Vegan leather camera straps aren't just for vegans. They're a great solution for photographers that want a strong, waterproof, vibrant and long lasting strap for their camera.
Rigu's vegan leather camera straps come in 100cm &120cm lengths in a wide variety of colours, handmade in our Lake District workshop, all ready to be dispatched straight away.
But what if you need a different length? Or you'd like different coloured rivets that match your style?
We can produce a custom vegan leather camera strap to your specifications. You choose the strap length, strap colour, and metal hardware to get a strap that's perfect for your needs.
Pricing
Custom straps are priced the same as a pre-made vegan leather strap, £25 including delivery in the UK.
This price applies to standard style straps. If you have unusual requirements that will take a lot more time to produce or use considerably more materials a surcharge may be applied, which will be made clear before the order is produced..
Strap Information & Fitment
Rigu makes simple, comfortable, strong camera straps. They're lug mount straps (connecting to the camera with a split ring), and are currently all produced from 12mm wide vegan leather. The vegan leather we use is a plasticised webbing with a textured finish. It doesn't really feel like leather, but it's comfortable to wear, waterproof, easy to clean, and very strong.
At 12mm wide, these straps are appropriate to use with more lightweight camera setups. The material is strong, the rivets are strong, and the split rings can take 16kg, but you need to think about what is a comfortable amount of weight to wear with that width of material. Personally, I'd go up to 1.5kg with a strap of this width, which covers a lot of camera & lens combos.
Being lug mount straps, they are not appropriate for flat mount camera strap connections. If you are unsure what connection type you need on your camera, feel free to get in touch. If you need a flat mount, we can't currently produce a strap for you (though that will hopefully be possible in the future), but have plenty of flat mount options available.
Colour & Hardware Options
There are a wide variety of colours that our customs length straps can be produced in. We stock most of the colours so that a strap can be produced immediately, but for some colours there may be a few days lead time whilst we get more stock of material.
In terms of the hardware, there's a few different rivet options available. The metal colours (nickel, brass, gold, black) are all "double cap" rivets, meaning that they have the rounded part on the top and bottom of the rivet. For the colourful rivets (red, blue, and yellow) they are "single cap", which means that only the top side will have the colourful cap, on the underside it's the standard silver-grey metal colour.
If you want to mix rivet styles, feel free! There's an option in the order form for mixed rivets, please specify which colours (and the order you'd like them to be applied to the strap) in the comments on the form.
How To Order
With this being a custom process, and Rigu not always having every colour combo available ready to go, it's not like placing a regular order.
There's a request form below which covers the different options. We'll get back to you as soon as possible to confirm the order, provide a delivery estimate, and then take payment. It's a little more work, but it ensures you only pay for something when you know if can be produced and delivered in a timescale that works for you.
If you're looking to order more than one strap at the same time, please email info@rigu.co.uk directly.
