GoRuck claim the GR1 is the best rucksack ever built, and now this durable pack gets a heritage redesign with the strongest possible duck canvas and 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.

Naval battles and ‘tea-races’ from China to London in the mid-19th century were the proving grounds that led to the perfect waxed canvas with a Martexin finish, complemented with Red Wing Leather.

The retains its original design features, proven by Green Berets on standards of quality, toughness, and performance - including taking a laptop into combat. This pack has earned its GOAT status the hard way: one deployment, one event, one trip, one mile at a time. the GR1 is a truly hard rucksack that is more than comfortable bearing all the weight you want to throw in it, anywhere in the world.

GORUCK was founded in 2008 by a Special Forces veteran and a CIA operative with a simple but uncompromising mission: to build rucksacks tough enough to survive conflict in Baghdad, daily life in New York City, and everywhere in between, while teaching people how to operate smartly and safely in the harshest environments. Born without a business plan and built on all-in commitment, GORUCK grew from a personal project into a global community of people who reject the easy life and embrace challenge, service, and adventure. Guided by the belief that survival and resilience demand giving more, not less, GORUCK continues to inspire ordinary people to do extraordinary things, grounded in gratitude for the community that makes the journey possible.

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