Nina is looking to get a calf strap for her chair, as she's never had one. We think it will be beneficial to her (and she wants a pair of heels!)

I've trawled Google, found one or two, but they don't look very good. One was a sort of material you find a cheap guitar strap made of, which can't be comfortable, but the other end of the scale was this huge fluffy thing, no thanks.

So where can we find a nice, black, maybe slightly padded calf strap. She has a TiLite chair if that makes any difference.

Cheers,

Chaz & Nina.

Hi there
Try this link to Rolli Moden. It has an english page and this company is very helpful. They may be pricey but well worth buying from.

My Tilite came with a calf strap. Could you order one from them?

Thanks for the replies, will check that link in a sec.

rue2you, that's what I thought, but surely they would show some sort of product on their website? We want some sort of idea on pricing, although it's not too much of an issue.

Thanks again guys and gals.

Chaz.
