Accordion & Melodeon Straps for Comfort and Support
Browse our range of accordion straps designed for piano accordions, melodeons, and related instruments. Choosing the right straps is essential for comfort, balance, and long-term playing enjoyment.
Choosing the Right Accordion Straps
Choosing the right accordion straps makes a significant difference to comfort and control. The most important factor is strap width — lighter instruments suit narrower straps, while larger 96 and 120 bass accordions benefit from wider, more supportive designs.
If you would like a fuller explanation of how width, fit and support affect playing comfort, read our complete guide to choosing accordion straps.
As a general guide:
-
45mm straps – lightweight and ideal for melodeons and smaller accordions
-
60mm straps – a balanced choice for most players
-
80–90mm straps – increased support for heavier instruments
-
100mm+ straps – maximum support for 96 and 120 bass accordions
If you're unsure where to start, this collection allows you to compare widths and styles to find the best fit.

Fit, Comfort & Playing Position
Alongside width, the correct strap length and padding are important. Properly fitted straps help maintain playing posture, improve balance, and reduce strain during longer sessions.
For additional stability, many players also choose to use an accordion back strap, which helps keep shoulder straps correctly aligned while playing.
Italian-Made Quality
Many of our straps are made in Italy using traditional materials and construction methods. These straps are designed for durability, comfort, and long-term reliability.
