Wild in every sense, and it has the weight to prove it
The FlexCase and the Classic Flat Padded Rope strap in the same Everglades leather. Italian cowhide with an alligator pattern embossed into it and finished to resist water, over a base plate machined from solid brass for the Leica M11 and M EV1.
The brass is the point. 186 grams complete, against 78 for the same case in aluminum, and the weight sits low under the body where a camera carries it best. This is not the set for anyone chasing the lightest possible rig. Both leather pieces come from the same run, so they start the same colour and age together.
⚠ WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals including lead, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.
Colour tone and texture may vary slightly from piece to piece, as the material is organic and no two hides finish exactly the same.
- Fits. Leica M11, Leica M EV1. The plate is machined to those two bodies.
- Case weight. 186 grams, 6.6 ounces, complete with the solid brass plate.
- Case size. 5 5/8 inches long, 1 1/2 inches wide, 2 3/4 inches high. 143 by 38 by 70 mm.
- Strap weight. 85 to 93 grams, depending on the length you choose.
- Set weight. 271 to 279 grams for the pair.
- Strap lengths. Five. 30 inches (76 cm), 40 inches (102 cm), 45 inches (114 cm), 50 inches (127 cm), 55 inches (140 cm). Fixed, measured end to end.
- Plate. Solid brass, with a concealed Arca profile, an AirTag bay, dual quarter twenty threads and an anti skid base.
- Threads. Two, 1/4 inch by 20.
- Access. Battery, SD card and USB-C, all reachable with the case on.
- Saving. 70 dollars under the case and the strap bought separately.
- Production. Very small batches. Excluded from sitewide promotions.
- Matching leather, both pieces. Italian cowhide with an alligator pattern embossed into it, water resistant finished, on the case and on the strap pad.
- Built to be used. The embossed pattern is set to hold up through years of real handling, not shelved.
- Structured, not stiff. The case holds its shape from the first day and never goes floppy, and it molds to the body over time.
- Flat rope body. Our own flat rope, with the padded leather section where the weight lands on the neck.
- Solid brass plate. Machined from bar stock. It darkens with handling and the high points stay bright where your fingers sit.
- Lined and padded inside. The finish of the camera never meets bare metal or bare leather.
- Made in Miami. Cut, machined and finished in our own shop.
- One hide, two piecesThe case and the strap pad come from the same run, so they start the same colour and age at the same rate. Ordering the two separately later is a gamble on the hide.
- Where the weight sits186 grams of brass under the body rather than hanging off the top, and a padded section that carries the load across the neck rather than a cord cutting into it.
- Straight onto the tripodThe Arca profile is machined into the plate and sits flush, so the head takes the camera with the case on and the strap still attached.
- Knowing where it isTrack your camera with an AirTag, concealed inside the plate. Access it anytime with the included EDC Keychain Tool. AirTag not included.
- FlexCase. One, in Everglades leather with a solid brass base plate.
- EDC Keychain Tool. Opens the AirTag compartment in the plate.
- AirTag. Not included. What we machine is the compartment it drops into.
- Classic Flat Padded Rope strap. One, in Everglades, in the length you choose, with the fitting you choose below.
- Split Ring. 2 tempered polished stainless steel rings, 2 blackout tempered steel rings, 2 full grain leather anti scratch lug covers, and 1 split ring pry tool.
- Quick Release Attachment Set. 2 quick release anchors in the original sealed box, simple installation needed, and 2 tri glide adjust buckles.
- Hassy Clip Set. 2 custom clips cut for Hasselblad cameras, precision fit without split rings, and 2 tri glide adjust buckles.
- Multi Attachment Bundle Set. 2 quick release anchors, 2 leather split ring anchors, 2 tempered polished stainless steel rings, 2 blackout tempered steel rings, 2 full grain leather anti scratch lug covers, 1 split ring pry tool, and 2 tri glide adjust buckles.
- Leica M11 and M EV1. The FlexCase plate is machined to those two bodies.
- Not the M11 D. That body needs its own plate, because the plate is machined to the body it sits under.
- The strap fits any camera. Length and attachment are chosen at checkout, so the same strap moves to a second body.
- The case stays on. Battery, SD card and USB-C are all reachable without taking the camera out of the leather.
- Straight onto a tripod. The Arca profile is concealed in the base plate, so the head takes the camera with the case still fitted.
- Two quarter twenty threads. For a plate, a grip, a cage or a strap anchor.
- Leather. A dry cloth for dust, and a soft dry brush to lift it out of the embossed pattern. A barely damp cloth for anything else, then let it dry flat and away from direct heat.
- The padded section. Chrome tanned, so it tolerates damp better than the case does and needs conditioner only when it feels dry to the hand.
- The rope. No treatment. Rinse it in cool water if it picks up salt or grit and let it air dry before rolling it away.
- The brass. Leave it alone unless you want it bright again. Polish takes it back to new, and doing nothing takes it somewhere better.
- The patina is the point. Both leather pieces darken and mark with use, and they do it together because they are cut from the same hide.
- Why is this one so much heavier?Because the plate is solid brass. 186 grams against 78 for aluminum. The weight sits low under the body, which some shooters want and some do not.
- How big is the case, and what does it weigh?5 5/8 inches long, 1 1/2 inches wide, 2 3/4 inches high. 143 by 38 by 70 mm. 186 grams, 6.6 ounces, complete with the plate.
- Which attachment should I pick?Split rings are the simplest and the lightest. Quick release anchors let you take the strap off in a second. Hassy clips are for Hasselblad lugs. The bundle carries all of them, for anyone who moves one strap between bodies.
- Is the strap leather the same as the case?Yes, the same hide in the same run. That pairing is not sold anywhere else.
- Does it fit the M11 D?No. That body needs its own plate.
