Story

“Without a doubt, we are all nomadic by nature. Each of us are offered a journey, but how we persist is what sets us apart. The Blackforest story started with a passion to create uniquely designed and functional camera bags and accessories. We believe the professionals and enthusiasts deserve to carry their gear that reflects their style and passion. Since then we’ve been pushing the boundaries to create more reliable products designed to go with you anywhere. 

We explored new materials, made several prototypes and field tested for months before we launched our first bag. This is precisely our goal with each new piece and we pursue it ardently. We will continue to craft better ways to carry that help you move effortlessly between your worlds. We hope that our products will make photography a better experience and bring joy to many others around the world.”
