strap over 56" that isn't leather.I know leather looks good,but it gets hot and sticky,was really hoping nylon or a cloth of some kind that breaths a bit
 
NeoTech Jammin' Strap seems to go that long. I play much much shorter, so can't comment about these specifically, but I like my NeoTech straps and have been using a few religiously over the last few years.
 
Pretty much all of the “seat belt” straps will do 60”. I have bought quite a few of them recently, having developed a preference for long and slippery straps (pretty much the opposite of the rest of TalkBass). Lots of different manufacturers, here’s one just as an example: [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]. I buy them on eBay for betwee $15 and $30 apiece.

These are my favorites: Souldier - Custom Straps Handmade Good for your Soul

+1 on th Dunlop. My Classic Black Grommet strap is adjusted to about 54" and will max out somewhere in the neighborhood of 66". It isn't a good strap for much shorter than I've got it...the grommets start getting in the way of the buckle.
