From the brand

How did we get our start?

While I was in Special Forces and Emily was in the CIA, we started GORUCK out of her house in war-torn West Africa. The goal was pretty simple: build a rucksack with life-or-death quality standards that would thrive in Baghdad and NYC.

What makes our products unique?

The GORUCK Challenge was born in 2010. 1,000 Events/year, 175,000+ participants and 200+ Special Forces Cadre later, the gear is battle tested.

Why do we love what we do?

Service is a way of life and that’s our northern star and we’re grateful to the community for the support. We would not exist without you.

Founders

— Jason & Emily McCarthy

Customers find the backpack durable and functional, with good versatility as a plate carrier, and appreciate its effectiveness for building strength while walking. The fit and comfort receive mixed feedback – while some find it comfortable, others report it doesn’t accommodate 45 lbs plates and causes discomfort in the shoulder design. The weight distribution and value for money also get mixed reviews, with some finding it worth the price while others consider it grossly overpriced.
