Straps & Clasps
As I wear different watch straps, I'm beginning to understand why I like bracelets over leather or NATO straps. The tail.
I used to associate a bracelet with being better because metal is better than leather or fabric. However, I suppose, as far as wearability, reliability and maintenance, they are all about equal.
But the tail... I just really dislike the tail of leather/rubber/NATO straps poking out and catching on things; especially on NATOs. The keepers for me do not stay put because I like to wear the watch a little loose, not snug at all. Therefore I always have this strap tail bugging the crap out of me when I want to wear a strap that is not a bracelet.
I went to Amazon to check out some silicone straps & deployant clasps and it appears that deployant clasps cannot be retrofit onto straps that were not designed for it unless you either cut off the excess (might cheapen the look I want) or leave the excess as the tail I'd like to avoid.
So where do you all get your silicone straps with deployant clasps from? I'm specifically looking for one in teal/Tiffany blue.

This might also be a solution.
The rest of the strap goes under the other part of the strap.
To @Leijona's point...

Like in a Milanese.
Intriguing.
Do these have a name?

Not sure. Roughly translated: rubber strap with a handy under tuck closing...?

Appreciate the info. I now find a Buckle-and-Tuck strap on Strapsco using the under tuck search term along with some other options.

No don't do it, I was only joking. Learn to let your strap flap dude 😜.
