Barton 1972 is the label of the owner-operated design studio "Annie Barton".
The artistically braided Barton1972 camera carrying straps and camera straps by the couple Carmen and Victor have stood for timeless elegance, craftsmanship, and durability since 2010, reflecting their shared love of photography as well as their strong commitment to the global photo community.
Their images, whether on Instagram, Facebook, or their own blog, as well as their detailed tests of various cameras on YouTube, give an impression of the importance photography holds in their lives—a passion that is reflected in the perfectionist craftsmanship of their camera straps braided from the finest leather.
The braided camera straps consist of six to eight individual strands of extra thick top grain leather, which are shaped into a complex boxy, flat, or rope-like form using a special laying and braiding technique.
This laying and braiding process can only be performed by hand and takes several hours. Its special design, comfortable wear, hand-processed leather, and the extremely elaborate braiding technique behind the form make Barton1972 camera straps and camera hand straps probably the most beautiful leather camera accessories on the market.
