I like the standard Leica strap.   But for some reason, I prefer the strap
which came with my older Wetzlar era M6 rather than the otherwise identical
strap which came with my M6HM classic.   The older one hangs onto my
shoulder more securly; perhaps the rubber is a bit softer and forms itself
to the shape of my shoulder.

But the best strap I have ever used is the strap which came with my Minolta
9.  Much better then the "gripper" which I have on my F2, or the Leica straps.
