LegCushion

Long treks with a heavy tripod don’t need to be painful. The leg cushion for tripod by LensCoat® is a field-tested solution that transforms your carrying experience by reducing shoulder fatigue and increasing comfort—especially when you're working with professional-grade support systems. Built for wildlife, landscape, and outdoor photographers who carry gear over rugged terrain, it keeps your setup manageable without adding weight or complication. 

Whether you’re hiking into a remote location or repositioning between shoots, this durable, padded accessory delivers consistent support. Unlike bulky improvised padding or rigid wraps, this is the best leg cushion for tripod systems that need to stay agile in motion. 

Designed for Open-Carry Configurations 

Unlike a tripod shoulder pad that works best when legs are collapsed, the LegCushion is engineered specifically for open-leg carrying. This makes it perfect for fast-moving fieldwork where you're regularly setting up and tearing down your tripod. The cushion wraps securely around one leg and rests comfortably on your shoulder while the tripod is deployed—providing a shock-absorbing, stable contact point. 

• Fits most mid- to large-sized tripods — including Gitzo Series 3, 4, and 5 models 
• Inner diameter compatibility: 1.25" to 2.46" tripod legs 
• Secure Velcro attachment that stays fixed whether tripod legs are open or closed 
• No shifting or slippage during transport 

This unique approach makes it more versatile than traditional tripod leg covers or basic foam wraps that are not designed for open-leg carry. 

Materials Built for the Outdoors 

The Leg Cushion for Tripod isn’t just comfortable—it’s engineered for endurance. It’s built from three key layers: 

• Outer Shell: Rugged, water-resistant Cordura fabric protects against abrasions and the elements 
• Core Padding: Dense shock-absorbing foam reduces pressure on your shoulder 
• Inner Liner: Soft 3D mesh polyester that wicks moisture and stays breathable 

This combination ensures your tripod is easy to carry across long distances, even in hot or wet environments. With multiple camouflage options, the LegCushion also breaks up your gear’s outline—ideal for wildlife photographers who want to stay discreet in the field. 

Why the LegCushion Beats Standard Tripod Leg Wraps 

• Comfort When It Counts: Specifically designed for shoulder carry while the tripod is in use—not just when it’s packed. 
• Quick, Tool-Free Attachment: Secure it in seconds with Velcro; no straps or clamps needed. 
• Stays in Place: Unlike standard tripod leg wraps, it won’t rotate or loosen mid-hike. 
• Multi-Terrain Ready: With Cordura toughness and a moisture-wicking interior, it’s perfect for forests, swamps, deserts, and more. 
• Custom Camouflage Options: Choose from Black, Realtree Max5, Digital Camo, Forest Green, and others to suit your terrain. 

Frequently Asked Questions 

1. Will this LegCushion fit my tripod model?  

If your tripod’s upper leg diameter falls between 1.25" and 2.46", the LegCushion will fit snugly. It’s especially compatible with larger models like the Gitzo Series 3, 4, and 5. 

2. Can I use the LegCushion on collapsed tripod legs, too?  

Yes. While it’s optimized for shoulder comfort when legs are extended, the LegCushion also stays in place when the tripod is collapsed—making it a great hybrid between a tripod shoulder pad and a tripod leg wrap. 

3. Does the LegCushion interfere with the tripod mounting?  

Not at all. It’s designed to stay clear of locking collars and mounting plates, so you can deploy your tripod quickly without obstructions. 

4. Is it water-resistant?  

Yes. The outer Cordura shell is water-resistant, and the inner lining is moisture-wicking—making it well-suited for wet, humid, or cold shooting conditions.
