I'm now strapped

I haven't used a camera strap in many years, preferring to just carry the camera by the grip regular straps are too hard to put on & remove and don't carry the camera well with larger lenses. The PD Slide has genius connectors that are so easy to use. And in sling mode the camera is comfortable to carry and quick to bring up. I will be using this a lot.

Super comfortable and secure. Can carry the camera in a more natural position even with big lenses, and improved my workflow. Great product overall

Easily the best strap I've ever used. Even had the original fail and Peak Design replaced under warranty. So very happy. Keep it up, gang. Customer for life!

A brilliant strap!

Okay, I'll admit -- I never realised how good a strap could be. I'd used the stock Canon strap, as well as some pretty decorative straps, but they were all basically the same thing - uncomfortable, and secure enough if you were using them as a standard around-the-neck mount.
The Slide is so much better than that. It's more comfortable, and the no-slip surface on one side is incredibly secure. I feel like my camera is not going to go wandering off when I have the strap over my shoulder.
The slide mechanism is fantastic. I've been hanging my camera as a sling strap (or near-sling strap), and this has just been great. The slide allows me to loosen it for back-and-forth motion, but tighten up when I'm wearing the camera at my back/side for a while. The strap (and my camera) was still comfortable even after two days of hiking around Volcanoes National Park.
The Slide was more spendy than I was originally planning on, but the cost is totally worth it: it's probably the one piece of gear beside the camera body itself that I get the most use out of. Definitely worth it!

The thickness of the strap is changed according to the size of the lens.
I like the design very well.

Best strap for action shooters

I looked at every camera strap I could before buying this one. Shooting sporting events with a regular neck strap wasn't comfortable and I ended up just removing the strap and holding the camera all the time. I'm not
a monopod guy so eventually you get tired of holding a big DSLR with a 70-200 lens. This strap lets you customize how you carry it and change up the strap in just a few seconds. I use it as a sling strap mostly and for that, it is the greatest strap. It's so smooth that you just find yourself sliding it to your side all the time. I never hold my camera up for long and in between plays during football games, if I'm not reviewing my pics from the previous play, the camera is at my side. Moving around is easy and the camera stays in place and doesn't bounce around at all. Some of the cheaper alternatives might do an okay job, but they really don't compare to the quality of this strap and the quick disconnect option that you have with the Slide isn't available with most of those cheaper options. When the strap is attached and on your body, you don't feel like you have a strap in your way. I have seen where people combine the slide with the capture clip. I'm sure that works great, but if you aren't doing serious hiking or something that would move the camera around a lot, it's really not needed. Only thing I would like is a version where I can carry a spare battery and memory cards as I only ever wear the strap with the smooth side against me.

Get it in Ash, you'll stand out in a good way

I was a long time user of the BlackRapid strap system, but was never thrilled with the stability. Seeing that Slide offered two points of connectivity, I ordered the strap in Ash after debating if it would look professional enough compared to black. It does, get it in Ash for sure! The two points of connectivity to your camera do in fact make a huge different in stability. I first used this with a Nikon D750 and now a Sony a7R IV and both are stable and strong enough to carry a 70-200mm f/2.8 lens on the body using the Slide. My go-to setup for event photography is the ThinkTank Pro Speed Belt v3 with hip pad holding a Capture and one camera with a 24-70mm f/2.8 lens and then the Slide holding a second camera with 70-200mm f/2.8 lens. This combo gives me a lot of freedom of movement and ability to wield two cameras for hours without excessive discomfort.
Get it in Ash!
