Product Detail
Racing holes strap - built your way.
A classic racing strap with perforated holes for a sporty, vintage look. The holes are punched but do not pierce through - a contrast color underlay sits beneath, so a pop of color shows through every hole. Each strap is hand-cut, hand-stitched and finished one piece at a time in our Da Nang workshop. No two leave the bench identical.
What you'll customize
- Underlay color (under the holes) - the contrast color that shows through the perforations, 11 shades
- Keeper loop color - match the main leather, tone with the underlay, or pick your own
- Stitching color - tone-on-tone with the underlay or a custom contrast thread
- Edge paint color - tone-on-tone or your own edge color
- Leather - premium Epsom, Swift or Togo calfskin, plus premium Lizard and Alligator upgrades
- Base leather color - the main strap color
- Lug width - 16mm through 24mm, plus a custom-size option
- Length - sized to your wrist, or your exact measurements
- Tip shape, padding profile and thickness
- Buckle finish - Silver, Gold, Rose Gold and Black, or bring your own buckle
- Spring bar - Quick-release (pre-installed) or Regular
- Personalization - heat-pressed initials or name on the back of the long end (up to 14 characters, free)
Why a Moc Goods strap
Soft, water-resistant Zermatt lining on every strap. It sits against your skin all day - so we use a smooth, breathable lining that wicks moisture and softens with wear.
Quick-release spring bars pre-installed. Swap your strap in seconds, no spring bar tool needed.
Hand-stitched, edge by edge. Two needles, one stitch at a time, locked at every hole. If one thread breaks, the rest hold. No machines.
Heat-pressed initials, no extra cost. A small touch that turns a strap into a keepsake.

FROM OUR WORKSHOP
How your strap is made
Thirteen steps. One pair of hands. About a full working day from the first cut to the closed box.
Cutting
The pattern is traced onto the hide and cut by hand with a fresh blade - one steady pull per line.
Skiving
Each edge runs through the bell skiver, shaved to a fine ramp for a clean, tapered finish.
Saddle stitching
Two needles and waxed thread, stitched by hand - a saddle stitch that holds even when cut.
Reading the hide
Not every part of a hide makes a strap. The belly scales need to fall straight - centered, regular, no skipped rows. We walk the template across the panel until the rows line up under it, then mark where the cut will go.
Drawing the pattern
The pattern goes on kraft paper at full size. Tail length, buckle end, taper, pin holes - all set on paper before a blade touches the leather. Mistakes here are cheap; mistakes after this point are not.
Cutting
The kraft template is traced onto the back of the hide with a fine awl, then cut by hand with a fresh blade. One steady pull per line. If the line wavers, the piece goes to the scrap pile - we never try to save a bad cut.
Stacking the layers
Six pieces make one strap: top exotic, a calfskin underlayer, closed-cell foam for the curve, the lining for the wrist side, plus two thin strips for the keeper loops. Everything is dry-fit first, before any glue touches anything.
Skiving
Each edge runs through the bell skiver - a small rotating disc that shaves the leather down to a fine ramp. Hold the piece wrong and you cut through. We have been over this machine thousands of times; the hand finds the angle on its own now.
Glue and assemble
Latex contact glue, brushed on both sides, left to tack. The layers go together once - the bond is permanent, so the alignment has to be right the first time. The strap takes shape between two thumbs.
Trimming the blank
The glued blank is trimmed back to the pattern line and the edges flattened with a fresh blade. This is the first moment the strap looks like a strap - one clean shape, ready for the stitch line to be marked.
Marking the stitch line
A brass pricking iron is struck with a poly mallet down the edge, walked forward one tooth, struck again. Every hole is set in advance - so the needle never has to guess where it is going next.
Saddle stitching
Strap clamped in a wooden pony. Two needles loaded with waxed polyester thread, both hands moving in opposite directions, locking each stitch in place. Hours per side. The result is a stitch that cannot run - cut one and the next ones hold.
Edge painting
Edge paint is mixed to match the strap colour, in small batches. A fine applicator lays it down in a thin pass. The edge is heat-set, sanded back with very fine grit, and the next pass goes on. Three to five passes - until the seam reads as one piece of edge.
Attaching the buckle
The buckle is set at the tail end with a pin that locks through the leather. The keeper loop - the small leather sleeve that holds the tail in place on the wrist - is fitted last with a final saddle stitch.
Finished strap
Twin pieces, hand-burnished edges, saddle stitch in matching thread, and a polished buckle ready for the watch case. We hold each finished strap in the hand for a final look-over before it goes into the box.
Boxed and shipped
Last check: stitch count, edge finish, leather grain, buckle alignment. Anything off goes back. The strap is laid into a Moc Goods box with a handwritten thank-you card, sealed, and shipped from Da Nang to your door with tracking.

BUILT FOR DAILY WEAR
Watch Strap Structure
Each Moc Goods watch strap is built around three details that matter most for daily wear. Pre-installed Quick Release spring bars let you swap straps in seconds without tools or scratches on the lugs.
The underside is lined with soft, water-resistant Zermatt - the same lining used by leading watch strap makers worldwide - for all-day comfort, even in warm weather. And every strap can be hand-stamped with your name or initials, free of charge, so the piece on your wrist is one of one.
GIFT-READY
Strap Packaging That Protects
Every strap ships in a Moc Goods gift box, hand-packed in our Da Nang workshop. A handwritten thank-you card is tucked inside, and each strap is wrapped in a soft cotton sleeve so the leather arrives unmarked.
Orders of four or more straps ship in our larger presentation box. Ready to give as-is - no extra wrapping needed.
