About us
BLACKISHGEAR / OUR PHILOSOPHY
To become "Black,"
untainted by any other color.
Straight to what you love.
With black camping gear, towards the scenery beyond.
01 / WHO WE ARE
Choose black.
Create your own style.
BlackishGear is an outdoor brand dedicated to the pursuit, development, and sale of black camping gear.
From tents and tables to lights and handheld tools, we believe that the time spent curating your favorite gear, as well as the moments spent gazing at your assembled campsite, are all part of the joy of camping.
We strive for a "black" that makes you think, "I'm glad I chose this," every time you use it. We refine both aesthetic coolness and functional usability in tandem.
02 / OUR ORIGIN
It began with a simple feeling:
"I love black."
Whether it’s what I wear or what I surround myself with, I find myself choosing black time and time again. That personal preference of our founder is the origin of BlackishGear.
While searching for camping equipment, I realized that there were still far too few options for the black gear I actually wanted.
If it doesn't exist, we’ll make it ourselves. So that those who love black can enjoy their style with more freedom. This brand was born from that desire.
03 / WHAT WE VALUE
Even within black,
there are many expressions.
Bringing out the character of materials in black.
The texture of wood. The light dancing on metal. The glow filtering through Japanese paper. Because everything is unified in black, the differences in materials and finishes stand out.
Beyond just the color, we consider how it feels in your hand and how it looks when placed. We look closely at every detail to craft tools that are unmistakably BlackishGear.
Designing even the time spent using it.
Grabbing, placing, carrying, storing. We focus on the repetitive motions of camping to rethink size, structure, and ease of use.
We aim for gear that possesses both a form that invites you to gaze upon it and a functionality that makes you want to pick it up and use it.
Expanding the possibilities of black with artisans.
From precision metalworking to the handiwork of combining wood and Japanese paper, collaboration with artisans who possess different skills is a core part of our manufacturing.
04 / FIND YOUR BLACK
What kind of black will you choose?
Drawn to the material. Drawn to the form. Drawn to the light.
Start with the one thing that moves your heart, and create your own unique campsite.
A black that fits your hand.
