Crafted from vegetable tanned Creta leather, the sling bag is designed for riders with a three-point stabilising strap which prevents the bag from swinging back and forth. It can be carried on a single shoulder, across the chest and even hand held.

There’s also the ability to get twice the storage space when you loosen the front leather straps.

3. Barton1972 Braided Style Camera Strap, S$180

This braided style camera strap is not only strong but also comfortable around your neck, thanks to its structural design which slightly reduces the weight around your neck.

It is crafted using six individual strands of leather that have been hand braided together using one of Barton1972’s most complex and unique braiding technique.

4. Leica SOFORT 2, S$500
