What’s in the Box – Custom Radio Strap
This ain’t some shiny shelf decoration. This is a badass firefighter radio strap setup, built by a fireman who knows what gear needs to survive in the smoke, heat, and chaos of the job.
Each piece is handcrafted from thick, premium 9+ oz. full-grain leather—not that dollar-store nonsense your lieutenant tries to justify ordering. It’s dyed at the tannery, not in someone’s backyard with a can of spray paint. That means it’ll hold its color through structure fires, sweaty shift changes, and those “quick” decons that last longer than the chief’s stories.
Outfitted with duty-grade hardware, this strap won’t slip, crack, or tap out when things get hot. And because we respect your experience, we skipped the fixed mic cord keeper. You know how to run your setup—we’re just here to give you the solid foundation.
Built by hand. Worn with pride. Probably tougher than your lieutenant’s ego—and that’s saying something. Also your strap won’t fade like your probie’s confidence after a missed hydrant. Just joking take it easy :)
Note: No fixed mic cord keeper—because you’ve got enough experience to rig your own setup. But if you want one, just check the box. We won’t judge.
Built by hand. Worn with pride.
Read This Before You Order – Seriously
Measure yourself. Don’t wing it, don’t guess, and don’t use sizes from another company. We size our way—and if you order short, that’s a you problem. Leather doesn’t grow back once it’s cut. Trust us—we’ve tried (it involved duct tape, swearing, and tears).
Buying as a gift? Use the chart below. It’ll get you close, but no guarantees—especially if your firefighter hits the chili cookoff too hard.
Size Guide
Small – 49" to 58"
Medium – 52" to 61"
Large – 60" to 70"
XL – 70" to 77"
How to Measure – Do It Right the First Time
Grab a piece of webbing, rope, or string.
Run it over your shoulder, like you'd wear the strap.
Bring both ends together at your hip—where the strap would connect to your holster.
Use a tape measure to get the length in inches. That’s your number.
Pro tip: Stand up straight when measuring. Slouching may feel good, but it’ll throw off your sizing—and nobody wants their strap riding up like their turnout pants during inspection.
Measure once. Order once. Ride with confidence.
Don’t Be That Guy – Strap Smart
NEVER wear your radio strap over your turnout coat.
Yeah, it might look badass in a photo, but in reality? That’s a shortcut to getting snagged, slowed down, and destroying your gear.
Here’s how real firefighters run it:
Strap goes under the coat. Always.
Let your radio hang just above your bunker pants for quick, easy access.
Your coat should shed water over your radio—not funnel it into your comms like a storm drain.
Route your mic cord through your collar and out the neck. Smooth, fast, and out of the way.
This setup keeps your strap alive longer, your comms clear, and your crew out of trouble.
Still think over-the-coat is cool?
Google “Fairfax County Fire & Rescue radio strap study.” That little research rabbit hole will fix your thinking real quick.
