Reviews
Perfect pair for everyday carry and travel
"I own both the GR2 26L and the GR2 40L, and they complement each other perfectly. The 26L is my everyday carry for work, daily use, and shorter trips. I recently bought the 40L for longer one-bag adventures, and after my first test pack, I'm already extremely happy with it. The build quality is outstanding, the design is simple and functional, and these packs truly feel built for a lifetime. Highly recommended! 5/5 stars."

None can compare to GoRuck bags.
"This is an excellent GoRuck bags. I got 34L and 40L both Army Ranger colours. I love both of them. I can fit my hydration bladder in to my bag. This is my go bag when I’m travelling, hiking and biking."

"Can already tell this is going to last a lifetime. On the heavier side and a lot of money but i appriciate the art of top tier quality and lifetime products."

Great bag. Hoping for easier/better zippers.
"I am hoping the zippers are much easier to open than on my waterproof GR2. Honestly, I didn’t really want to buy another one but the zippers are so tough on the waterproof GR2, it makes it painful for every day use. Other than that, the bag is fantastic. Big fan. I gave it to my son for a trip to Japan and he absolutely loved it. It’s a great bag. Well done."

Exceptional Quality GR2
"Quality gear as always. Under promise, over deliver. The GR2 is functionally brilliant. Pockets where they should be, zippers that don’t break. Easy access to all spaces. Beyond durable, it’s engineered to last. It’s not cheap. But it will last. But once cry once but you’ll be grateful you did. K. D. Class 45"

Uncomfortable and too stiff get another model
"The decision to go with 1000D Corsairs on the straps and back panel totally ruins this product. I strongly advise getting a bag with the softer and much more comfortable 210D on the straps and back panel instead. I was ”tricked” to order this thinking it had 210D as it is used as the selling points when you scroll down. When I got the bag I needed it so thought it probably would not matter much. I was wrong. This bag itself is great but due to the stiffness of the straps and back panel I strongly urge you to get another version with 210D instead. I have a Rucker 4 and it is vastly more comfortable than this."

Shouldn't have waited
"I've been holding off on getting this one for over a year and finally bit the bullet. Wish I had done it a lot sooner. This was the perfect upgrade from my GR1 26L as my EDC pack"

Fraudulent product information
"The product page has a video and a section about how brilliant it is with 210d Cordura on the back panels and straps yet the product doesn’t have these features. Rubbish."

I haven't used it on
"I haven't used it on a trip yet but the quality seems high."

Bombproof bags for International Travel
"This is my third bag from GoRuck. I’ve got the original bullet, the GR1, and now the GR2. I’ve been very impressed with my Bullet and GR1. I’ve had each for years and they’ve been a constant companion throughout several dozen international trips. From hikes to jobsites. When. I needed a slightly larger bag for partial week trips it came down to two bags the GR2 or the GR3."
