Description
The Padded Carry Handle is an awesome multi-purpose piece of gear. It can easily be attached to a ruck using one or two carabiners and the ruck’s MOLLE webbing. For more details on how the attachment is made please check out the video below. In addition to being a new handle/grab point for the ruck the handle can be used as an attachment point for other pieces of gear.
The carry handle is most commonly used in GORUCK events to help lift the pack over your head for overhead presses. In addition it acts as an extra grab point for ruck PT and even for just pulling out of your trunk. Did you lose strap privlidges? No problem… use your main backpack handle and the attached ruck carry handle to easily distribute your pack’s load.
We do our absolute best to match the colors that GORUCK uses for their packs… however we don’t own every GORUCK pack in every color so the match might not be 100%. We order our materials from places that specialize BERRY compliant soft goods which are used to make packs for the military so the match is as good as we can get it.
The Padded Carry Handle is made of 2 layers of MIL-W-43668 heavy-weight nylon webbing. It includes 1/4″ closed-cell neoprene padding enclosed in a 1000D Cordura padding shell. The sewing is done in the USA using Dabond industrial polyester anti-wick thread. It is incredibly tough and has been proven time and time again to hold up to the toughest abuse.
Red Line & Blue Line handles are more expensive so that we can donate more to charity.

Strong awesome handle. Great video on how to connect it to a ruck. Will take a beating.
Michael Pannell (verified owner) –
I have a Rucker 2.0 without a bottom handle. It has a lot of life left, but another handle would help with some of the PT. The carry handle is great and solves the problem. Highly recommend it.

Great quality, love those handles
Hugh Donohue (verified owner) –
Great product! I have one on each of my GoRuck packs, and will be getting more as needed for other equipment needing a grab handle.
Hugh Donohue (verified owner) –
This is my third one purchased for pack handling in overhead bins and moving my pack to hang storage (I haven’t yet done a GoRuck activity yet … despite owning 3 packs! ). High quality product, very durable against abrasion and other stressing. May be buying more for other packs and equipment needing a grab handle.
Chris F (verified owner) –
Great product as advertised. Stitching and materials seem to be tough and ready to hold up to abuse.
Ben Louie (verified owner) –
I use my Rush 24 for travel and realized I needed side carry handles. Went nuts looking for secure solution since my pack is packed full. Bought my first one and it works like a charm! Getting my second one soon for both sides!
Shad Sutliff (verified owner) –
Well made, works great and excellent customer service.
Rob H. (verified owner) –
This is really quite slick. I attached it to the back of my GR1 with two carabiners. Fits great, feels good, does its job. A lot better than having to send my bag in to have it modified.
Angela Adams (verified owner) –
Ordered the red strap to add to my GR1 and it matched perfectly. This handle is very well made and relatively simple to install using two carabiners to attach it to the front molle. The product passed the Badass Babes Light with flying colors after a few adjustments to position it how I prefer. Great product Brian, keep it up!
Richard T (verified owner) –
Bought this to put on the bottom of a 5.11 Rush 24. Well made and comfortable.
John E. (verified owner) –
I bought this handle and it works great. I wanted a handle on my GR1 and this fits the bill perfectly. I planned on sending the ruck in to SCARS but now I can can continue ruck without a 4-8 week delay. THANKS!
Chris (verified owner) –
The padded handle works great. I use it for ruck fit and it makes a big difference. The video on how to place it on my bag was very helpful. Wish they sold the carabiners in the store I would have bought those as well.
Chad (verified owner) –
Awesome gear
What are you waiting for? (verified owner) –
Look no further : Highest quality product, highest quality customer service.
Vincent Levy (verified owner) –
I bought this for my American made GR1. It’s just as tough and looks great! Overhead presses are much easier with this add on!!
Of course the hand written thank you card is a classy touch!
Jonathan Horn (verified owner) –
I bought this to add to the bottom of my 5.11 Rush12 I use for rucking as a pre-emptive modification to when I start doing PT along with it. I tried a few different ways of connecting it, and once I found a way I preferred, this thing is on there tight. It’s well made, solid, and was a great addition to my bag. I spent a lot of time trying to find one of these, and this one is the perfect choice!
Jeff (verified owner) –
Great addtion to my 20L Rucker. Makes the workouts easier to manage.
Thanks, Brian!
All the best,
Jeff
Chance Blasdel (verified owner) –
Purchased the OD Green version for my black GR1. Makes for a good contrast without being too bright, the combo dampens the .Mil look a little for EDC but still low-profile enough for duty use when needed. Works great for ruck PT, securing a jacket to the outside, or just an extra handle to grab my ruck out of the truck. Great product, and will buy a couple more for issued gear!
Joshua Mietz (verified owner) –
This is a nice way to add another handle to your ruck without sending it in. I mounted mine on the bottom of my GR1 using some 550. It has a little more give than I’d prefer but it works for military presses and carrying your ruck overhead. Just be sure of your knot work. ;-)
Alex Saltalamacchia (verified owner) –
GREAT product and EVEN BETTER customer service! In a world like ours, It’s not often your expectations get exceeded but every aspect of the purchase right up to receiving a hand written note thanking me did just that. Thank you so much to BRIAN and his TEAM! Keep up the excellent work!

