For the traveler who packs light but goes hard, the GORUCK GR2 X-pac Backpack is built for any adventure you could possibly plan.
The 26L size makes it ideal for hopping on and off plains, trains, buses, and boats, and the combination of an ultra-tough, weatherproof, and near-bulletproof X-Pac VX21 exterior, 400D Packcloth inner lining, and YKK AquaGuard zippers ensure that your clothing will stay bone-dry even in monsoon season or a shipwreck.
The integrated laptop compartment features extra padding and a false bottom that will protect your electronics in case your bag falls or drops, and packing/accessing your contents is made easy thanks to the military medic-inspired, open-flat design.
Best of all, it’s backed by a lifetime guarantee that will gladly replace it should anything befall the bag while you travel. It’s a stellar backpack that promises to be as tough as you are.
