The Vintage Cadillac Red Racer-X
High-gloss red Cadillac vinyl with a cream racing stripe laid off-center. Cut and sewn by hand from reclaimed vintage automotive stock.
Genuine reclaimed Cadillac vinyl
Vintage automotive vinyl in a deep, high-gloss red, with a natural pebbled grain under the shine. Reclaimed deadstock, so this color lasts only as long as the material does.
One stripe, deliberately off-center
The cream stripe is a separate piece of vinyl sewn onto the strap, not printed on it — and it sits off-center, the way a racing stripe sits on a hood.
- Sewn-on cream vinyl stripe, not printed
- White stitching down both edges of the stripe
- Red edge stitching, black vinyl backing
Black vinyl tabs, nickel rivets
Heavyweight black vinyl tabs, triple-riveted and reinforced around the button hole. A slide adjuster sets your height and holds it.
- No leather anywhere on the strap
- Embossed couch hand made logo
- Woven Couch label on the back
- Works with standard strap locks
Broken in before it ships
No stiff-new-strap phase. Automotive vinyl is supple out of the box, lies flat on the shoulder and will not curl or dig in over a long set. Wipes clean with a damp cloth.
Made to be seen from the back row
Not a subtle strap, and not trying to be. Red and cream against a sunburst, a natural blonde or a black finish has been working since the first hot rod got a stripe down the hood.
Made in the USA
Cut, stitched and finished by hand in our own shop.
Reclaimed Material
Vintage automotive deadstock that was never going to be made again.
Built To Outlast
Straps we sold twenty years ago are still on stage.
Cut from reclaimed vintage material, so small variations in grain and tone are part of the deal — no two straps are exactly alike.
