    OWF also carries 1" PES webbing . Not sure about the thickness+type of weave , but i'm pretty sure it has been recommended in the past

    This is where it is confusing.
    Do I want soft link, heavy link, tight weave etc ??

    Atleast on OWF there is only one type of PES (Polyester) which is preferable to Polypro.
    Quest doesnt seem to have any ,what AHE an Whoopieslings.com sell seems to be what i know from warbonnets straps

    Beyond that aslong as it is strong enough there wont be much of a difference ..
    The straps i got from warbonnet have looser weave and soft edge compared to my diy straps, they deform more as they have some diagonal stretch and also get caught on the bark easier but they do their job perfectly..

    Just make sure its not grosgrain and any 1inch PES webbing should do
