Spring 2018: The Velvet Collection Photoshoot

Featured photo for Spring 2018: The Velvet Collection Photoshoot

Introducing our newest collection of straps to hit the internet. Spring 2018: The Velvet Collection. For your guitars, cameras and bags. 

We took a trip to New York over winter break with one mission, to scope out the best fabrics we could find in the infamous garment district. While meandering around one fabric shop after the other, we fell in love with the lushest of them all—velvet. 

Our newest collection is made with 100% polyester velvet from Turkey in four colors: peacock, coin, black, and spice. These straps are incredibly soft, luminous, rich in texture and sheen, and will dress up any style for any occasion. We combined each color with our classic antique brass hardware and black Horween leather end tabs. 

Take a look at our Spring 2018 photoshoot with models Leah Miller, Marcus Maddox, and Jacob Corenflos. Photography by Emily Quirk. Shot at Dee's Country Cocktail Lounge right outside Nashville in Madison, TN.
