I skipped for the first time last night. With cheap Nashbar straps and clips that cost a total of $10, I just realized that my first skip could have been my last. This leads me to believe that I need new straps.

These Silva ones caught my eye ($20). I like the look with the wide padding part. I found two opinions of them on this forum: one person liked them, but another said something broke off of them. Here's a picture. Has anyone had them for a while, and can they let us know more about them?



I also read about the Errebi double straps--they crack in several months. So maybe I should just splurge for the Toshi ones. But how long do the Toshi ones last? Significantly longer than the Errebi? The guys who have these, please respond, b/c I am very interseted. I've read some people's opinions, but they have only had them for several months and cannot attest to their long-term durability vs. Errebi's.

These Cinelli single straps by BensCycles also interested me. They are about $20. Anyone have any experience with these?



Please post any of your experiences with other toe straps, and the names of ones which you've had break on you.... I did some searching and could not find any good solid answers as to which ones I should get. Thanks!
