The Fab' F5.6 Mark II adjustable leather camera strap is handcrafted in Montreal, Canada from premium full-grain leather made in Quebec, Canada by Tannerie des Ruisseaux. Designed for photographers who value simplicity and versatility, the F5.6 Mark II can be worn around the neck or as a crossbody strap. Lightweight, discreet, and highly versatile, it is the perfect companion for photographers who like to travel light while benefiting from the comfort, durability, and versatility of a fully adjustable design.
The new Mark II version introduces several thoughtful improvements while preserving the minimalist design that made the original F5.6 so popular. The strap ends are now hand-stitched with exceptionally strong waxed thread instead of metal rivets, eliminating the risk of rivets rubbing against and damaging the camera body over time.
In addition, the sliding keeper that secures the adjustment strap is now handcrafted from leather and hand-stitched rather than being made from metal. This feature further reduces the risk of scratches while providing a more secure hold on the adjustment strap.
The new leather feels supple from the very first use, requires no break-in period, and offers improved resistance to moisture and daily wear while maintaining the same exceptional durability and strength as the previous generation.
