Well Strap Me Vitals! We're Lucky Now.

 

You miss a lot if you don't look close enough to the products in the Camera Electronic shop. The new premises near the corner of Murray and Queen Street was where I saw the Lucky camera straps seen in these pictures. I am guessing they are also at the 230 Stirling Street address as well...but in the new shop they stood out under the bright lighting...

Well there are enough colours and sizes - textures and materials, widths and lengths - to satisfy any camera's need. I can see wides, narrows, and wrist straps there in many browns and blacks. I'd be willing to bet they made other colours as well.

 

They're a composite style - leather shoulder or neck pad and tough woven section that runs down to the camera rings. Properly sewn at the junction too, in military or saddle-making style. Tough as old boots.

They seem to be packaged distinctively - there's not many products that you can buy today that are wrapped in twine in tissue in a fitted box. Quite an old-world experience.

 

But take note - it's not the old Asian or European world we're dealing with here. These are made in Melbourne. You're supporting Australian industry while you're supporting your Japanese camera...

They are extremely well-made  - make sure you see them when you visit the new shop. Remember that Christmas present season is just about to start - get in early.

The new Camera Electronic store is now open at 2/324 Murray St, Perth
