These are the best quality lashing straps we've come across. When we discovered Austere Manufacturing we liked what we saw right away. The Austere buckles are the brainchild of Uriel Eisen. As with many great products that come to market, Uriel saw a need for a best made lashing strap and made one to meet the highest standards.
Plastic buckles would often loosen time and time again which meant having to dismount to re-fasten gear. Worse yet, any plastic buckles that would fail, puts your gear and mission in peril. At the time he was working on NASA space suit designs and decided to build a better buckle.
Uriel enlisted space in his buddy’s barn, moved in a CNC machine and started designing. After many iterations, the Austere cam buckle was created. It is designed to secure your gear without sacrificing weight. Highly versatile, highly durable, extremely capable buckles and lashing straps with a multitude of uses for securing gear, whether it be bikepacking, backcountry skiing, overlanding, backpacking, or even holding up your pants.
