About
Nestled in the heart of the San Francisco Leather Cultural District, Bunker Gear was born out of a desire to meet the needs of the vibrant gay and fetish community that calls this city home. After welcoming countless newcomers eager to immerse themselves in the culture, a recurring question inspired this journey: "Where in San Francisco can I buy my first piece of rubber?" Unfortunately, the answer was always the same—there just wasn’t a local option.
What started as a personal passion project—creating custom gear for myself and my friends—quickly grew into something much larger. Frustrated by the high costs and long waits for custom pieces shipped from halfway across the globe, I began crafting gear that was not only accessible but tailored to the unique needs of our community.

Over time, I realized how much I loved this creative process—so much, in fact, that I left my career as a software engineer. The joy of crafting pieces that people truly love and feel empowered wearing has been deeply rewarding. Bunker Gear isn’t just a business—it’s a labor of love and a way to give back to a community that has given me so much.
Whether you’re new to the scene or a seasoned veteran, I’m thrilled to share my passion with you and help you find the perfect piece to express yourself. Welcome to Bunker Gear.
