Peak Design Slide Camera Strap, Midnight Blue

This is a major upgrade from my original Nikon camera strap. I love the versatility of easily changing attachment points and easy adjustment.

Product is listed with aluminium and glass fibre hardware which is true in the legal sense of the phrase, it has aluminium screws but the buckles and levers are plastic. The levers are handles and aren't for clamping the buckle, just for moving it. Yes, its a nice looking strap and it works as one but so does every other strap. I genuinely feel like a rug has been pulled from beneath me. If the product was made in Europe or North America then I would be less disappointed. 1 out of 5 stars selected. Product is Poor - Hmm its better than poor 2 out of 5 stars selected. Product is Fair - Do not agree Can literally get 20m polypropylene webbing for £16, two CNC machined spring loaded quick release buckles at £20 each then end hardware copy cats for £20 or less, made a 3d printed stencil to apply silicone to the belt for grip and have what I expected for a similar price (labour would have been the difference in wholesale pricing). The padding in the PD strap is basically none existent anyway. I was toying with that idea and should have done it and felt good about it.

Very comfortable as I usually use a long telephoto lens. The adjustments are great and I love how it attaches to my camera. It's the most comfortable and accommodating strap I've ever had. I've had this strap for several years now and I've never regretted getting it.

I bought this to carry a Nikon Z8 with 100-400 mm lens. It's great! Sturdy, and it performs just like shown on PD YouTube video. Happy i sent the money on a quality product.

After having the Slide Lite since 2020, I just got the Slide for more comfort while holding the 70-200 GM2. As always, PD is the best we can get for our gear ! I always recommend.

I have been using this strap for years. Honestly I love it. I even sometimes use it a strap for a shoulder bag that I bought from Supreme, that I also double as a camera bag. Its super versatile. My only problem with this strap or those little rubber lines they glued on. Over time they begin to peel off and honestly they make the strap loose its sleek beauty. Changing swapping out those rubber lines for something that would last forever would honestly be the only change this strap needs. Other than that, its definitely one of the most comfortable straps out there. Its perfect for the weight of the Fuji XT5.

Does everything you need, and morning you don't. No crazy buckles, slides, clips, straps, or snaps. Just a solid strap that's easy to get on and off the camera in a couple configurations, and passing that's comfortable but not bulky.

I already had one slide for my Canon DLSR camera. I had purchased the medium packing cube and found I will be able to use it as a camera bag. I really like the ability to change the length on the slide. I feel the part of the slide that has the slip proof should be on the reverse side. To use it, you have to turn the releases with the buckle toward your body. Find it annoying, so usually work without using the slip proof feature.

Since I am 6'5", I purchased the Slide XL. Really like the product for my Spring walks in Tennessee. Also, purchased the Capture Clip and PRO Pad which completes the awesome carry setup. Only issue that I have had is that the plate for the Capture Clip came loose on my walk the other day and did not have the Allen Wrench. I know that is why you came out with the Field Plate, but it is tough to shell out another $39.95 on top of what I have already spent. Other than that hiccup, I love the whole camera carry system from Peak.

Purchased this via Amazon and delighted with it. It sits perfectly and is super strong. HIGHLY recommended

Best strap I've ever used for my camera. I was a little confused at first because you put the non-sticky part down on your shoulder which seems backwards, but that is because it's to ensure you can swing the camera up easily. I love that there are several ways to attach it so you can use it in the way that works best for you.

I purchased the original version many years ago, and it started to have the devulcanized rubber problem (where the rubber on it starts to "melt"), ruining one of my polo shirts. I thought it was a lost cause, so I tried to remove the rubber myself with a knife and rubbing alcohol. It didn't work. I read online that it was a common problem, and that it was covered by the lifetime warranty. I forgot that the warranty existed! I contacted PD right away and eventually got a new one sent to me. That was awesome. The only problem I had was that my emails went between an AI bot and a live person. At one point, an AI bot took over, and when I asked for a live person, the communication stalled. I had to go back onto the contact form on the website to contact someone again, but it finally happened, so I'm glad. The Slide itself is very comfortable, but the latch that lengthens and shortens the product is not the strongest, and it will still lengthen when locked. All in all, a very good product backed by an excellent company.

