I had the same problem where it wouldn’t go away no matter what I did! I had mine for 3 years so I decided to just buy a new one off of Amazon. I’ve started to make it a habit to hang it up to dry after my workout instead of putting it straight into my gym bag:

It used to happen to me. I bought a replacement strap from amazon and no more cuts, not even once! I used to take my strap off as soon as the summaries came up on the screen but now I forget I am wearing it until I shower! Seriously soooo amazing. My ugly scars from the default straps are still there but slowly fading...
The straps that come with the HRM are not that good. I went through 3 and all had issues after a few months. Bought these off Amazon and haven't had a problem since.

And if you get a strap, I'd suggest getting one from Amazon and not getting one from OTF.
I ended up taking the OTF strap apart, and they're just not made very well. The contact points are super easy to break, and the way the snaps are designed, normal use of popping the pod off and on will eventually break the contact points.
This is the one I bought. It's held up really well. I'm sure the ones other people are suggesting are pretty good, too.

amazon has one that is better, less rolling and more comfy than the OTF one
