FABRIC DETAILS: WAXED DUCK CANVAS

The use of 10.10oz Army Duck Canvas can be traced back all the way to the mid-19th century. Army Duck canvas is a medium-weight, versatile fabric. The way that it is constructed is with an incredibly tight weave of the yarn, making it tough and resistant to tearing. The extra layer of wax protects the fabric from different elements you may encounter, and makes the fabric waterproof, yet allows it to sweat vapor and still not stiffen or yellow over time. It only looks better with age and use.

BOMBPROOF LAPTOP COMPARTMENT

The separate compartment is extra padded to securely take a laptop into combat (or the office).
The Shoulder Bag - Waxed Canvas by GORUCK, crafted from black fabric with leather accents, includes a sturdy handle, shoulder strap, and front pocket. It is embellished with a brown leather patch featuring the GORUCK brand name in the bottom right corner. Placed on a wooden surface against a sleek black background, this bag is an essential accessory for any professional.

STRONGEST POSSIBLE DUCK CANVAS

Naval battles and ‘tea-races’ from China to London in the mid-19th century were the proving grounds that led to the perfect waxed canvas. It’s been trusted by the military for decades, and when coupled with a waxing process proven over the past 170 years, you get an insanely durable, good-looking finish.

Reviews

Rugged Work/Travel Bag

"As a construction manager, needed something that can be tossed around but more professional than a backpack. Went through lots of bags before spending the money to get this, and wish I would’ve sooner. Perfect for my laptop, extra gear and then food/drinks for a day trip or even done clothes for a quick overnight. I drop the strap on truck-to-office days and use it when traveling. Only looking better with time, best work bag I’ve had!"

Indestructible modern briefcase/shoulder bag

"Goruck shoulder bag is a modern take on a briefcase design and when made from waxed canvas its spectacular. I chose it black waxed canvas, (and it is black no blue hue) and it's just as home in a formal setting as it is in a rugged outdoor setting. The internal section is divided into 2 compartments the narrower one is Goruck's famous bomb proof compartment perfect laptops and other expensive & sensitive items. The other larger compartment Includes several different sized zip pocket and an open cavity to accommodate odd shaped and bulkier items. The padded divider between the 2 compartments is slightly raised from the bottom which allow the divider to slightly float either way which can make either compartment slightly bigger or smaller. This is a so great when you that item that just won't quite fit because with float it now does."

Excellent laptop bag

"Laptop is well protected and the bag itself had deceptively a lot of capacity, looks great too and had a lot of compliments in the office"

Makes a great flight bag

"I got this to use as a flight bag for my headset, iPad, and everything I take with me when I fly. It’s the perfect size and looks cool. I love the interior pockets for keeping things organized. I’ve had goruck bags since 2013 and know this is going to last forever too. So glad goruck made this!"

Great Bag

"Great smaller bag. I’ve had a GR2 for about 10 years and it’s gone everywhere with me. I’ve been looking for something smaller to just hold the essentials and when I saw this I bought it immediately. Build quality is good. The waxed canvas is really nice. It looks very professional while still being tough. Holds my laptop, chargers, headphones and an iPad and everything is easy to locate and access. Great bag."
