Soft and pliable straight from the box — each strap is hand conditioned with leather balm before it leaves the workshop, giving the Buttero an immediate suppleness that will deepen further with wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe hardware is solid brass throughout — brass rivets and brass split rings. Solid brass develops a warm, lived-in patina over time that complements the dark brown Buttero beautifully. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe 30mm Buttero neck pad is attached with brass rivets and spreads the load across the neck for a more comfortable carry — particularly on longer shooting days. The straps are 13mm wide x 2mm thick keeping the overall look slim and uncluttered and best suited to lighter camera bodies with small to medium lenses. The design is intentionally minimal — the brass does the talking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe Marlowe suits film cameras, mirrorless cameras, and rangefinders equally well. It's a particularly natural companion for vintage and classic camera bodies — Leica M series, Voigtlander, Rolleiflex, Contax, and the Fujifilm X series all carry the Marlowe exceptionally well\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2mm full grain Buttero vegetable tanned leather, Conceria Walpier, Tuscany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour: dark brown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e13mm strap width\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e30mm Buttero leather neck pad, attached with brass rivets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid brass split rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand conditioned with leather balm before dispatch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in 95cm and 110cm (measured split ring to split ring)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eLength guide\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe 95cm is a classic neck strap length — camera sits comfortably at chest level.

The dark brown Buttero will develop a deep patina with use — softening in the areas that flex most and holding its structure where it matters. The brass rivets will darken overall with polished highlights in wear areas. With regular use the Marlowe will soon look like a vintage classic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe strap arrives pre-conditioned with leather balm. No immediate care needed. If the leather starts to feel dry apply a small amount of leather balm or quality leather conditioner to maintain suppleness and encourage even patina development. Wipe brass hardware with a dry cloth — do not polish, as the natural patina development is part of the design. Keep away from prolonged water exposure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eA gift for the photographer who has everything\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe Marlowe makes an great gift for film photographers, vintage camera collectors, and anyone who appreciates considered craftsmanship. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Henry and Wilde","offers":[{"title":"95cm","offer_id":50644596097261,"sku":null,"price":120.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"110cm","offer_id":50644596130029,"sku":null,"price":120.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/6982\/4237\/files\/Marlowe_camera_strap_05.jpg?v=1788774045","url":"https:\/\/www.henryandwilde.com.au\/products\/marlowe-leather-camera-strap","provider":"Henry and Wilde","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
