Reasonably priced 22/18mm vintage/pilot style straps?

Hello!
I've been looking and having quite some trouble finding a strap that fits this kinda weird criteria.
It needs to be 22mm at the lugs, and I like the aggressive taper to 18mm at the clasp. Otherwise, it's gotta look okay on a vintage style flieger watch.
I like the look of this Bell and Ross strap in this light brown/beige/cream color, but also think that darker brown with some light beige stitching/accents would look nice too.

Alas, that strap is $225, and there's no way I'm spending that much lol.
Whenever I search for something similar, I inevitably end up with bell and ross "style" straps from various places, which all tend to have that weird notched shape to fit on the lugs of their "experimental" and "instrument" watches. Like this-
Anyone have any ideas? Thank you
