The full process of making this classic adjustable camera strap using simple hand tools.
This premium leather camera strap is made from a 7oz full-grain, veg tan french vachette (vachetta), carefully crafted by hand from start to finish. This construction uses only the highest quality hand set copper rivets and hand stitched polyester threads, making this the type of product to last a lifetime.
