As temperatures rise and lifestyles shift outdoors, the demands on a watch strap change. Customers want comfort, breathable materials, seasonal colours, and straps that can handle everything from beach days to festivals to city exploring.
At LBS, we offer a wide selection of straps that are perfectly suited to the summer months — whether it's for sport, travel, everyday wear or simply switching up a look for the season. Here’s our pick of the most summer-friendly watch straps to recommend in-store or online this season.
1. Canvas: The Rugged Summer Classic
Canvas is a warm weather staple for good reason. Lightweight yet tough, it’s breathable on the wrist and ideal for active days in the sun.
Our canvas straps are made from a hardwearing fibre blend that’s resistant to abrasions - built to take on holidays, hikes, or whatever summer throws at them. They pair especially well with sports and field watches, giving off a rugged, laid-back feel.
The colour-matched stitching adds a refined detail, and the three versatile colours - Black, Blue, and Light Green - offer easy styling with summer gear.
2. Modern Water-Resistant Straps: Splash-Friendly Style
Ideal for poolside lounging, beach trips, or festival weekends, our water-resistant straps are a smart choice for customers on the go.
They’re crafted with a bold black edge for contrast, and the soft nubuck underside makes them extra comfortable - even in hot, sticky conditions. These straps also feature quick release spring bars, so wearers can switch between colours and styles in seconds.
Offered in bold seasonal tones like Bright Yellow, Orange and Sky Blue, these straps bring energy and personality to any watch this summer.
3. Recycled Ocean Fabric: Lightweight & Eco-Friendly
Nothing says summer like being by the water - and these straps quite literally help protect it. Made from recycled ocean-bound plastic, these straps are a sustainable, lightweight, and breathable option for eco-conscious customers.
The fine weave offers a premium feel, while the colour-matched stitching adds polish. Summer shades like Pink and Red make them ideal for seasonal looks - playful, impactful, and better for the planet.
For retailers looking to offer green alternatives without compromising on durability or aesthetics, these straps are a must.
4. Premium Parachute Elastic: Heritage Fabric, Summer Comfort

Originally fashioned by the French Navy from parachute cords, these elastic straps have become a go-to for lightweight, flexible comfort - perfect for summer.
Breathable and easy to wear, they expand and contract with the wrist, making them ideal for hot days when a rigid strap might feel restrictive. Their one-piece construction also gives them a casual, utilitarian charm that works well with tool and military-style watches.
An easy sell for customers looking for history, heritage and hands-free practicality.
5. Quick Release Nylon: Easy Wear, Endless Colour Options
For customers looking to personalise their watch to match their summer style, our quick release nylon straps offer the ideal solution.
Made from durable yet lightweight woven nylon, they’re breathable, sweat-resistant and ready for action - from daily wear to holiday adventures. Quick release spring bars make it easy to switch between colours, and the polished square buckle gives a clean, contemporary finish.
Available in a full rainbow of shades - from vibrant Red, Orange and Yellow to Light Blue, Pink and White - these straps are a fun and practical choice for warm-weather styling.
