FROM BAGHDAD TO NYC

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.

Special Forces Grade Materials

1000 Denier Cordura is the preferred material for all Special Forces Rucks because it is resistant to the rigors of everything, including war. It's tried and tested.

Frame Sheet for Added Stability

A removable, hard plastic frame sheet stabilizes the laptop compartment and allows you to carry more weight comfortably.

MOLLE Attachments

3 rows of external and internal MOLLE webbing let you customize GR1 how you want.

Padded Straps & Handle

Shoulder straps and top handle are extra padded to carry heavier loads more comfortably.

Rainproof

1000D Cordura is highly water resistant aka rainproof.

Silent Zipper Pulls

YKK zippers with silent, glove friendly zipper pulls constructed from parachute 550 cord.

Organized and Accessible

GR1 opens flat to make it easier to pack, organize, and find something when on the go. Special Forces medical rucks share a similar design. Inside you'll find 3 interior pockets: 1 large elastic pocket, 1 large mesh zippered pocket, and 1 small go-to pocket.

Bombproof Laptop Compartment

The separate compartment next to your back is extra reinforced to securely take a laptop into combat. The frame sheet adds structure and stability so it's not you computer that's keeping the GR1 in its shape. Keep your most important item of gear safe wherever you go.

Built in the USA

The GR1 backpack is proudly American-made, built right here at home using GORUCK construction techniques proven by Special Forces soldiers in the harshest environments on planet earth. Then we spent years honing it into the American icon it is today.
