Simple but tough. You can describe GORUCK equipment and apparel as such. From footwear to rucksacks, it’s undeniable that they make things last for a long time. They are incredibly durable, overly functional, and are made with the highest quality standards using only highly tough military-grade materials.

GR2 is created to withstand the harshest environment, so you can take it with you and conquer the world. Its design is minimal outside, but on the inside, it is made of excellent bulletproof materials and has enough space to carry all your things.

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

GR2 Rucksacks – Overview

The GR2 rucksack comes in two sizes – 34L and 40L. 34L is an average-sized ruck and is perfect for shorter people (under 5’8″). It weighs 4.35 lbs with dimensions of 31.75cm x 59cm x 23cm and is suitable for short-term travel. The GR2 40L is, of course, a larger ruck and is fitted for long-term travel. It weighs 4.75 Lbs with dimensions of 31.75cm x 56cm x 23cm. Both these bags can carry laptops with a 17″+ screen. The GR2 is made of 1000D CORDURA, which is formed to be long-lasting and repellent to abrasions, cuts, and scuffs. The 1000D CORDURA is combined with mil-spec plastic hardware and constructed in the USA, making it a bag containing more than 450 lbs and a lifetime of exploitation. It uses YKK zippers constructed from parachute 550 cord (meaning it can survive in wars) and with silent, glove-friendly zipper pulls.

It opens flat, which is distinct from other top-loading backpacks, but this makes it easier for you to see and locate everything. Inside the main compartment, you will see a Molle Webbing so you can trim items and add other MOLLE accessories. There are also an elastic pocket for your documents, a hole on the top for your laptop/water bladder, and two mesh pockets (2/3 of the compartment and another 1/3 of the height).

Inside the secondary compartment, you’ll see a large zip pouch with two mesh dividers inside, another 2/3 mesh pocket right at the base, a 2/3 mesh zip compartment at the bottom, and another 1/3 fully screened pocket at the top. The GR2 comes with GORUCK’s Scars Lifetime Guarantee.

Something can be nearly perfect, but nothing is 100% perfect, so let’s talk about the downside of the GR2 Rucksack. Both 34L and 40L weigh 4.75 lbs which are chunkier and heavier than GR3. There is no question with durability, but this ruck is not for light hiking or backpacking or if you will travel on budget airlines as this will swallow the weight allowance of your carry-on luggage.

Another downside is the price. With a whopping $375, it really is on the expensive side and will be a little harder to justify. But if you are willing to splurge and are looking for a rucksack with extreme durability and will last a lifetime, you will love this minimal yet functional rucksack.

GR2 Rucksacks Review – In Summary

That’s our review of GR2 Rucksacks.

If you need an excellent travel backpack built that will withstand the severest environment, there is no doubt this is the suitable rucksack for you. The brand, the materials used, its durability, and functionality are all outstanding, but it comes at a price. Some features like the bombproof compartment and bulletproof backpack are a bit of overkill, especially to someone who is an occasional traveler.

Here’s the new 24.7 Cold Weather Vest from GORUCK. Without sacrificing warmth, vests can replace light to mid-weight jackets while offering versatility and a full range of motion. They render adequate insulation to keep you warm, and because of their breathable property and sleeveless fit, they also stop you from overheating as you move. Here are some of the styles we are going to look at: 24.7 Cold Weather Vest – Overview The 24.7 Cold Weather Vest is made comprehensively with detailed attention. This vest is produced because vests are a near-perfect layer — more than a t-shirt but less than an oversized jacket with plenty of zippered pockets that makes them ideal for traveling. Another reason is that, at some point, power vests became a statement of environmental bona fides and politics. As for environmentalism — USA-built materials that never disappoint and won’t end up in a landfill is about as environmentally mindful as it gets. As for politics, you’ll find the colors of the American Flag — red, white, and blue in the Vest of Power. The 24.7 [Read more …]
