Two New Accessories Made of Fine Leather

Wetzlar, 22 November 2022

For more than a century, Leica Camera AG has been manufacturing cameras and lenses which set standards all over the world and consistently redefine the limits of photography. The company’s high demands on quality, workmanship and design are also reflected in its accessories. In cooperation with a traditional leathercraft partner, two new Leica accessories made of hair sheep napa leather have been created: the Leica Wrapping Cloth and the Visoflex 2 Case.

The multifunctional 45 x 45 cm Wrapping Cloth reliably protects Leica M, Q, compact cameras, and compact binoculars as well as other valuables against scratches and dust, while also keeping them dust and lint-free thanks its specially treated back. Cameras can be wrapped up in it together with the carrying strap and fixed with an elastic band. Designed specifically for the Visoflex 2, a viewfinder compatible with the Leica M11 and all Leica M10 models, the case protects the item securely thanks to its internal gasket and magnetic lock. Both accessories are adorned with the discreetly imprinted Leica logo.

As expected from Leica, the accessories’ functionality goes hand in hand with a simple and elegant design. Both are made of hair sheep napa leather – a natural material which is valued for its extremely smooth and supple feel and often used for the manufacturing of gloves. The high-quality natural material is cut from one piece and seamlessly processed for the Leica Wrapping Cloth. This requires leather of the highest grade.

The Leica leather accessories will be available globally at Leica Stores, the Leica Online Store and authorized dealers. The recommended retail price for the Wrapping Cloth is 150 EUR including VAT and 130 EUR including VAT for the Visoflex 2 Case.
