For those of us living in North America, specifically Canada for myself, the snow is finally melting, and the promise of warm weather is right around the corner. As someone who loves leather, silk, or warmer material during the colder months, there's no better feeling than getting ready for the spring sun with the proper strap.
So, what's the best strap for spring? RSM Watch Strap has a variety to choose from, so here’s a few of my favorites
Herringbone Twill Straps
A fantastic strap for comfort, durability, and to dress up a watch is the Herringbone Twill or HBT straps, especially with the rich color of Icarus Blue.
Herringbone Twill straps originated from the M1941 military uniforms of WWII. Uniforms were one of many items that needed to be retrofitted, and the Herringbone Twill uniforms provided comfort while being the first "anti-rip" or "rip-stop" material produced for military use.
Due to its woven nylon construction, these straps are ready for daily, casual, or formal wear and events. Whether hiking, fishing, driving, or sitting at a café enjoying a coffee while absorbing the spring sunshine and fresh air, the Herringbone Twill strap is ready for any and all scenarios and will look fantastic for years. I can't recommend it enough.
Reversible Silk Single Pass Straps
When I think of spring, I think of softness, sunshine, and comfortable weather. It's also usually the time when vineyards begin their tours, and what better strap to pair with beautiful weather and a glass of wine than a Reversible Silk Single Pass Straps; casual meets chic.
Reversible Silk straps are one of the best ways to dress up a watch, and for those who are looking to spend a day out and might have some plans for the evening, the reversible option is perfect for you. With the sleek and stealthy look of black, it's perfect for more casual or daily wear, while the reverse side is this inviting and saturated burgundy, which is great for more formal outings and adds a pop of color and sophistication to your on-wrist experience.
Each strap is woven and finished by hand and is a fantastic example of modern technology meeting traditional material craftsmanship. Soft, supple, and luxurious, the Reversible Silk Single Pass Straps from RSM Watch Strap is a fantastic companion for spring.
Buttero Leather Watch Straps
Let me paint a picture for you: you're standing in your kitchen, staring out the window at the trees blooming with their beautiful green leaves. You sip your coffee, look down to check the time, and bam—this saturated green leather goodness on your wrist. It's lush, comfortable, inviting, and feels like luxury; that's what RSM Watch Strap Buttero Leather straps can bring you.
Green is the color of spring, and while the promise of warmer weather is upon us, there are some days that are a little colder than others. That's why I often recommend people have a leather strap ready to enjoy those crisp spring mornings.
This premium full-grain Tuscan leather is vegetable-tanned using natural tannins to ensure you have the softest yet most durable strap possible, providing you with a comfortable and long-lasting wearing experience.

Vintage Military Two-Piece Watch Straps
I don't think I need to explain why military straps are ideal for outdoor applications in any season, but because I love them so much, I will anyway.
Vintage military webbing offers so much durability and resilience, making it a staple for anything outdoors. The RSM Vintage Military Two-Piece Watch Strap in Khaki is a fantastic example of both a rugged and reliable strap design. The polycotton straps offer extensive durability and add to the aesthetic of a vintage tool or military watch.
These straps are great for any and all outdoor applications; from rock climbing to hiking, fixing the car, or cutting the lawn, these straps are meant to take a beating and age beautifully, or they are a great addition to a watch that's already lived a life. Don't be scared to put some memory marks on your watch and include a Vintage Military Two-Piece Watch Strap as your companion this spring.
Fine Canvas Watch Straps
Canvas straps are a popular option for those looking to upgrade their watch and enhance their wearing experience. We've seen the popularity of canvas straps rise more and more each year, and with them becoming more common, the team at RSM Watch Strap knew their Fine Canvas Watch Straps needed to be something special.
In their search for the best materials, the team found a Japanese canvas manufacturer that has produced canvas for over nine decades and creates the finest materials possible to not only create a great-looking Fine Canvas Watch Strap, but also provide longevity.
The combination of natural cotton yarns paired with the Zermatt leather underside creates a clean and comfortable wearing experience, and the stitchless design allows the Fine Canvas Watch Strap to cascade over the wrist without having stitches break up the design.
This is just a sample of the fantastic straps available in our Spring in Color collection. Feel free to check out the range from Art Deco Silk to Italian Epsom Leather, Fine Canvas to Distressed Leather and all the straps mentioned above, of course.
