I just use the shitty Ernie Ball straps still. Never upped my strap game.

Sometimes too slippery for me.

This is why I like them.
My strap drifts over my collarbone while playing and it hurts because of an old injury.
Slippery makes getting it back to my shoulder easy.
 
Yes but I get mine from souldier. I tried several straps and these work best, don't get sweaty or cut or turn you raw

Edit:
I should note I don't get the $60 ones, usually they are about $40 which is pretty steep but after buying several other kinds that didn't work out it was worth it. They have plain ones for $25 so idk how much they differ from op's link but I'm 100% a fan.

as long as you don't have serious neck dive, the nylon straps work great. I still find they dig into my shoulder more than the basic leather straps. I usually use my nylon straps with headless, semi-hollow and hollow guitars and more balanced guitars. Thankfully I'm not into boat anchors like Les Pauls
 
The Stranny's avg. 5 lbs. even.
8 pounds feels like a boat anchor now.
 
I've had so many bruised shoulders over the years from car accidents. Those things would tear me up, because me on stage is just like a car accident. All the same grace and awe.
 
I cut the little ears off the narrow end and it's perfect with the Strandberg.

I have a dddddadarieo on my dk2 which is good...bought a padded bass strap with leather ends that I put on my Greco....very comfortable. Most comfy ever was one my stepfather made for that es-355 I bought from him years ago. Wide with leather on one side and lambswool on the other....
