Alembic Straps

Has anyone heard if Alembic is ever going to re-stock the 4 leather straps, or if they are permanently discontinued?  I have one and was hoping to get another but they are always out of stock.

Jon:
 
If Alembic doesn't have it, you might want to check directly with the maker,  
Moody Leather.  I believe Alembic licenses Moody to emboss the Alembic logo for a little extra charge.

Thanks.  I knew they are/were Moody's.  I have some non-Alembic Moody straps as well.  Good to know they can emboss the logo on.  I'll give them a try.

As an FYI, I contacted Moody's and they no longer have the capability to do embossed straps.  
 
They still are great straps, however.

I have I 4 light tan strap that has a logo the same color as the strap that I have replaced with
a super padded one for my neck that works better. Honestly, it's soooo rarely been played I would callit 95% perfect if you have interest.
thanks,
Marc

I would like to add that it seems to be the camel tan leather with the suede lining and has the embossed Alembic logo.
