Canvas rifle slings from Trader Keith vs NECG

They both sell one for essentially the same price.
Is one better? Are they the same?

They appears slightly different but description is essentially identical.

They LOOK like the same sling. The NECG only states 1", if you have a Merkel it takes 3/4". They are the same I have that I used to buy from Cabelas for $29 I think. I prefer them to all other slings. When they get dirty just wash them. Jeff's Outfitters has basically the same sling but it has a leather covered buckle rather than the brass keeper. I prefer the brass keeper but that's just a personal choice. I think Westley Richards has basically the same sling for more money,of course. Comfortable in the field and roll up and go in pocket if you want to take them off,although I have never had reason to do so.
