Thats what I did today. I picked up a set of cheapo Sunlite's at my lbs. They are fleather with fchrome and what not. They look alright. I honestly have never ridden straps and I have no clue how to install them. I mean I got them installed on my pedals but I quickly took them of because I was in a hurry and didnt know how to exactly adjust the strap. Anywho, I think I have come to the conclusion that straps will jut get in my way. I do a lot of short commuting, nothing more than a couple of miles to and fro school, lbs, etc. I am def. going to try them but I am unsure that I will approve as many on this forum have.
