The Tropical — FKM Rubber Strap
Couldn't load pickup availability
The Tropical is a modern interpretation of a mid-century classic — the textured rubber strap once favoured by divers, explorers, and sportsmen for its reliability in every climate. First introduced in the 1960s, the original tropical strap became an icon of utility and style, chosen for its lightness, breathability, and resistance to the elements.
Randock reimagines this legend in premium FKM rubber, elevating its heritage with superior comfort, resilience, and refined detailing. Perforated for ventilation and moulded for flexibility, the Tropical is as suited to warm-weather travel as it is to daily wear. Integrated quick-release spring bars allow for seamless strap changes, making it as adaptable as it is enduring.
