The main difference between NATO Straps and ZULU Straps

is how they are worn on your wrist.

NATO Straps have an additional strap that slides through the 2 lugs, so you have 2 straps of nylon under the watch, instead of one.

ZULU (3-Ring) Straps have only 1 long strap, made of thicker nylon cloth, and has thicker beefier buckles.

ZULU (5-Ring) Straps is similar to NATO Straps, except it is made of thicker nylon cloth, and have thicker buckles.

Still confused?

Its really easier to visualize the difference, if you see how NATOs and ZULUs are worn:
