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 a fantastic camera strap. Minimalist, light and easy to adjust. Perfect for my Leica CL. I would recommend this strap if you have a small lightweight camera and you do not need a big strap with unnecessary hardware.

I’ve tried many straps, from big names to not so big names, and nothing compares. This is a thing of beauty! It’s sleek, it’s strong, it’s lightweight, it’s minimal. It pairs perfectly with my X100V and X-T3.
Don’t think about it, just buy it!!!

I love a minimalist strap, and this improves on others I’ve tried. Being able to go from sling style to a wrist strap in literal seconds is fantastic. Strong, durable, no excess.

Simply the best camera strap I’ve ever owned. And I’ve tried quite a few. Works very well in every configuration (neck, sling and wrist strap) and can be quickly and easily adjusted.

Sleek, easy to adjust and lightweight. It’s honestly a fantastic strap that works well. Made in USA need I say more. I’m very happy with my strap and the coyote brown looks fantastic with my durasilver xpro3.

I decided to give this strap a try after reading the reviews, despite initially looking for a detachable one such as those by Peak Design. This strap turned out to be perfect for my camera, small enough to not take up too much space in my camera dry box, and being easy to use. The clean design of the strap is a huge plus for me too.

I now have two Simplr straps. The F1 and the older M1. The M1 I use across a couple cameras, however I wanted a dedicated strap o for a Nikonos V, but have recently been using it as a cross body strap for an F5 for which it is surprisingly comfortable. I am a big fan of the clean and simple design of the Simplr strap.

Every photographer knows how important camera straps are, but it is very hard to find a good one. I believe all camera straps should be made like this F1. Functional, strong, minimal and good looking. Yes, it is nice to look at. It is not bulky and has no metal part to damage the surface of my camera in my bag. Thoughtful design.

I honestly wasn’t expecting much from this strap when I ordered it but was pleasantly surprised. It’s well made, lightweight, versatile, minimal, and nice to look at it. I actually planned to pair my camera with a strap that was “higher end” to go better with the body but there is no denying the functionality of this strap. I hope they make the F1ultralight in castor gray at some point! Beautiful color.
