Any companies that make "fun" slings

Looking for companies in the UK that sell slings similar to wellmadeco in the US. More interesting and fun patterns rather than the standard Airsoft colours.

What sort of styles are you interested in from their range?

Some of them are just colourful / patterned 25mm webbing straps.

You can get colourful or patterned webbing straps from a variety of places.  You may have a local haberdashery / fabric shop that stocks at least a few different colours than black and would be willing to order in others.

These are great places to go and buy material / straps by the roll or by the metre.  Take a selection of slide / clip fittings and you can make a whole range of different slings types for a fraction of the cost of the ‘custom’ ones.

If you want something a bit more complex such as adding padded sleeves to the straps just ask at the counter and they will either offer a custom service or have local seamstresses that take custom work to make a sleeve from your choice of custom material from the shop

 

Ask with enough volume to be heard around the shop and some of the customers could offer their skills

(For the first event we ran the objective colour flags on pulleys came from the local fabric shop, I asked for something cheap and brightly coloured that could be cut up and tied to ropes.  I was handed a few lengths of fabric pre cut to my rough sizing   These were reused for many events - they will still be in my boxes of event kit)

 

 

Something else to consider for padded / wide straps are guitar straps, you can use them as made or cut off the guitar ends to fit webbing strap fittings instead 

 

Take a look around your high street, or browse Amazon, Google, Ali express, Temu etc - you will be spoilt for choice

(Don’t feel obliged to go for 25mm, there is a wide variety - just remember to get complimenting sizes of straps & fittings - or don’t automatically use buckle clips etc, a loop of para cord does the job as well and can be the ideal fixing for some guns)
