This is a first. That’s why I thought I’d let you all know. 
There’s currently a rare promotion going on at my website. 10% off all straps with code SALE10. 

When I check out there is an option to pick up at downtown Toronto. Where is it? I want to see if it’s close enough for me to pickup

RocknRoll. Best of the best. I have this black is black. 

Just a question: I like straps with the length of about 120cm. I fear that this strap gets longer and longer with the weight of the camera. Is that the case?

Today I had the pleasure to visit Harry's workshop (his studio) at Toronto and picked up the strap for my M10-R.

Oh man, what a pleasant experience. I witnessed his workspace, leathers, tools. We talked about his dedications and passions to the leatherwork, and other hobbies. We even exchanged views on watches...etc. I also ordered another card wallet from him.

I am thinking to get another strap for my M11 now.

This Harry Benz shop is definitely a hidden gem in Canada! If you are around I strongly suggest to go in person to pick up your orders.

I have ordered a neck and a wrist strap from a seller on ebay : janzls - J by Janus

made in Portugal, nice quality, not expensive and nicely crafted.

NEW Leather Camera Wrist Strap | Leica Fuji X Olympus OM-D Sony A7 Lomography | eBay

The neck strap has the same design but with a buckle to adapt the length.  I like to adapt the length across the body, around the neck, above a big jacket or on a tee-shirt...

I have tried all sorts of leather straps since I stated with the M system almost 20 years ago.   Of course, I have used the nylon Leica straps, then leather from Luigi, Luxcase, and  also Arte di Mano which I loved for leather as it matched its half cases.  I have not tried the Harry Benz water buffalo leather straps but the issue I have with any kind of leather is the initial coldness to the neck when first put on.  I then stumbled across the Artist & Artisan silk straps which are not only very beautiful in my eyes, are very, very flexible/soft, can wrap around my arm for hand carry as a wrist strap, be wrapped around the lens easily and quickly put back in the bag and never feel cold against the neck.  I now use it solely for my Ms.  It comes in blue, black and red and I have all the colors.

I know it's technically not strap but I picked it up from Harry as well.

Customized card wallet, Saffiano cow leather outside, pacific blue chevre inside, with my initial imprinted.

Really nice feeling! feel better than Prada in my opinion.

Leica 14312 for M and Q series cameras. Unfortunately no longer made though available pretty easily on eBay. Light, strong, comfortable and minimal when packed. They were the supplied strap on M and R film cameras (I think one came with my M8 too).

Love my Harry Benz straps but recently bought two custom straps from Kevin Fickling. He was trained by Hermes artisans and makes straps and bags for fun because it’s his passion. Check out his work on Instagram and reach out to him if you want some beautiful straps and bags. This is a sueded alligator strap that he made for me. Quality is first rate, super soft and flexible and incredibly comfortable.
