What its Made of
These professional photographers leather camera straps are made of natural veg tanned leather and will require some periodic care. Don't sweat! All the info you need to know can be found in our faq and care guide. Look after them and they will outlive you.
I only use selected hides from a single tannery in Italy, as the harness will ages, it will generate a patina that is completely unique to you. Learn more about my choice of leather and why it is important.
To prevent dye leeching to your clothes and improve comfort the flesh side and and edges are slicked, this removes the "furry" feel and gives it a smoother feel and better fit.

How long will my order Take?
The Saying Goes, good things come to those who wait.
You are not ordering from Amazon here! These are premium slow made leather goods, made to order. Using traditonal techniques.
Typical turn around is 2-3 working days for small items and straps and 2-5 working days for slings and harnesses. Trust me, they are worth the wait.
If youre in a pinch. just fire me off an email I may be able to rush manufacture for a £10 rushed order charge
Delivery
For Harnesses delivery comes in two flavours, Express and Regular. Express is a 24 hour service and Regular is a 48 hour service, these times are upon completion of manufacture so it all depends on how impatient you are!
For small items it is sent 1st class large letter.
Who doesnt love a bit of TLC?
For conditioning and refinishing get yourself a good quality leather wax or oil (for example Terrago Mink Oil). Using a soft, clean cloth apply a pea sized bit of oil to the strap working it in on the skin side (outside) only, rub it in thoroughly and leave it to dry, removing excess that doesn't soak in. Apply a second coat if you feel it needs it, and you're done.
Easy peasy right?
Breaking in
Because of the use of vegetable tanned leather, all my straps and harnesses will mould to your shape and fit like a glove. The only way to get through this breaking in period is to... You guessed it. Wear it!
Patina Rushing/Colour Deepening
If you want to rush the development of the leathers patina or want to deepen the pieces colour, a nifty hack is to leave your strap or harness outside in the sun. Do ensure you do this only when there is no rain forecast, the straps are shower resistant but it will not like a downpour.
