Since, it has quickly gone on to become an icon in adventure photography. Millar embarked upon Shimoda Design after years of fatigue with the adventure photography options available, as an avid explorer, snowboarder and adventure photographer it was the gear that was the main detractor from his passions. As former lead designer and developer at F-Stop, he decided to put his design chops and all things adventure to the test by creating the perfect adventure photography bag. Collaborating with fellow adventure photographers and inspired by advances in technical outdoor products, Shimoda embarked to create a camera bag that excels in the challenging mountain conditions, extensively testing all their gear in the harsh environments of Hakuba, Japan. This effort translated directly into the huge success of the Explore series.
