Luggage Bags and Packs

I have been loving mine snow. feels better and better with wear. The front loading is sweet. You can either un zip a little and use like a normal backpack or just slam it open and dump stuff in or out. Will keep you updated on the stitching, will be getting a work out this month and will be busting open on the plane home.

LOL @ zippergate. Im finding that hilarious. Im not surprised in the least that once they outsourced things, it started to go down hill.

Yep, the foam and padded dividers just slide out. This style hard case is pretty standard for all my Pro photographer buddies when traveling. I finally got one.
I checked out the Rimowa's the other day. Sure, they're nice but there's no reason for me to have one right now. Maybe if I need a huge suitcase one day I'll get a 32" but I highly doubt it.
how has the SBK been? I just bought a Pelican 1514 for my camera stuff, and remembered this case as well. I think the pelican is a bit smaller, at this point that is ok by me.

I love it. It's a tank. I've traveled with it probably 6-8 times now and it only has a few scratches on it.

Just received a new Maxpedition FliegerDuffel and am waiting on a Goruck Radio Ruck in the limited edition color, Ranger Green.
Was looking for a nice duffle type bag since I sold my IH duffle. Really liking this multi use bag so far.
What sold me on this was the hidden backpack straps and that it's sized specifically to flight carry-on dimensions.
The moment I saw this colorway I just had to get it.
Edit: They changed the size of the Radio Ruck without being clear on the site. The new Radio Ruck now only fits a 13in Laptop where the old version fit a 15in laptop. I complained to customer service, sent the green radio ruck back and exchanged it for an SK26. Well, a few days after I get that one they release a new GR0 size that's comparable to the old Radio ruck size. Why they didn't just tell me there was a size coming out like that is beyond me. SO, I'm sending back the SK26(it's too big for my height when not completely full and there is no molle to attach compression straps) to exchange for the GR0.

I have a RR in black and its a good bag, I'm sure you will like it.

Im not a fan of all that mollee webbing all over the duffel. I mean, how modular does a duffel need to be. I get it on back packs. Hope your GoRuck isnt a dud.

why would the goruck be a dud. Their products are the IH of the tactical backpack world

read a few pages back.. I guess quality went south when they started outsourcing. Im not sure if that was resolved yet.

All I can say is I have used my GR1 6 days a week since February 10th carrying either 6 bricks or (2) 20lb sand bags, plus water, snack etc… mile after mile after mile roughly 1000 miles if you want to be technical. It has been through freezing rains, & stifling heat and this bad boy helped me keep going. This pack has become an extension of me. I cannot recommend GORUCK packs enough.

sure, and you shouldnt expect anything less. still hope urban manages to avoid the situation that many people on the EDC forum were unhappy about.

I won't be hiking the Himalayas or hunting down the Taliban so I should be fine. Also, if I did have an issue, all I have to do is send the bag in for repair or replacement for free. $195(w/20% discount) for a Made in USA bag with a lifetime warranty isn't bad if you ask me.

SpaceGnome, I've been tracking it since I first brought it up, GORUCK's manufacturing issues seem to have been resolved around march/april this year.
good to hear!
