Peak Design Form Leather Camera Strap Standard – Amber

A minimalist fixed-length leather camera strap.

When we designed Form Leather, we wanted to create a minimalist alternative to the bulky leather camera straps we had been used to. Instead of noisy mass-produced metal parts, conspicuous stitching and chunky rivets reminiscent of the "modern heritage" style, we gave Form Leather a slim shape with discreet integrated hardware for a timelessly clean look.

The premium full-grain cowhide leather* strap flows seamlessly into low-profile Anchor Link quick connectors. These connectors are a streamlined version of the iconic system found on all Peak Design straps and offer secure, easy camera attachment. An elegant aluminium ring lets you attach a free Anchor, so you can stow the strap on your body when you take the camera off.

The underside of the strap has a special sealed finish that lets the leather glide smoothly over your body while holding enough to stay on your shoulder. With four fixed-length sizes, every photographer can choose their ideal length and carry style.

*We use only leather rated gold by the Leather Working Group, which confirms compliance with the highest environmental standards – from water and energy use and chemical management to air emissions and traceability of the hides.
