GR2 ORIGINS
The Original Go-Bag
My “go-bag” in Iraq was more the size of a GR2 and was big, heavy, and full of lots of stuff I would need if our vehicle got disabled and we needed to fight for our lives. When I was back home in America, “go-bag” became “go-ruck” became GORUCK, and GR2 became our flagship travel ruck and my personal favorite.
The GR2 X-PAC backpack is highly regarded for its exceptional durability and quality, making it suitable for various conditions and travel needs. Crafted from X-PAC VX21, it is lightweight, waterproof, and ultra-durable. The bag features a bombproof laptop compartment, multiple pockets, and MOLLE attachments for customization.

Reviews
"Awesome pack. I have both the GR1 21L xpac and the GR2 USA 40L. The GR1 is on the small side and the GR2 USA is a bit big and on the heavy side. The GR2 34L xpac is just perfectly situated in the middle. Best of both worlds. Perfect everyday pack for work/gym/short daytrips"

11 years later
"I’ve never wrote a review on something that’s 11 years old. First time for everything I guess! The GR2 I ordered in 2015. One year as a police officer and I wanted a robust rucksack. So I went for the GR2 and it’s never let me down. Still serving and so is the GR2. Honestly, I’ve used the GR2 daily for 11 years and even used it on holidays and trips out. I’ve never once had an issue with the zips, the buckles, mesh pockets, handles, molle or straps. The bottle pocket and field pocket are awesome to! The only thing I haven’t used (Come to think of it, I don’t know where it is!) is the waist belt. If you’re thinking about a rucksack for daily use and abuse; Goruck is the one. The reason I’m reviewing, is because I’m looking for something else and Goruck have a range of great kit. Then I thought, I best leave a review for the rucksack I still use!"

Best purchase of my life
"Vietnamese version has AMAZING build quality"
— Emil P. (5/5)
Good quality except for the design of the zippers.
"The materials and workmanship of the backpack are very good. I really like the look of it, and it provides the organization I was hoping for. What I find very annoying is opening and closing the two main compartments of the backpack. The backpack gets stuck in both curves of the opening and can only be opened and closed with a lot of force. This is because the rain cover overlaps the zipper and is extremely tight. I really hope that this will improve with use, as it is very annoying and I don't understand why it was designed this way. All in all, I am reasonably satisfied with it."

No words needed
"I was waiting for this backpack quite a long time as the EU shop is always sold out. Once 1 pc appears there, sometimes after midnight, I bought it without thinking. Goruck is legend. It arrived in 3 days and I am not disappointed. The look, the build, the flexibility with molle, the space inside. . . I packed for a 2 weeks trip absolutely easily. If I need to pick 1 thing that I can take with me on an uninhabited island, it would not be a Goruck backpack. Now I have one :-) !"

Worth Every Penny
"The GORUCK GR2 40L is hands down the best travel backpack I’ve ever owned. Made from 1000D Cordura, it’s tough as nails, with bombproof stitching and YKK zippers that can take a beating. The clamshell design and multiple compartments make packing effortless, while the thick shoulder straps keep it comfortable, even when fully loaded. It’s spacious, carry-on compliant, and built to last a lifetime. If you want a rugged, versatile, and well-organized travel bag, this is it."
