The Project
This project took many months to complete due to the fully customized material and construction of a well known bag from GORUCK.
The GR1 has been around for about a decade and started to show its age in comparison to other products on the market. We wanted to bring new life to the product through custom materials and artwork. I work with the creative team at Carryology to source materials and create custom components that make this product special. We source domestic manufacturing finish the denim with a lamination and construct this one of a kind bag.
