Our guitar straps are hand-made in Devon, England by fifth generation leather crafting family, Heistercamp.

With tradition dating back to 1884, Nigel, Alaine, James and Craig pride themselves on making world class, premium quality guitar straps.

The leather and suede for each strap is carefully selected before it's run through a knife-press to create the components which will form your finished guitar strap. Each strap is stitched carefully around the edges before the holes are hand-punched. Then the final touch is a bespoke Effected signal icon is pressed into the leather.

We use offcuts leftover from the hides to create a leather Effected tag which comes with each strap. We then use remaining offcuts to create our Effected leather key fobs in an effort to avoid any waste.

Each guitar strap is made using either black or dark brown pull-up leather with colour matching suede lining and ochre stitching.

Key measurements:
Strap width is 3”
*Strap length is medium/48" (43"-56")
Feeder strap width is 1 ⅛ ”
8mm button holes

*The first number is the length of the strap when set in the middle of its available adjustment. The bracketed numbers show the range of length that is covered by the adjustment.

There is only one size available.

Our straps are hand made from full-grain leather. Please be aware that the hides contain natural creasing and markings. This creates depth and character to the straps and makes each item unique.

Cleaning: Use a slightly damp cloth to remove any dirt or stickiness. Avoid excess water. Gentle veg based soaps can be used but only sparingly.

Scratches: For little touch-ups use high quality leather dressing containing a dye (e.g. renovating polish) Rub in to minimise appearance of small scratches. We recommend you test a small patch first just in case!

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place ideally. Avoid extremes of temperature and water! Hanging it up straight can help avoid damage or bending.

Moisturise: Just as you would a new pair of leather shoes, we recommend wearing your strap in initially. If it starts to feel or look dry then use a good quality leather conditioner. However, avoid water and never speed up the drying process with a hair dryer or radiator. If your strap gets wet then simply hang it up at room temperature to dry.

And finally, we recommend your guitar strap stays out of direct sunlight!

Ensure the strap is securely attached to the guitar before use to avoid accidental drops.

Check for signs of wear, such as cracks or fraying, which could compromise safety.

Do not overload the strap with excessive weight beyond its intended use.

Keep away from water, extreme heat, or direct sunlight to preserve leather quality.

Follow our care instructions to maintain durability and safety.

Custom made by Heistercamp in Devon, England using premium Italian leather.

The leather is naturally vegetable tanned using only natural dyes and is not treated with potentially harmful chemicals. This means that allergic skin reactions are unlikely.

Vegetable tanning is the most eco-friendly tanning method available:

- The tannins used are plant-based, making them safe for both people and the planet.
- Sewage sludge can be recovered and repurposed into materials like building bricks.
- Items made from vegetable-tanned leather are durable and can last for generations.
- When their life cycle ends, these products can be easily disposed of and turned into agricultural fertilisers.
