Reviews

Sehr robuster Rucksack

"Ein sehr robuster Rucksack, der viel aushält. Er ist kein Leichtgewicht und der Preis auch nicht. Trotzdem würde ich den Rucksack empfehlen!"

— Karl O. (5/5)

GR3

"Just took a week long trip and this was a perfect fit for one bag travel. Solidly made like all GoRuck bags! Especially like the top pocket for tucking keys, wallet and phone when going thru TSA security. I also have a Rucker 4. 0 for the last 2-1/2 years which I use constistently and shows no wear. Expecting the same from this bag!"

— John N. (5/5)

Good for life!

"A perfect travel match with my GR1. No surprises, nothing fancy, just superior craftsmanship and good for life."

— J.R. S. (5/5)

Excited to break this thing

"Excited to break this thing in. The zipper is a little tough to manage with the fabric but once it breaks in it’ll be perfect. I do love the material and look of the waterproof bag versus my other bags. Definitely recommend."

— Daniel S. (5/5)

fantastic quality product. I'd wanted

"fantastic quality product. I'd wanted one of these for a long time - to pack on trips where my GR1 just wasn't quite big enough."

— Michael M. (5/5)

a great gift!

"It’s a christmas gift for a family member, all I know is that he was very specific in wanting this specific item and brand."

— Marie S. (5/5)

Excellent

"I’ve been wanting this bag for a while and it does not disappoint. I would prefer a slicker strap material for the side buckles and a 500D base."

— Cornell B. (5/5)

Carry on bag

"Light, feels like it’s well made as expected. Will make a great travel bag"

— Terry C. (5/5)

Great

"Great"

— Lukas T. (5/5)

Everywhere Travel 💦 GR3

"After using my first GR3 for over 5y and travelling the world and hike the GR20, Europe's hardest long distance hike, I am even more happy with the X-Pac as its truly waterproof and I don‘t even need to worry about my electronics or use dry bags anymore."

— Kris S. (5/5)
