    We've made our bag from sails. Sail cloth that is, using the 100% climate neutral VX-21 X-Pac materials. Providing maximum protection while maintaining its ultra lightweight portability.

    With our High Visibility Blue Lining never forget to zip up again! The Kiboko Backpack line adds an extra layer of protection with this visual cue.

    Our bags are infinitely configurable and come with plenty of extra divider types to accomodate any setup imaginable. Our dividers are also made out of Artillion Foam which is the same stuff used in motorcycle helmets. High impact protection, low weight and profile.

    The Kiboko 30L is designed to carry the maximum gear while staying within international flight carry-on size regulations. The bag comes in at 3.9lbs freeing up weight to bring extra gear instead of extra bag on your next trip.

    Stowable shoulder straps give the bag a less technical look when storing.

    Upgraded to the 30L

    I also own the Kiboko 2.0 22L+ bag and have been using it for a few years. I've recently purchased a 600mm Nikkor Z TC and needed a bigger bag. I've been very happy with the 22L and the design, so I'm quite sure the 30L will fit the bill. The Nikkor Z 600mm fits perfectly along with a Nikon Z9 and Z8 body, 70-200, 24-70mm and 14-30mm lenses. I've owned quite a few bags in my career, but the Gura Gear bags are the best out there for sure!

    Haven’t used yet so I can’t rate it.

    I bought to carry two z9s with 400, 2.8 mounted on one and a 24-70, 2.8 on the other for a trip to Africa next year. It will definitely hold what I am taking. When it arrived, I was impressed enough with the quality that I ordered a duffel bag for the same trip.

    excellent bag for international travel

    I bought this bag to pack my sony 600mm f4 and other gears for an international trip. LOVE it. Very good design for organizing gears. The bag has a minor defect on the zipper, and the company promptly sent a replacement and paid for the return shipping. The company really stands behind the brand.

    X-Pac VX-21

    In all of our gear we use X-Pac VX-21, a sailcloth-inspired laminated rip-stop nylon. This is the gold standard in materials for bags. Even after years of abuse it holds up as a durable, water resistant, and utlra lightweight material. Some of our legacy users are still using their original Kibokos from 10 years ago.

    Main Compartments

    Our signature Butterfly style duel front access allows you to access the contents of your bag quickly and without exposing everything to the elements. Pack different variations in each side for maximum organization. Pro body DSLR and lens combos fit well inside the 30L Kiboko. There are also webbed zipper pockets on the outside panel of the main compartment for small misc items. The webbed design allows you to see the contents.

    Interior Dimensions11.81 x 20.08 x 5.91" / 30 x 51 x 15 cm

    Front Accessories Pockets

    At the exterior of the two front panels are the bags accessory pockets. Loaded with zipper pockets, a key ring, places for pens, and enough space collectively to put a wind breaker jacket inside. The zipper pockets inside feature a webbed style so you can see the contents of the pockets.

    Our History

    Solving for a critical need: Weight

    Co-founders Trevor Peterson and renowned wildlife photographer Andy Biggs created Gura Gear to answer a problem critical to traveling to extreme locations: weight limits on photo gear.

    En-route independently to East Africa, both Andy and Trevor got into some trouble with the carryon restrictions at Schiphol airport in Amsterdam. “I had packed two Nikon Pro DSLR bodies and 200-400mm f/4, 70-200mm f/2.8, & 24-70mm f/2.8 lenses, putting me past the weight limits. It took some convincing to get in the air, "-Trevor.

    Talking over the campfire after a long day of photographing wildlife, Andy and Trevor discussed what the perfect camera bag would be. Literally on the back of napkin, the Kiboko backpack was sketched out. 

    Over two years of development, eight rounds of prototypes, and one patent application later (and one very frustrated factory manager), the Kiboko camera backpack was launched. 

    Great add-ons for the Kiboko Bags
