Since 2015, my camera bag of choice has been a Gura Gear Chobe that’s still holding up strong after over a million air miles. I was sad to see it go out of production a few years back – but it’s BACK and a new and improved! Chobe 2.0 is now available in a pair of sizes – 13″ or 16″. Each are made of the same lightweight, durable sailcloth nylon, with room for a laptop, fullsize tablet and up to four mirrorless cameras and lenses. They feature a trolley slot in back which allows you to slip the bag over the handle of a rolling carry-on or suitcase.
Gura Gear Chobe 2.0 camera bags feature a pair of front pockets with zippered and slot pockets for additional storage for keys, passports, filters, chargers, cables, headphones and other accessories.
Gura Gear Chobe 2.0 Camera Bags come in two sizes. Chobe 2.0 13″ will hold up to a 14″ laptop and Chobe 2.0 16″ will hold up to a 16″ laptop. The choice is simple if you have a 15″ or 16″ laptop – you’ll want the bigger bag. On the other hand if you travel with a 13″ or 14″ laptop you can choose between the more compact Chobe 2.0 13″ – or opt for more storage with Chobe 2.0 16″

Because Chobe camera bags are expandable, each size is available with optional narrow and wide inserts. For maximum flexibility, I ordered both the wide & narrow inserts for my new bag so I can swap out depending on my needs.
