Personalize your strap

First, choose if you want plain text embossing or a custom logo on your leather neck strap or wrist strap. The number of characters varies with three different options:

 

• One to four characters for those who want to emboss their initials. 
• Five to eighteen for customers who wish to emboss their full name, or 
• Nineteen to thirty-six to emboss your favourite photography quote.

 

The standard text embossing is performed with traditional type sets that are used in bookbinding. Each letter is selected and set in in the block, then heated and finally pressed deep into the leather of your strap.

The choice of fonts says a lot about how a visual creative wants to capture their name, initials or favourite photography quote. Choose from one of the following three fonts:
•  BLOCK (all capitals)
•  Times (case sensitive)
•  Cursive (case sensitive)

BLOCK

Block font is bold and punchy and speaks of confidence. It works well with shorter phrases such as initials.

• Times is stylish, informative and takes after the style of photojournalism publications. It works well when wanting to place your first or full name on the leather neck strap.

• Embossed text is placed in the bottom left corner at the end of the main body of the adjustable length leather strap. Text is positioned in the bottom left corner of the main body of the strap.
• We provide the option to have the text embossed at both ends of the strap or just the one. 
• You can also choose to have embossing on both ends of the strap.
• All three font options are traditional bookbinding fonts with some limitations on the available symbols. 
• Unfortunately, we cannot include emojis, diacritics/accents or @#/_%\. However, we can include standard punctuation such as !-,.?&' $.

It is important to note we, unfortunately, cannot take returns of embossed straps unless there is an issue with our artistry.

 

STEP 3 - OPT FOR A CUSTOM LOGO TO EMBOSS 

Aside from providing a wide range of text embossing options, Lucky Straps offers a truly custom leather neck strap experience. If you're a working photographer, videographer or enthusiast visual creative, embossing your mark on a strap is the ultimate personalisation.

Your mark can be anything from your sweeping signature to a business logo. As a result, clients and prospective clients will see that you're serious about your craft when you show up to your next job. It's a handy way to promote your business while on the job or even just out and about with your camera for fun.

Where text embossing uses reversed type-face to emboss, custom embossing takes it to the next level. Here's a breakdown of the process:

• Shop our site for your preferred Lucky Straps leather neck or wrist strap.
• Select your strap colour and length.
• Select Custom Logo as your style of the personalisation.
• Upload an image file containing your signature, business logo or another brand mark.
• We have a precision-craftsperson who machines a reverse plate with your logo. 
• We then press your logo into the leather camera straps / camera wrist strap while applying your choice of foil. 
• The process takes a little longer (4-6 weeks), but the outcomes are worth waiting. 
• We hold onto your custom logo embossing plate in case you want to create additional straps and accessories.

STEP 4 - CHOOSE A FOIL COLOUR

Now that your text or logo embossing is locked in, it's time to decide what colour you want them to be. The range of foil options is extensive and does require some pre-thought.

We recommend viewing the sample images below, which will give you a visual reference of what each foil option looks like when embossed across several types of leather. If at this stage you don't want a foil fill on your leather neck strap, or wrist strap then we do have a Blind option to consider, which doesn't have a colour fill.
