Joel,
The straps for the first couple photos are from Halios, the watchmaker, and not available without buying a Halios watch. I've encouraged Jason Lim of Halios to sell the straps separately, as they're wonderful, but it hasn't happened yet.
The strap on the Dan Henry chronograph is a Herren Marke, from here in the States. It was a small, one-man business, but I don't think he's making straps any more.
Regarding recommendations for leather straps, you can check out these sites in the USA:
Crown and Buckle: https://tinyurl.com/z554uskk
Hodinkee (whom you probably already know): https://shop.hodinkee.com/collections/straps
Worn & Wound: https://windupwatchshop.com/collections/straps
Barton: https://www.bartonwatchbands.com
In Europe, there is Colareb in Italy, but I've found their quality and consistency to be iffy. There's also Di-Modell, who I think is from Germany. IIRC, they make all of Sinn's leather straps.
