★★★★★

"It's hard to find a good bag for long lenses that will travel safe, but this backpack does it all and does it well! In a recent trip to Alaska, I had my Sony a1 with the 400mm f2.8, Sony a7R4 with the 70-200mm f2.8, along with GoPro, filters, cables and more packed in it, and it fit in the overhead bay in all flights! Now with the Chobe messenger bag, this is THE BEST overall solution for those who plan on flying with long lenses and lots of gear. Great job GG!"

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.
