Emily R. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
TrailMate is my absolute go-to for adding those crucial, stylish details to my vintage rangefinders. I bought the Engraved Brass Soft Release (No. 13), and it instantly elevated the feel of my camera—the tactile feedback is just perfect. I also picked up their Acid-Free Negative Binder (No. 25); the quality assurance for my archived rolls is worth every penny. It’s clear this shop understands the analog photographer's needs beyond just taking the picture
Jason M. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
As someone who travels ruggedly with my gear, protection and reliability are everything. The Waxed Canvas Messenger Bag (No. 9) is fantastic—it looks genuinely vintage but handles rain and dirt perfectly. The Premium Leather Neck Strap (No. 1) is incredibly comfortable for long hikes and feels secure even with a heavy lens attached. TrailMate lives up to its name; their gear is truly a trustworthy companion on the trail
Sophie L. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I treat my film camera as a fashion accessory, and TrailMate’s products are the perfect blend of aesthetic and function. My favorite purchase is the Rope & Cord Neck Strap (No. 3)—the color pop is great, and it pairs beautifully with the minimal Custom Enamel Hot Shoe Cover (No. 16). Their accessories transform a simple camera into a personalized piece of art. If you want high-quality vintage vibes, this is the place

Can TrailMate accessories be used with digital cameras?
Yes, they can. Our straps and hand grips use a universal mounting system, making them compatible with most digital cameras, including DSLRs and mirrorless models. However, the design focus remains on the vintage aesthetic of film cameras.
What are the materials used for the leather products, and how should I care for them?
Our leather goods primarily use Full Grain Leather or Vegetable-Tanned Leather. They are crafted to allow for beautiful natural aging (patina). We recommend treating them with a leather conditioner or oil once every 3 to 6 months.
How much camera weight can the Quick Release System support?
Our Quick Release System is designed with safety as the top priority, and most products have been tested to support weights exceeding 5 kg (approx. 11 lbs). This is sufficient for typical camera and lens combinations. Please refer to each product's details page for specific information.
Are the film storage tins and negative sleeves 'Archival Grade'?
Yes, they are. For the long-term preservation of your film, we use Acid-Free materials and archival-grade components like polyethylene to minimize film degradation.
