I used to live in Oklahoma, so my dad went down to a local saddle shop and got the guy to make me one for my birthday. It's one of the nicest I have ever seen, and I know he didn't pay as much as I've seen a lot of custom leather straps go for.
A legendary local musician and top acoustic night host, John Brown, makes lovely leather straps, hand stitched, exotic leather inserts, for many of the local folk musicians down here in Miami. He's made three for all my guitars. I'd be happy to connect you.
