Here are some of the styles we are going to look at:

9/11 Never Forget Collection – Overview

Remembering is part of national history, and it is necessary to remember that in just one day, three thousand people died. First responders – the firefighters, police officers, port authority officers, and military personnel rushed to the scene to mobilize and protect the people and battle against a common enemy. This is worth remembering and essential in keeping the U.S. alert, sharp, and protected.

The GR1® is the toughest everyday carry ever made that thrives in cities, warzones, and traveling the world while rucking.

It has a bombproof laptop compartment that is further bolstered and has a false bottom so your laptop won’t even notice. A detachable, solid plastic frame sheet supports the laptop compartment and enables you to take more weight pleasantly.

Rucker 20L

Even shirtless, you can wear the new Rucker® 3.0 with no friction burn. That’s how comfortable it is. Thanks to the ergonomic lumbar support and an all-new, less abrasive fabric used on the back panel and underside of the shoulder strap. This rucksack is highly water-resistant with bottom grommet drain holes and adjustable and removable Training Sternum Strap. The lumbar padding supports the natural curve of your back, while the frame sheet supports the pack’s integrity as you weigh it down and enables you to take a bigger load more conveniently.

Ballistic Trainers – Mid

Ballistic Trainers – Mid has an 8mm heel-to-toe drop that forms the best biomechanical leverage when lifting heavy loads (squat, clean, snatch) or moving more than 400 meters (running or rucking). From forefoot to heel, two different types of EVA blended in a steady gradient. In the forefoot, the high rebound, high flexibility EVA gives cushion and support for explosive movement. In the heel, it is the firm, stable EVA that provides a stable platform to keep you grounded when lifting or squatting. The outsole has three distinct rubber compounds – the forefoot rubber is developed for improved grip while the heel area is thick and won’t wear down after miles of rucking and running.

The midfoot is developed from a rock climbing compound and toughened for extraordinary abrasion resistance — perfect for rope climbs. The extra space in the forefoot area allows your toes to breathe and decreases the abrasion that can happen if your feet brush against the interiors of your shoe. The three arches of your foot are supported with a dense, P.U. foam insert, plus a thinner insert is also incorporated if you prefer lighter arch support and want to feel closer to the ground. To avoid abrasion, the lace area, midfoot, and heel are made from two panels of 1680D CORDURA® Ballistic Nylon. The 1680D CORDURA® also grants excellent midfoot and heel support during dynamic movements. The heel counter is supportive and injection-molded to stabilize your heel when you’re doing active, load-bearing exercises. Extra top eyelets are included to prevent heel slippage and excessive movement around the ankle to create a tight heel lock.
