Strap for big telephoto lens?

I have been searching for a strap to carry a 600mm/800mm lens in its strap mounts. Which one do you recommend and why?

Peter,

EF or RF?

Lucky camera straps?

Would definitely go to the camera on one side and the lenses strap mount on the other. Or to the strap mount on a ARCA adapter or battery grip.

Cross body for comfort. A neck strap would be awful. I love my BR Sports Breathe. Attaching to a tripod eyelet might not be best for a super zoom, carry or quick draw. Depends on the FL and type.

Thanks! EF lenses, so 4,5 kg. I have been looking at Canon Lens Wide Strap B also. I don't think I will need quick release with this lens.
