Silicone strap to replace comfort strap?

[mullannix930]

I have an Oceanic Mako 2 mask that I put RX lenses in. I love the mask but am thinking about replacing the comfort nylon strap. Is it possible? I have not looked at the buckle area on the mask much but know there looks like an adjustment for a rubber strap.

im just looking at the ability for the strap to compensate for hood compression, and nylon sucks at that.

No specific info, pics would help but it likely can be done.

Where do you live? This looks like a pretty standard buckle type so a generic strap of the right width should work.

the reason I ask where you live is I have some spare masks, black that may work for you, I find diving clear skirt masks to be pretty bad for internal reflections.

That one is my backup. My primary is the same but all black and RX lenses

If you were close I would give you a replacement.

I have nylon/neoprene replacement straps, but was just wondering if a silicone one would work
