It also has a thick, padded 210D Cordura nylon back panel and shoulder straps to help users comfortably carry the weight of the bag and its contents. And, as is always the case, the craftsmanship and stitching is extremely high-quality.

Perhaps most crucially, this bag (like its siblings) comes with GoRuck’s rock-solid Scars Lifetime Guarantee. That means, in using it as intended (to haul heavy sh*t), the brand will repair it free of charge should any of its parts fail you.

The right side shows the back of the backpack with padded shoulder straps and a top handle. The back panel features stitched padding for comfort.
The bag’s stability is mated to a thick back panel and shoulder straps, ensuring comfort regardless of activity.

Accidental(?) versatility

Despite its purpose-driven design process, I believe this bag is secretly an exceptional everyday carry backpack — largely because of its rucking-friendly features.

Obviously, the external durability and exceptional construction is significant, as it means the bag will last through thick and thin. However, there are other features that are just as valuable, if perhaps a bit more sneakily.
