If anyone needs a pack that can take a beating, get tossed around, muddy, wet, and still function — it's our kids. They need a ruck that’s just as tough as they are. Special Forces tough.
Built with the same indestructible 1000D Cordura, rock-solid YKK zippers, and reinforced stitching as our adult rucks. This pack won’t break, unlike those flimsy book bags that fall apart and are headed to the landfill within a month of buying them.
The Kid Ruck has an internal sleeve for a tablet or notebook, an organizer pocket for pens and pencils, and still plenty of room for books and a lunchbox inside. Extra-padded straps make heavier loads easier, and the front kangaroo pocket allows for quick access to pencils, toys, and snacks.
It is time for a bag that can stand up to your kids and be handed down to the next generation.
