What are the best neck straps for a Leica M11?

Question

Does anyone have recommendations for a neck strap for the M11 that actually feels premium and doesnt dig into your shoulder after ten minutes? I am honestly fed up with the leather one that came in the box, its so stiff and honestly feels like it belongs on a much cheaper camera and it keeps sliding off when Im trying to do street photography here in Brooklyn.

I am so excited because Im finally taking this thing to Tokyo in three weeks but I need a replacement like yesterday. My budget is around 150 bucks. Ive looked at Artisan and Artist but there are so many options Im just lost... what are you guys actually using day to day?

Regarding what #1 said about "The stock Leica strap is way too stiff,..."

I totally agree, but unfortunately the Peak Design was a letdown. It felt way too clinical for an M11 and just wasn't as good as I expected for the price. I much prefer the COOPH Rope Strap 100cm. It is super soft and actually stays put. Quick tip: rope straps are way better for Tokyo since leather gets really sweaty in the heat!

The stock Leica strap is way too stiff, ngl! I switched to the Peak Design Slide Lite SLY-BK-3 Black and it is amazing for street photography. It is super comfy and wont break the bank! Check these out:
