RUCKS & GEAR All Rucksacks

Purpose built for long range Rucking and Rucking Events like GORUCK Selection and other endurance events. You have a heavy pack out and you move out for miles and miles on end and you want the most comfortable rucksack ever built on your back.

The Rucker Long Range has padded straps and the fabric used on the back panel and underside of the shoulder straps will not cause friction burn. You can even wear it shirtless and it plays well with delicate fabrics like Merino. There is also Lumbar Support via an additional 30mm of EVA foam padding along the bottom section of the back panel that supports the natural curve of your back. It’s raised up, protects you from friction from seams on pants or belts. And if it’s exposed to your skin, that’s no problem either.

With 2 large compartments and multiple pockets, there is plenty of room for supplies and you can keep everything in its place.

The Rucker® has been purpose-built for weighted PT and to be the best rucking backpack ever built.

The 39L Rucker® features two (2) Ruck Plate® pockets, one that holds a 10LB, 20LB or 30LB Standard Ruck Plate (secondary pocket) and one that holds a 45LB Plate or 30LB Long Ruck Plate (primary pocket).

Note: If you need more than 75 lbs (good on you) there’s plenty of room for a Filler Bag in the main rucksack compartment or you can always add a Sandbag for even more fun.

Breathe better when rucking or training — with our innovative Curved Ruck Plates (yes there’s a big hole in them, yes it works great), you can talk better to the person next to you, or push even harder in your training without suffocating your diaphragm. Combine breathing better with rucksack straps that disperse the weight expertly, and this is a best in class weight vest.

We believe that the more comfortable something is, the more you’ll want to use it. And given all the gains to be had from carrying weight, we hope you use it hard and have fun in the sun doing it.

Sizing: L is designed to fit most men. The front and back panels are identical across sizes, the difference is in the shoulder straps and cummerbund. As a result, the S may sit higher on bigger people.

The world sees one fight, one battle, one heroic act. A hero prevails, an enemy falls, and we celebrate for all of eternity. What’s not shown are the thousands of hours that go into one moment. The commitment to excellence, the willingness to put it all on the line.

Remaining true to yourself at all costs.

Achilles is calling. Pick it up, don it over your shoulders, tighten it down. As long as you have breath in your lungs and blood in your heart, keep moving.

We build the tools, you master them — one step, one rep at a time.

Achilles has you covered.

The world is full of cut-rate, toxic-smelling women’s weight vests marketed to everyone — bad for women, worse for men. The Achilles is built to a completely different standard. We forge this Men’s Weighted Vest from premium materials that are 100% clean, non-toxic, and built to handle a lifetime of sweat and abuse without breaking down. No toxic shortcuts, no chemical burns—just pure, rugged performance.

IMPERISHABLE GLORY: Like every piece of GORUCK gear, the Achilles is backed by our Scars Lifetime Guarantee.

The Ruck Plate Carrier (aka RPC) houses a Ruck Plate perfectly and is worn high and tight on your back for natural stability. Your chest stays open so you can breathe better to ruck longer.

The RPC is built for comfort under weight, with a padded top handle, cushioned plate pocket, ergonomic lumbar support, and a non-abrasive back panel and shoulder straps — so comfortable you can wear it against your skin, no friction burn, no problem.

When in doubt, start with 20LBS.

If you have big traps, go with the RPC LONG.

The Ruck Plate Carrier (Standard) is ideal for carrying 10LB, 20LB, or 30LB Standard Ruck Plates. It’s the perfect place to start if you’re new to rucking or want to add some extra suck to your workouts. The Ruck Plate Carrier (Long) fits a 30LB Long or 45LB Long plate and is ideal if you’re a larger guy. The Ruck Plate Carrier (Heavy) carries up to two 45lb plates (or a 45 + a 30 Long, etc.) for your toughest rucks.

You're looking for the MVP of streamlined EDC (Everyday Carry), and you want to protect your laptop with extreme prejudice, all over the world. The 16L Bullet Ruck does just that. We build it out of CORDURA with a single main compartment and a laptop compartment next to your back (comparable to GR1). The back panel provides additional lumbar support (comparable to the Rucker) to help maintain comfort and good posture — not hunched over, but upright, as God intended.

As with all our rucksacks, the Bullet Ruck rides high and stable on your back and comes with our Scars Lifetime Guarantee.

GR0 "The Zero" is one of our original three rucks (previously known as the GR Echo). It retains the functionality of the GR1, including the bombproof laptop compartment, built for smaller frames.

Crafted from a fabric initially designed for high-performance racing sails. X-PAC is lightweight, ultra-durable, and waterproof—key features needed to withstand the intense forces of the open ocean. Tested in Central American rainforests and the deserts of New Mexico, this rucksack protects your gear from water, sand, dust, and whatever else gets in your way, and comes with our Scars Lifetime Guarantee.

GR1® was built to thrive in Baghdad and NYC and has been tested and proven by Green Berets to meet the life or death standards of quality, toughness, and performance. It has proven itself the world over and earned its “Greatest Of All Time” status the hard way: one deployment, one event, one trip, one mile at a time. 1,000 Events/year, 175,000+ participants, and 200+ Special Forces Cadre later, the GORUCK Challenge is the most significant quality control program of its kind. No other bag is consistently put through more abuse, and GR1 thrives.

The GR1 is built with a minimalist approach in mind and includes only the necessary features of an everyday carry rucksack: a bombproof laptop compartment, opens flat for easy packing, and built with Special Forces grade materials.

Proven to Special Forces standards, GR1 is synonymous with the best of American Manufacturing. Each GR1 is built to last and comes with our Scars Lifetime Guarantee.

August 2026 Updates: MOLLE webbing on the shoulder straps and a brand new full-grain leather stars and stripes Spearhead patch.

GR1, the best rucksack ever built, meets time proven heavy canvas and construction.

Heritage means it’s proven by our grandfathers, and our grandfather’s grandfathers. And that it will last the test of time for those generations who come after us. For materials, we chose the strongest possible duck canvas with a waxing process proven over the last 170 years, giving the Heritage a retro canvas rucksack look with the durability you'd expect from a GR1.

The Double Compartment Bullet Ruck is the most simple and streamlined ruck to use during travel. It offers all the pockets and organization you need to travel light and hands-free—including a bombproof laptop compartment to keep your tech protected.

Use it as a daypack or your go-to carry-on. With more pockets, more liters, and a second exterior compartment for even better organization, it’s built to replace your rolling bag and go anywhere. Ready for anything.

Proudly overbuilt and backed by our Scars Lifetime Guarantee.

The GR2 was designed as the bag you could travel the world with. Now, with waterproof X-PAC and AquaGuard zippers, GR2 is ready for the worst-case scenario where the elements are concerned.

Crafted from a fabric initially designed for high-performance racing sails. X-PAC 33 in Multicam is lightweight, ultra-durable, and waterproof—key features needed to withstand the intense forces of the open ocean. This is what we take to Costa Rica - the most bio-intense space, according to National Geographic.

This bag is ready for anything—from the rain-soaked trails of Costa Rica to city streets, giving you the confidence to carry your gear in all conditions.

Traveling hands-free is freedom and nobody brings a roll bag on an adventure. Never check a bag and never drag anything behind you ever again with GR3®.

The 45L GR3 is the largest possible carry-on rucksack, sized to fit in the overhead bin of all major airlines.

The 35L GR3 maximizes packing space in a compact form factor, sized to fit in all overhead bins.

It’s big, tough, and overbuilt with the best Specs + Materials on the market. Proudly backed by our Scars Lifetime Guarantee.

Quality is life or death to us, and when we build our gear, we only choose tested and proven Specs + Materials that can withstand any environment. That’s why we’ve taken our original GR1 rucksack and built it with X-PAC® and AquaGuard zippers.

Woodland Camo M81—this was my first uniform in the Army. I love this pattern. We decided to do a Heritage version of it, but what we have here is a batch of "Seconds."

We don't have very many of them, but here's what happened: when you dye the Heritage fabric, it starts out as greige—which is essentially a raw, white fabric. The fabric is supposed to be dyed all the way through so that both sides match.

With this specific batch, that didn't happen. The interior fabric didn't dye all the way through, meaning it stayed white on the inside. Because of that, this batch classifies as a Seconds. Everything else on the pack is completely awesome—you still get the full-grain leather handles and all the premium features you'd expect from a Heritage pack.

If you look really closely at certain spots where the pack is sewn together, you can see a little bit of that white underside peeking through. Now, there are definitely ways to treat that if it bothers you so that it isn't white. One of the best ways to do that is just sweat, travel, and the natural dirt from all of your adventures.

Since these are Seconds, we're offering the few we have at a nice markdown. If you want a killer M81 pack and don't mind the white interior, grab one while they last.

The 15L Bullet is a grab and go daypack. One day it’s a trip to the pool, the next you’re stuffing jackets and snacks into your backpack for a day hike. It also makes a solid pack to loan a friend who is new to rucking and thinks their cheap book bag will be just fine — which it will be, till it won’t.

If you’re looking for ALL THE WEIGHT, go with a Rucker. If you want streamlined and highly packable, go with the 15L Bullet.

Badass and overbuilt with locking front buckles you can run over in a Humvee and they'll be fine — we partnered once again with long time friend Mike Vallely, the grittiest skateboarder in history and GORUCK Tough Alum from 2011 — to create the Skate Ruck, which thrives in any and every condition imaginable.

The badass lock down straps giving this a signature look can hold a skateboard, but also a snowboard, towel, yoga mat, or whatever else you want to lash on and bring along. Make it yours and use it your way.

We started the design with our proven Double Bullet Ruck, our simplest and most streamlined ruck to use during travel. It offers all the pockets and organization you need to travel light and hands-free, including a bombproof laptop compartment to keep your tech protected.

Proudly overbuilt AF and backed by our Scars Lifetime Guarantee.

All Skate Rucks come with a leather embossed "V" patch — for Vallely, and Victory.
