Marmaduke Feather Strap V – Smooth Comfort, Bold Design, Universal Fit

The Marmaduke Feather Strap V takes saxophone support to the next level with a design that places the instrument’s weight on your shoulders—not your neck. Its newly rounded aluminum bars are crafted for comfort, ensuring they won’t pinch or press against your neck during long playing sessions.

Featuring an upgraded, larger slider for effortless height adjustments and a wider bar spread, the Feather V offers a highly personalized fit. The pure brass hook enhances resonance and tonal response, while the neck pad add an extra layer of luxurious comfort.

With a sleek black synthetic leather finish accented by bold red stitching, this strap is as stylish as it is functional. Its compact design fits neatly into an alto sax bell for easy portability, and the adjustable side straps and cords ensure a secure fit across all saxophone types.

One size fits Soprano, Alto, Tenor, and Baritone saxophones. Say goodbye to neck pain and hello to greater freedom and focus in your playing.

Note: The crossbar in the stock photo is slightly different from the one we have in stock (see out photo).

Marmaduke Straps

Marmaduke is a Tokyo-based Japanese manufacturer renowned for its innovative saxophone and woodwind straps, particularly the acclaimed Feather Strap series. Founded in 2013 by designer Alex Miyatake, Marmaduke revolutionized traditional neck straps by introducing ergonomic shoulder and back support systems that significantly reduce neck strain and enhance playing comfort.

Marmaduke straps are distinguished by their use of high-quality materials, including pure brass hooks for optimal resonance and durable cords tested to withstand up to 200 kg of force. The designs prioritize both functionality and aesthetics, featuring adjustable aluminum bars and genuine leather construction.

Endorsed by prominent saxophonists such as Mark Turner, Ben Wendel, and Melissa Aldana, Marmaduke has established itself as a trusted name among professionals worldwide.
