The high pace, digital savvy generation is hardly limited by their physical geographic position in a specific city. With their mind traveling the world daily, these ‘digital bohemians’ regularly capture and share photographic images from all over the world. Digital camera is, of course, the tool of choice.
 
Diagnl, the Tokyo-based Japanese camera parts manufacturer, recently tailor-made a DSLR Ninja strap for the likes of ‘city traveler’. Taking inspiration from strap design of a messenger bag, its retractable strap system and buckle allows greater space for movement. The user simply releases the buckle for quick access to the camera, in time to capture the moment. Unlike the metal buckle (that is commonly used), the specially engineered material does not leave scratch mark on camera and is a perfect for bicycle users.
 
Apart from the original editions in black, blue and grey, Diagnl is also launching a limited edition for Japanese multi-media group Groovisions. A collaboration with Beams with thumbnail portraiture in signature Groovisions style paired with dark military green are available in Tokyo Cultuart by Beams.

Ninja strap has arrived in Hong Kong, available at Think Silly Store.
