There is a reason that the backpacks from the guys at GORUCK are favoured by the military – namely, they are purpose-built to take a battering so whether you’re using it on the battlefield or heading to the gym, it’s got your back, literally and metaphorically. There are few better examples of the quality of GORUCK’s backpacks than the M22 which is a small but perfectly formed carry that is chock full of fantastic features and crafted from top-quality materials.
The GORUCK M22 Backpack will set you back $195 and it is available in three stealthy colourways – namely, Coyote Brown + Black, Ranger Green + Black and Black – and you’ll not need another backpack for many years to come if you make the M22 your next investment. It is style, substance and functionality rolled into one – what’ not to like?
Soldiers in the US military have been issued bags since before the civil war. Originally, these were Knapsacks. Rugged, single cavity bags built for long movements. The need for more pockets and organization for rapid access to smaller essentials like food, water, and weaponry brought us the M1945 during WWII. It was named after the year it was manufactured and issued. These are the bags that inspired the guys at GORUCK to develop the M22 Backpack, also named after the year it is manufactured and “issued”.
For this release GORUCK has Enhanced the M1945 to the GORUCK standard of extra padded shoulder straps, the highest calibre YKK zippers, a streamlined closure system, and a bombproof laptop compartment – something sorely missing from the WWII version. It’s lightweight, low profile for everyday carry, and each one is crafted from robust materials that you can trust won’t let you down when push comes to shove.
