The End of GORUCK Rough Runners?

October 31, 2025 By Thad Forester

goruck rough runners


GORUCK is closing out the Rough Runners. Built them from scratch for ruck running, training, and the life many of us live. Work like a champ. For me? They are my 100% go-to for all street/path rucking, especially long distance since GORUCK released them in 2023. I’m not a runner, only a rucker. These have proven to be unmatched by any other shoes for carrying heavy weight over long distance (disclaimer: for paths, not trails b/c then I use shoes with ankle support).

GORUCK says they are not a running company, which these shoes are also geared toward. That message didn’t land.

They have inventory sitting here. Our gain. Fifty bucks a pair. They won’t stick around. Very few sizes left, but I managed to get an 11.5 today.

Grab them. Make your own luck. Get yours and read about here on GORUCK’s site.
