I'm going to start posting what I call "Zoddities*"... this is a collection of cool, weird looking gadgets, gear, stuff. I think you'll enjoy reading about it or looking at the pictures.
First issue of Zoddities! Straps... i.e. Guitar straps
Made by the
Eyeland company. You'd notice a lot of "eyes" appearing on their guitar straps. Kinda creeps you out. But cool anyways.
from their website:The materials that go into Eyeland products are essential in creating
the most visually striking and functional guitar straps ever!
With an extensive background in the leather and fashion industry not to
mention sculptural principal and design, we seek out the absolute best
of all these media. The leathers used in our straps have come from the
top tanneries in the world.
Our requirements are that it has to be beautiful to the eye, wonderful
to touch and able to perform. The hardware has to be up to the task. It
must be top quality, compliment the design and also hold up to the
rigors of the road.
The glass eyes used in some of our designs are actually hand-painted
and so realistic you expect them to blink! Eyeland straps are not your
typical assembly line "what ya see is what ya get" situation. Each
strap is created with a conviction to detail.
Adjusting
the length of an Eyeland strap is a joy! All Eyeland straps are
designed so they can be easily adjusted. There are a variety of methods
we utilize that compliment the designs. We don't think you should have
to have an Eagle Scout knot manual to lengthen or shorten your strap.
You may notice that some Eyeland guitar straps incorporate curves. The
Eyeland Ergo-Curve evolved from customer input. This design conforms to
the shape of your body to distribute weight and allow freedom of
movement.*Why am I calling it zoddities? Because I need a word that starts with the letter "Z" so it will show up at the end of my categories... and combining it with the word "Oddities" for odd stuff. Happy now?
