A tripod and camera backpack built to survive the elements, with a reduced impact on the environment

Creators rely on their gear to tell their stories. But they’re often held back by cheap equipment that breaks and requires expensive repair and replacement.

Not only does this impact our ability to get the shot, but it contributes to a throwaway culture that devastates our environment.

With over 100 years of manufacturing excellence and craftsmanship, we set out to develop a new standard of products that are better for the photographer, and the planet.

Meet Légende, travel photography gear designed to last. Made from premium eco-friendly materials and offering free spare parts and an unlimited warranty. Légende offers content creators peace of mind with high-quality gear they can depend on.

 

5% of funds for inspiring the next generation

For every legende purchase on Indiegogo we will donate 5% to Wild Shots Outreach who provide education and scholarship programs for young people in the environmental conservation field.

 

 

Légende –
a tripod for the future

Our throwaway culture is destroying the places we as photographers hold most dear.  So we set out to make a more sustainable tripod, One that is fully-featured but forever repairable.
