I was going to get either this or the Daddario 50E03 Saugerties strap.
This one feels a little more comfortable to wear and does the job perfectly. There's a metal buckle that could damage your guitar if you're too wild, but I don't have any issues.
EDIT: I now understand what the other reviewer (Zeppp) was talking about. At the ends of the strap there's a bit of the metal from the buttons that's exposed at the other side. It's hard to notice. But given enough time, it will start to scratch your guitar, especially at the bottom where the strap is pulled against the guitar body. My strat now has a 2cm spot where the finish was worn off because of this strap... I fixed it with some glued-on pads, but I have to lower the rating because of this.
Note that the stitching appears a little less detailed than that of the Saugerties strap. I assume that this is to be more authentic. The colors are also more muted than the ones on the Saugerties strap; the pictures from Thomann are quite accurate.
I went with this one because a) it's more comfortable, and b) the colors on the Saugerties are too bright/saturated for my taste.

Missing category: legacy/looks - five stars
There are quite a few more comfy straps on the market, but beware - putting this strap on your Strat deserves to become your favourite pre-gig ritual. Build quality is good; looks are astounding. The only problem I have experienced is with the buckle, as adjustment might take some brute force. The absence of a safety clip is not an issue - the guitar stays firmly attached while the seating is comfortable regardless of the traditional materials used.

It will damage your precious guitar
This strap is not made for guitars, the metal attachments will damage the body of your guitar. Don't buy it, unless you like your guitar with scratches.

Guter Gurt
Der Gurt ist Top und man kann Gitarren sowie Bässe lange damit tragen, doch den Gurt zu verstellen kann manchmal etwas Tricky sein.
