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.

The F1 is the camera strap simplified to it’s most essential elements – exactly how I like things. It’s easy to adjust and slim enough to bundle up and stuff in my jacket pocket with my X100F. Highly recommended.

It was hard for me at first, to understand how a camera strap could change how I interacted with my camera. But there it was, attaching my Simpler F1 gave me a whole new way to shoot with my Fuji X100F.
It felt accessible, faster, safer and it gave me a more efficient shooting experience AND it looked good to boot!
Thank you!
PS. I hope you consider Making more products…

I got a red F1 and it looks stunning. The stitching looks so sturdy that I have no problem at all trusting my camera to hang from it. It’s light as a feather and the minimal design is right up my alley.

Had the F1 for a few months now, and this is a great camera strap! It’s attached to my Fuji X-E3 with Peak Design quick release, and it all wears very comfortably. The strap feels nice and light, but very sturdy. Love the little raised thread that helps lock the strap loop ends in place, what a clever and effective design.
Maybe it’s just the size of my torso, but the part of the strap you pull on to adjust the length sits too high up and behind my shoulder when I’m wearing it sling style. Like I have to push my camera back behind me a little bit first to get to the adjuster, pull the adjuster, and then I swing my camera back in front of me. Or maybe if I take the plunge and do away with the quick release, I’ll have the length for the adjuster to sit more in front of me.
In any case, I really like this strap, and you might too.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Yes, the PD quick-releases have added a very significant amount of length to the strap (about 7″). Remove them, and you’ll find that the adjuster is better positioned. Bonus: without the added bulk of the quick-releases, you may not feel the need to remove the strap!

I bought the F1, and received it only 3 days after (living in Denmark).
The strap doesn’t seem like much, but it certainly stick to the promise, being a camera strap and doing what it’s supposed to.
I just plain love it. Easy adjustment, and love that I can let the strap run through the D-rings, and then becoming a wrist strap.
Don’t rely on all the positive ratings. Just buy it.

I wear my mirrorless Fujifilm xh1 camera up to eight-nine hours a day when traveling. I needed a strap that was comfortable, lightweight, and well-designed. Strength was of paramount importance to me, but I loathe bulky straps. The simplr strap meets all my criteria. It is lightweight, comfortable to wear, functions beautifully and “disappears” when I’m wearing it. I couldn’t be any happier!

This strap, the F1 is just brilliant and if I were asked to suggest an improvement with its design, I could not!
I ordered a grey strap for my Fuji X-T3.
What I love about the strap is that it can be shortened and lengthened with ease.
It is light in weight, soft to the touch (comfortable) and just drops snuggly around the camera when its back in the bag.
