Field note

Not every mission needs the big ruck. Pack it light, hike it fast, be home for dinner.

Why it made the cut

Built for one day

25 L carries water, layers, food and the small stuff without the bulk of an overnight ruck.

MOLLE front and sides

Clip on The Sustainment Kit or any MOLLE pouch.

Same three colors

Army green, Coyote or Black, matched to The Ruck 45L and The Sustainment Kit.

Field tips

  1. Put water and the heaviest gear against your back, layers and snacks up front.
  2. Training with weight? Start around 10% of your body weight and add a little each week.
  3. Tighten the straps so the pack rides high. A sagging pack is what wears out your shoulders.
