Stowed Safely, to Shooting Freely
Go from having your camera securely cinched up, for easy mobility — to slung low, for unhindered portrait and landscape shooting — just by pulling the F1’s adjustment tab.
Instead of tacking-on over-engineered hardware, it’s made from the same strong, flexible, lightweight fabric as the strap — plus a simple yet secure sliplok that won’t budge under load, no matter how heavy your camera.
One Strap That’s Up for Anything
To be clear, the F1 functions beautifully as a neck strap, but it’s much more versatile than that.
Quickly lengthen the F1 to use as a cross-body/sling strap, or loop the webbing through the D-rings to make a wrist strap — all without carrying (or remembering to carry) extra stuff.
We’ve heard tales of photographers literally tying their F1’s onto things, and attaching the D-rings or adjustment tab to carabiners for peace-of-mind. Use your imagination — F1 can take it!
Light, Strong & Built Tough in USA
A lot of camera straps are stuck in the past … unnecessarily bulky, made from traditional low-tech materials and metal hardware.
We take a different approach, using materials found in modern expedition gear, where strength-to-weight ratio is critical, and exposure to the elements is a given.
If you’re looking for a faux-heirloom made of leather and steel, you’ll have to look elsewhere — because we won’t make camera straps that rust, rot or crack after a downpour (especially for today’s weather-sealed cameras).
Sleek Where it Matters Most
Not all cameras are the same, so we’ve got two optimized mounting options, reducing bulk around the hand when possible.
For cameras that require a “traditional” flat mount, we use hardware developed by aerospace engineers, for cameras being sent to … you guessed it … space. And to tidy up the loose ends, we developed a streamlined installation method.
The barely-there lug mount version (shown here) comes with our proprietary Standard Split Rings, made from a steel and magnesium alloy that’s 25% stronger than stainless steel. It’s almost like holding a naked camera — but much more secure.

Bought this for my Canon AE1 program. The F1 has a clean design that compliments any camera. It doesn’t “scream” name brand, but instead looks sleek and reliable. Very pleased with how direct and easy it is to adjust. It’s a camera strap and that’s all it needs to be!

I ordered two F1 straps recently. Today I attached one to my X-T30 and I’m extremely happy with it.
The strap is unassuming (branding is on the inside of the strap!), light, flexible and is very well made. It’s really confortable and I love the fact that it is narrow at both ends and doesn’t have any bulky elements there, close to the camera, like PeakDesign straps have. This makes it very easy to hold the camera both horizontally and vertically, while wearing the camera strapped diagonally across the chest.
Your designs and workmanship are great!

Loving my black F1 that arrived with me in London this week for my Fuji x100V. This strap and the camera seem to be a perfect match. The camera being to me like the black dress of cameras and the strap the most understated yet also functional accessory.
Thank you for your great customer service and a great product. Form follows function but you have nailed both

This is my third Simplr strap, and first F1 model (heavier camera). Attaches differently than M1 but followed the diagram- no problem.
No metal parts to scratch anything, plenty strong, enough length for using cross-body. Great products!

This might be my new favorite strap. It’s comfortable, and it holds my F2 securely while looking understated and classy.

I purchased an F1 strap for my Fuji X-Pro 3 and wow. This is easily the most comfortable and versatile strap I have bought. Unlike my high end leather camera straps, the F1 is incredibly lightweight, not bulky, and easily wraps around your wrist.
Where it really shines is when it’s worn as a sling across your chest. The mechanism to make the strap tighter or looser is absolutely perfect and works without any issues. If anything I wish Simplr offered a wider version for larger/heavier camera bodies.
The F1 was worth every penny… it’s absolutely perfect, especially when traveling.

The design of the F1 strap looked ideal for my Olympus mirrorless camera, so I decided to give it a try after being disappointed by other well-known brands. I must say it was “love at first sight” as soon as I attached it to the camera and started using it. I like the great quality, the lightweight hardware that won’t scratch my camera, the clean terminations, the fact that it takes minimal space in my bag, the easy adjustability, the green color, and of course, the overall simplicity of the design.
Although the width of the strap in perfect for my E-M1 MkII, I think a wider one would be better for the full-frame crowd. I hope all the necessary components are available off-the-shelf, so you can make it.
Bottom line: after being a photo enthusiast for fifty years, this is the best strap I have ever used, by a good margin. Probably the best strap in the world. It’s that simple!
