Picked this up directly from GORUCK's US site in November 2024, paying import duty to bring it into the UK. It's been used lightly as a weekend travel bag and is in excellent condition throughout. No scuffs, tears, or wear to speak of; I've done my best to capture the current condition in the photos.

I've made two tasteful modifications: the original zipper pulls have been replaced with custom pulls tied using Atwood 550 paracord in complementary colours, and the top carry handle has been wrapped in paracord using an axe-handle style technique. Both suit the Green Beret colourway well, and the pulls are silent and don't jingle as you walk. These changes are fully reversible if you'd prefer the factory style.

The Quick Access Pocket under the top handle is one of my favourite features on this bag: keys, phone, passport, anything you need to grab without opening the main compartment.

The Green Beret colourway is sold out on GORUCK's site and unlikely to return, making this a rare chance to pick one up second-hand.

From a smoke-free, pet-free home. Bought direct from GORUCK USA, I am the original owner. I'll pack this carefully to ensure it arrives in the same condition it leaves me. Check out my other listings, and feel free to message me with any questions!

From GORUCK:

GR1 was built to thrive in Baghdad and NYC and has been tested and proven by Green Berets to meet the life or death standards of quality, toughness, and performance. It has proven itself the world over and earned its "Greatest Of All Time" status the hard way: one deployment, one event, one trip, one mile at a time. 1,000 Events/year, 175,000+ participants, and 200+ Special Forces Cadre later, the GORUCK Challenge is the most significant quality control program of its kind. No other bag is consistently put through more abuse, and GR1 thrives.

The GR1 is built with a minimalist approach in mind and includes only the necessary features of an everyday carry rucksack: a bombproof laptop compartment, opens flat for easy packing, built with Special Forces grade materials, and soft but tough 210D Cordura on the back panel and shoulder straps so your ruck doesn't irritate your skin or chew up your apparel.

Proven to Special Forces standards, GR1 is synonymous with the best of American manufacturing. Each GR1 is built to last and comes with the SCARS Lifetime Guarantee.
