GORUCK tests every product between 2-4 years to be able to claim that they make the best gear on the planet for the toughest users anywhere.
I got into rucking in 2010 after my little brother, who was an Air Force Combat Controller, was KIA in Afghanistan. After his death, I started a 28-mile memorial walk/ruck that we’ve held every year since his death. I needed dependable, functional and comfortable clothing and gear for that event; which means I’d need it for all the training too. Fortunately, I found GORUCK a few years after his death and the first 28-mile event (which was actually 30 miles).
Although I’ve been using GORUCK gear since 2015, I only became an affiliate in 2023. This means I will earn a small commission if you use my links to purchase the products. This is at no extra charge to you and helps me keep the lights on! Please understand that these are not just items I list to earn money, but products I believe in and use on a regular basis.
I own and use the following:
GR1
GR2
Bullet Rucker 15L
MACV-1 boots
Jedburgh boots
Ballistic Trainer shoes
Multiple Sand kettlebells
Multiple Sandbags
Rough Runners Shoes
Too many to count of GR clothing–shirts, pants, shorts, pullovers, jackets, sweatpants, accessories, etc. The clothing is durable, fast-drying, looks good and easy to run, move and ruck in.
Also just got their new Merino Challenge Socks that I’m testing and will review in the near future.
