Wrist Straps?

I use Luigi straps on all cameras--D700, MP, M3. I just purchased two more Luigi straps with the leather strip that threads back though the strap for my GF-1 that is on order. I'm sold.
That is the one I have been looking for. I didn't see it on his site. Would you please show the picture (again).

Thanks. I couldn't make heads or tails of that before I saw your picture. Luigi would probably appreciate it if you would send him that picture. He would give you credit for it and it would be a better example of that strap than what is on there.
Do you feel that your camera is secure with that configuration? Could that leather slip out of those holes?

Hello Cindy,
That picture is from Luigi's site. I'm confident that the camera will be secure. I've dealt with similar type straps and the leather will not pull itself out of the holes. It's like they are glued in. With Luigi's the "tiny end" as he calls it threads through four holes. It's like four knots.

I ordered black and aged brown.

Well - I started this thread to buy a wrist and still haven't decided (tomorrow) but I have learned a lot and ordered a Y Strap and a Leica Goodies hook. This forum is great for information but bad for my wallet.
