My New Purchase: GR1 USA – Lightweight Ripstop ROBIC

July 9, 2025 By Thad Forester


I took advantage of GORUCK’s Christmas in July sale and finally got a Ripstop Robic version of the GR1, size 21L.

I’ll do a review soon after I use it sufficiently, including how easily it gets dirty and cleans up. This wouldn’t be my top pattern to get, but for the price of $199, I couldn’t turn it down.
