I have been rocking a pair of single Mikashima leather toe straps for ~2 years in all kinds of weather. Bought them on eBay NOS. I actually surprised that they have yet to snap on me yet because I do skid and skip when needed. They are still holding up very well with the only real wear on the leather is where the name has come off the straps.
Edit:
Just went on eBay and found the pair I have in red.
