The Rodchenko is a very supple yet strong camera strap designed by me, a photographer, for photographers. It is available in regular and custom lengths. The Rodchenko is basically my Eggleston strap but with a wide shoulder pad.

I am a photographer based in the UK and I make my straps by hand from the finest quality Italian and US leathers. For strength and environmental reasons I use only vegetable/bark tanned bovine shoulder leathers.

‘VEGETABLE/BARK TANNING IS A PROCESS THAT COMES FROM NATURE AND RETURNS TO NATURE IN FULL HARMONY’

The strap is held together using solid metal grommets - these are machined in the UK using stainless steel for a classy look and feel, and to provide a secure hold on the leather.

The Rodchenko is 11mm wide and will fit all digital and classic cameras with an eyelet or slot style strap attachment. The leather end will unhook from the grommets so it can be threaded through the existing strap attachments on the camera, or, you can use the split rings that are supplied with the strap. If you would like to check how my Rodchenko will fit your camera, please feel free to ask.

The shoulder pad is 315mm long and 32mm wide - it is very supple so it will easily wrap around your wrist or contour itself snugly to the shoulder. The shoulder pad will be supplied in the matching leather, but, if you prefer a different colour to the strap please request it at checkout.

REGULAR LENGTH £45.95 - A finished length of 115cm

CUSTOM LENGTH £49.95 - If you require a customised length I can make the Rodchenko to any finished length up to 145cm (sometimes longer by request). To order, select 'CUSTOM LENGTH' in the drop down box and then state the finished length you require in the additional Information message box that is provided on the checkout page just before you pay. The measurement must be in whole centimetres please. The measurement is taken from the bend / loop in the leather on each end of the strap.

You may want to consider Camera protection pads in matching leather that act as protection against possible scratching if you are using the split rings. I also sell Grommet covers in matching leathers and various accessories that fit the Rodchenko including Nylon loop fittings that are supplied with a strong, waterproof Nylon loop allowing for attachment to smaller cameras.

My straps are presented in a gift box and sent in environmentally friendly packaging. I offer FREE postage within the UK and only £8.95 secure shipping to the rest of the planet.
