Hand strap prototypes are finished!

We have been getting lots of interest in our new line of hand straps, so here is a sneak peak at one of our first prototypes. Our goal is to build a style foreword hand strap that is super comfy and easy to use. To accomplish this, we are integrating two key design aspects. First we are placing the plastic buckle at the bottom of the strap, away from all the action. For some reason, most hand straps have the adjustment at the top near the thumb and forefinger.... why? Also, we are routing the 3/8" webbing along two different paths along the back of the hand, distributing the weight of the camera over a wider area which will be the perfect comfy factor in hand with genuine lamb leather and a thin layer of foam. If you use hand straps, be sure to let us know what's on your wish list.  Thoughts?

I am so excited for the release of these hand straps! I've been checking back all of the time to see when they will be released. My only insight would be to make sure that the strap works for smaller hands as well so that the top of the strap doesn't cut into the hand uncomfortably.

Can't wait for the release!!
