CINDY X HENRI WRIST STRAP by Eric Kim. Kyoto 2017

HENRI” by ERIC KIM camera wrist-strap is hand-crafted with love from start to finish.

Rather than other mass-produced products, each strap has the soul of the artisan infused into it. Crafted from supple leather, each strap is unique and one-of-a-kind.

Like the Japanese Aesthetic of ‘Wabi-Sabi‘ — each strap reveals beautiful imperfections, and will wear with you beautifully over time, and will bear the traces of your future adventures.

Story Behind HENRI STRAP

The HENRI neck strap, HENRI wrist strap, and ERICKIM strap are both 100% handmade, crafted with care from start to finish. Each HENRI strap is hand-made by two of our friends, Lan and Uyen who are a leather craftsmen and artists in Saigon.

Cindy and I are their clients and collaborators, and we worked together with them to design the strap. Since they are our friends and collaborators, they have always set the price for the straps to cover their costs and labor. Lan and Uyen source the leather, handmake the straps during the weekdays between music gigs, and ship them to California from Saigon.

Rather than mass produced, these are handmade in small, limited-quantity batches in order to preserve a level of excellent craftsmanship and quality. Each strap is unique.

Once they get to California, Eric and I, (and now with the help of our loving and supportive family) work to quality check, finish, and package each strap:

Why buy from HAPTIC aka Cindy & Eric?

Unlike huge, anonymous factories, this is the entire operation: Eric, me, my family, Lan, and Uyen. We are transparent about the labor practices behind the straps because we are proud and love each product we make.

We live in Vietnam currently and are very cognizant of global inequality, especially in labor practices. This is why we price our products the way we do. We want to give a fair and respectful wage to everyone involved. We do not run a wholesale factory, but support honest and beautiful work.

Reviews of the Henri Wrist Strap

Excellent product & presentation. Well crafted and thought out. High quality thick full grain leather & custom handmade craftsmanship. The best camera wrist strap available. You will not be disappointed. Will look better with age. Will last eternity. 5 Stars.
Ordered this strap as a gift with the Canon G9 X. Its simple, elegant and pairs wonderfully with the G9 or (I imagine) any point & shoot or rangefinders that fancy a bit of charm. Lovely packaging and an ideal gift as it turns out! The construction appears to be very solid and after attaching it to the Canon, have no worries. If you’re looking for a strap that compliments a good looking camera, this is one to consider.
I’ve always used neck straps with my cameras over the years (dating back to Canon AE-1, Canon digital, and now Fuji). Usually I sling them over my shoulder instead of hanging them around my neck. I got to the point where I wanted a change, and decided to give a wrist strap a try. It’s a lovely leather strap that pairs wonderfully with the retro design of the Fuji line of cameras. I love the color and soft texture. I only found out after I purchased it that the strap is from Vietnam, which happens to be my mother’s native country, so it’s great to be able to also offer support.
