Hi

Finding correct Temple of Doom bag strap has been a thing for me for some time now. The first thing is correct leather. This strap looked so smooth and thin and yet strong. The color appears to be very dark brown so it mostly looks black.

It even gives me a feelings that some straps in ToD were black but this might just be depending on the lighting. They indeed look more dark brown than black, but were they black and look dark brown from distressing or were dark brown and look black because Indy looks wet in those bridge scenes ? The part where bag is put through O-ring is more brown.

Same in this snap. And what is this crease ? Is this just from bending the strap ?

What I'm very curious about is what is this hole on the strap ? I once read on one forum post that those straps could be vintage suitcase straps and strap having this hole could be from some suitcase but then it would probably have more holes than just one. It might be something else.

And inner side of strap looks to be smooth just like outside.
