I loved the process, it looks amazing. I'm absolutely not an expert about working with leather but I think that an improvement could be a smooth lining of the side in contact with skin just where it would create some friction with the back of your neck. During long walks cameras tend to swing around your neck and leather straps can cause some irritation. Keep it going, this channel is definitely underrated
Thanks for the message. Indeed lining the piece would be a great next step and would definitely help keep this strap going for much longer! That being said, the backside of the leather I chose is very soft so it's already quite comfortable, and adding the piece of fabric could mean a LOT of stitching by hand if you don't have a machine - and this would make the project considerably more daunting to make. That being said, when I do eventually get a sewing machine I'll probably do more straps like this but with an added liner :)
