Why the Original Black Glove Leather Series Stands Out

As the genesis of the Franklin Strap lineup, this series utilizes premium natural materials to provide a secure and exceptionally soft feel.

• Premium Pebbled Glove Leather: The top layer is crafted from high-grade pebbled glove leather, known for its buttery-soft texture and resilience. It develops a unique patina over time while maintaining its structural integrity.
• Signature Suede Backing: To ensure your instrument stays in place, each strap features a soft suede backing. This two-ply construction provides a natural grip that helps prevent "neck dive," especially on heavier solid-body guitars.
• Refined Tailored Look: Every strap is outlined with carefully applied contrast stitching. This subtle detail provides a polished, high-end appearance that looks as good with a vintage acoustic as it does with a modern electric.
• Heavy-Duty Construction: Designed for years of active use, the series features double-ply end tabs for reinforced strength at the connection points. This ensures your guitar remains securely attached during even the most energetic movements.
• Available in Two Widths: Choose the 2.5” width for a classic look and feel, or step up to the 3” width to distribute the weight of heavy basses and solid-body guitars more evenly across your shoulder.
