Custom strap design

Tom Foster

I'm making a custom strap for my camera. This is my current design: http://imgur.com/3gxRxvQ.jpg

Any suggestions?

I suggest you check your link. It doesn't lead to where I
think you intended the view to go.

It does for me! Although I don't know how people have been commenting on it!

Just trying to do you a favor, pal. I don't see any strap design here. This
is a screenshot of what comes up for me:

I think that the blue banner is the strap design, am I right OP?

I think it looks nice. Where are you getting it manufactured?

I thought that was a logo design. I was expecting a design for a
strap with some feature not found on other camera straps.

Yeah, that's the one I mean, the white border looks wider than it is though, was probably going to go with a UK manufacturer called Custom Camera Straps!

Logo but no strap

It is an attractive logo but what is the strap design? Is it nylon or neoprene or something else? How does it attach?

I've gone with a different website eventually but ordering from the States so it will take a while to get here I'm sure (and who knows if there'll be customs charges?). The strap I've ordered if I remember correctly is 2 inch wide leather with suede backing. Fastens on as the original straps do. I'll try to remember to post a picture when it comes. I'll be using it more for advertising than anything else. One sale should pay back what I paid for it, a no-brainer really!
I have a Black Rapid Sport if I'm needing something more comfortable for a long day out or whatever!

To each his own. I gave up leather camera straps for nylon or neoprene/nylon about 40 years ago. The unyielding leather holding a DSLR/lens combo is uncomfortable and when I perspire (maybe no one sweats in Scotland) it gets more uncomfortable and even smells. When the nylon or neoprene gets dirty or anything else I can take in the shower with me or wash it in the sink. There is one company in the USA (Optech) that makes them with your logo. Don't know about pricing, but they did it for Nilonians.

Just got it yesterday actually! It's 2 inch wide leather with soft suede back so really nice and comfortable!


Much thicker than the original nikon one!
