Domke bags in San Francisco

<p>Hi guys, <br>

is there any shop recommendation in SFO where I can buy a Domke F-2 Ruggedwear Shooters Bag? Calumet does not have it in stock :-(<br>

<p>The closest place I know that carries Domke bags is Keeble and Shuchat in Palo Alto. That is about 45 minutes drive south on 101. I would call them at 650-327-8996.</p>

<p>Domke F-2 Ruggedwear - you're paying a premium for treatment that's doubtful at best. Better to buy a regular Domke or better still the Chinese knock-off from eBay (Safrotto), then some NikWax TX.Direct Spray-On from an outdoor supplier like REI. Three coats of the Nikwax and the bag will be waterproof and still soft. Nikwax was originally formulated to protect canvas tents.</p>

<p>Don't believe <a href="http://www.tiffen.com/domke_buyers_beware.html">what you read on the Domke site</a> , their products are now rubbish and no competition for the Chinese knock-offs. Tiffen have ruined the company.</p>

<p>If you happen to be going to the East Bay, Looking Glass Photo on Telegraph in Berkeley carries Domke. They had a couple of F-2s last time I was in there but I don't know if they carrey the Ruggedwear bags. You should call before going.</p>