This is my second PD Slide, as I need a second strap for my camera bag. I stay with Peak Design because of overall quality and design. And the ocean colour looks amazing.

Easy to put on and take off the camera using the anchors. Works well in various positions using three anchor points (you pick two based on lens weight and length) one on the bottom and one on each side. Strap is well constructed with slippery and grippy sides. I tend to use the slippery slide with a sling style, but can be used on the neck or shoulder. Glad to have it and have used it for lots of street photography. The buckles make it very easy to adjust length. Should last a long time.

I ended up getting the Slide Carryology edition to replace a really old UPStrap that was also cut resistant. The Slide is so much more comfortable than the UPStrap's rubber pad. I appreciate how one side of the Slide is smooth to allow for quick manipulations. If you need it to sit still with minimal slip just flip over the strap. I typically run my Canon R6MIII with heavier, longer lenses and the Slide is comfortable no matter which side you use. Adjusting the strap length is easy with the buckles and disconnecting the Slide itself from the anchors is so easy that you can do it one-handed. I usually don't do any shoots in inclement weather so I can't speak to how the hardware will hold up in wet conditions. So far I'm pretty happy with the Slide and will revisit this review if possible if I experience any issues.

Excellent quality product. Love the design the feel and the fit. Works really well with my Sony A7RV. The camera feels totally safe and the adjustable strap helps distribute the weight. Build quality is excellent. Fells like a quality product. Very pleased.

This is only the second after market strap I've used and I don't think I'll be switching again. This strap is built to last. It's rugged, holds my heavier Canon 5D mark ii well, and is easy to switch between different camera bodies. I love this strap! I highly recommend it both amateur and professionals alike.

I researched quite a bit on camera straps and picked this one. Excellent strap. High quality materials and extremely well made and designed, yet very simple. Slides easily to bring camera into action, yet stays put until you need it. I like this strap so much I just bought a Slide Lite for my binoculars. Highly recommended!

I just bought this slide and it already feels great. I'm very satisfied with the high quality product. A very few minor adjustments I would need for a 5 stars review: The color of midnight blue is not as vibrant as online. The color is closer to a gray than a blue. I would suggest you to choose ocean if you're looking for a blue one and this is what I would do. All connecting parts are made of plastic. At this price, even with a lifetime warranty, I would have preferred lightweight metal.

While I look forward to using the product, I was quite disatisfied with the online sales process. I had received a coupon which I applied to my order. But due to the complexities of the ordering process, I had to cancel and recreate a new order ... the coupon couldn't be applied. So I lost out on my expected savings. Please fix the ordering process ... as I will not purchase from this site until I hear that you have addressed my concerns. I recommend buying from other sites.

Been using the Peak Design Slide Strap since 2018 and I still swear by it. Hands down the best camera strap on the market. Super comfortable, crazy durable, and insanely versatile. The build quality is next-level, and the lifetime warranty just seals the deal. Years later and it's still rock solid. Absolute must-have for any photographer.

I owned a previous Slide version many years ago, but I couldn't bring myself to trust the anchors to keep my gear safe. After speaking with other Slide users and reading many, many reviews, I resolved to overcome my anchor phobia and give the Slide another try. It gives me far more flexibility than my previous "sturdy-but-hard-to-attach-and-remove" strap. Length adjustments are easily made without removing the strap, and different attachment points can be used to accommodate different camera/lens configurations and use cases. I've used the Slide with a 100-500mm lens on a full frame body, and it was surprisingly comfortable slung over my shoulder. Glad I gave the Slide a second chance.

Picked this up on 2025-06-17 and have used several times on vacation and during visit to the Oregon Coast. Appreciate the comfortable 1.8" wide strap and the silicone grip side that keeps the sling from sliding off in shoulder mode and smooth side on sling or neck mode. Can be combined with the capture attached to a backpack to keep a DSLR from swinging back and forth when hiking.

Strap needs more of the grip like what is on the side of the part that you hand over your head as it keeps slipping off. When wearing a rain coat it keeps sliding off your shoulder. The colour and feel is lovely. I throw away the box by accident and wish I could bring it back to WEX. Maybe the next generation will have that extra grip. Unfortunately until this, do buy.
