Built for Distance Rucking

Purpose built for long range Rucking and Rucking Events like GORUCK Selection and other endurance events. You have a heavy pack out and you move out for miles and miles on end and you want the most comfortable rucksack ever built on your back.

The Rucker Long Range has padded straps and the fabric used on the back panel and underside of the shoulder straps will not cause friction burn. You can even wear it shirtless and it plays well with delicate fabrics like Merino. There is also Lumbar Support via an additional 30mm of EVA foam padding along the bottom section of the back panel that supports the natural curve of your back. It’s raised up, protects you from friction from seams on pants or belts. And if it’s exposed to your skin, that’s no problem either.

With 2 large compartments and multiple pockets, there is plenty of room for supplies and you can keep everything in its place.

Ruck Plate Compatibility

The Rucker® has been purpose-built for weighted PT and to be the best rucking backpack ever built.

The 39L Rucker® features two (2) Ruck Plate® pockets, one that holds a 10LB, 20LB or 30LB Standard Ruck Plate (secondary pocket) and one that holds a 45LB Plate or 30LB Long Ruck Plate (primary pocket).

Note: If you need more than 75 lbs (good on you) there’s plenty of room for a Filler Bag in the main rucksack compartment or you can always add a Sandbag for even more fun.

Elevated Plate Pockets

The elevated plate pockets keep the weight high and secure on your back, which is the preferred method for rucking. This will help prevent any injuries or friction on your back. The Long Range Rucker® features 2 elevated plate pockets, one that holds 20LB or 30LB (Standard) Ruck Plates® and one that holds a 45LB Plate, 20LB (Long), or 30LB (Long). This means your Rucker® can hold up to 75 lbs of weight.

Don't Be Afraid to Get Wet

The Long Range Rucker® features four drain holes. When you’re carrying up to 75lbs of plates, you don’t need water sloshing around the inside of your bag as well.

The Gym on Your Back
