It's Optech for me, all the way! Best of luck.
Love OpTech straps. Use them on my camera and my bag.

I use the Quick Rapid Shoulder Sling Belt Neck Strap for Camera SLR/DSLR Nikon Canon Sony which I purchased of of Ebay brand new. Works like a charm!

Peak Design SL-AS-3 Slide Camera Strap In blue and red. They are only slightly narrower than a seatbelt and the strap is the same strength and softness of a seatbelt. I don’t like hooking something to my tripod mount, but like to carry cross body. This strap was perfect. It is comfortable, easily adjusted on the go, doesn’t slip and parts are replaceable should one of the attachments wear out one day. It is built like a tank, but is very comfortable. I don’t expect to need or want to replace it in the next several years.

Peak Design for me. It'll be a cold in July when I use a sling attachment such as Black Rapid.

I also recommend Peak Design Straps, not only for all of the reasons noted in posts throughout this thread, but also because they offer a range of parts like Anchor Links that enable customization. I am writing a brief paper with pictures about how these parts can be used to make a more robust attachment to a DSLR and will post it either here or in a new topic.

They also have a really nice dual sling strap system, that really does a great job of spreading the weight out across your shoulders instead of on your neck.

I've used this after seeing Bob with his and two cameras with different lenses. I've also used it to support my Mamiya RB67 (a heavy beast). I've adjusted the straps so that the waist level finder is at the correct distance and can "hand hold" the thing down to 1/8 second shutter speed.
Nothing but good thing to say about the OpTech system.
