We all know that a survival situation can occur when we least expect it, but the problem with a lot of survival equipment is that—outside of a pocket knife—not much of it is something you carry around with you from day to day. When's the last time you had 25 to 200 feet of paracord at the ready?
Now it's possible to have a considerable amount of the invaluable lashing cord with you at all times, thanks to a two-year-old mom-and-pop outfit out of Jacksonville Beach, FL. Kurt and Melissa Walchle's SurvivalStraps produces everything from bracelets, belts and watch straps to rifle slings, dog collars and lanyards out of tough paracord. The stylish yet functional products come in dozens of color combinations and are suitable for men, women and children. The idea is to make the cord something that you want to wear or keep with you, and should the occasion arise, you can simply cut a length of the cord to suit your needs.
A portion of the proceeds from sales of all SurvivalStraps products goes to the Wounded Warrior Project, an organization that aids U.S. servicemen and women who have been wounded in combat. The Walchles hope that people use their products to spread the word about the WWP. Check out the SurvivalStraps web site for more information and to order.

Cool. I gotta get one!
Very cool. Great Idea
Not only do they look good but it also go toward a good cause. I will be getting one.

One of the coolest things i've seen lately! I'll be getting one and the donation is a plus!

man those things are cool and i will look into gettin one. plus the donation is very good!!
This is one of those "why didn't I think of that?" ideas! Pretty clever...and if I had any doubts on getting one or not, the donation they make is enough to make up my mind for me.
Huh that's pretty cool, i might have to get something like that
I've ordered several and love em. Very clever and very cool. I can't wait til you can put a logo on them!!!
I think this is one of the coolest products I've seen from your magazine! Love it!
Very Slick - I especially love the dog collars! I'm definitely getting one for my Chessie!
Great idea -- I love mine! Functional, practical, attractive, comfortable, and carefully tailored to your individual specifications: what a treat in this "one-size-fits-all" world!
Nice looking gear! A great gift for your spouse.
What a great product and an even greater thing they are doing for our service men and women!
What a cool idea. I am going to have to get one. Great that some of the proceeds go to a such an awsome foundation. Keep up the good work in bringing our attention to such products OL!
I have several and they are great... I need a new watchband and will be getting it from SurvivalStraps... So rugged and good looking... You're missing out if you pass this up...
Awesome products! I've purchased several and will be purchasing more. Great gifts! Thanks Survival Straps!
This is such a cool idea. I love my Survival Strap bracelet. They come in many colors, look great, and are very durable and functional. That plus the donation to The Wounded Warrior Project makes this product a great buy.
makes total sense.
Very original, totally practical, and a great cause to boot.
They look cool. I will have to get one.
This looks great. Will have to get one. Why didn't someone think of this sooner???