This is an awesome ruck handle that came in handy during GoRuck events. I also tried throwing it on my plate carrier and it works just as well. Works well attached with D-ring or a carabiner.
Alexander Jakstys (verified owner) –
This handle works perfect on the front of my Rucker 25L. Attached with 2 carabiners it is very secure (albeit difficult to get connected properly). Definitely would recommend.
Kevin Kumlin (verified owner) –
Great product. The carry handle hooked quickly to the front of my ruck with a couple of carabiners. It makes life a little easier to have the extra handle for grabbing a full ruck.
Ldflint (verified owner) –
This is very quality made! Love it!
Stephen Beam (verified owner) –
Very well made and simple to install. I used two carabiners to attach it to a Camelbak Hawg pack. The product passed my field test with flying colors. Great product Brian!
Riley Nadoroznick (verified owner) –
Great quality!
Mike S (verified owner) –
A must addition for any rucksack! Attach with a couple 3″ carabiners to the bottom of your ruck and you are set. Not to mention, like my GR1, this handle is build like a tank.
James Panteleone (verified owner) –
I have a 2yo Rucker 2.0 before the bottom handle, this handle has solved the awkwardness of a 30lb plate in the ruck.
A. Lockett (verified owner) –
Handy addition when performing workouts. Aesthetically it’ll make any rucksack more your own and unique. Also, Brian’s customer service can’t be matched. Get one for yourself and support ADR!
Max F (verified owner) –
I was skeptical about how much one handle could help. But when you are doing overhead squats at 4am, it is the best luxury you can have. Get one, you won’t be disappointed.
Cromwell Estrada (verified owner) –
Very good quality and is a great idea for my GR1.
Jody Daniels (verified owner) –
Great material and well-built. Matches perfectly to the color of my ruck.
[email protected] (verified owner) –
So many colors to choose from, you’ll have no problem matching your ruck. The handle makes it so much easier to hold and move your ruck, no matter what the situation. I love my ADR handle!
[email protected] (verified owner) –
These are great straps. Heavy duty stitching and nice padding. A couple of screw-type carabiners, and mine was attached to the bottom of my ruck. I’d definitely buy again.
Chance Cooper (verified owner) –
Works great. The coyote matched my coyote ruck perfectly. Having another grab point is awesome. The GR1 is already awesome and this makes it better.

This has been a great addition to my ruck. Feels sturdy. Looking forward to putting it through the Philly HTL!

You can use these as a side handle on a Maxpedition Falcon II even though the MOLLE is in the wrong direction. https://imgur.com/a/F2la57V Super nice handle from a tough material with plenty of padding.

Great customer service and quick shipping on the handle. Attached it to my GR1 with two carabiners and it looks and works great. Color and styling match well with the ruck. Definitely will be purchasing from ADR again.
Jjgalvez (verified owner) –
100% love this carry handle. A few days ago I started noticing how very quickly I got used to using both handles to move the ruck since it is so much easier. I tried doing some ruck swings both using just the top handle and using both and it definitely helps to have two handles. I’ll be doing my first Light event next weekend, I’m sure it will be very useful!
Cody Chrisman (verified owner) –
Durable and great build quality.
rmc0109 (verified owner) –
Great addition to any ruck weather it’s for EDC or an event.
JonnyMayne (verified owner) –
Sturdy, affordable and fast shipping together with a hand written thank-you note – what’s not to love. The MC padded handle matches perfectly with my MC GR1. Great addition for grabbing the pack quickly and awesome to have another hand-hold for when you lose strap privileges.
KARL E (verified owner) –
I ordered 2, one for my wife’s GR1 and one for my Rucker. These are awesome. The quality is superb, and the function is great. Having a second strap to work the ruck makes keeping a grip on both ends of the pack during workouts much easier, keeping the ruck in hand and under control.
jonathanpettus (verified owner) –
Super impressed with the padded handle and how quickly it arrived. Took me a few tries to find just the right carabiner placement in order to have the handle tighter to my ruck, but I’m ready to rock and sure it’ll come in handy during my tough in a few weeks.
rmc0109 (verified owner) –
Great addition to a ruck for both training and EDC.
Biroliem (verified owner) –
I ordered this in preparation for my first GoRuck event. Although not required, I saw people say they’d highly recommend it. With a quick turn around, and a handwritten note, I received my strap. I’ve added it to my ruck and the colors look spot on. I’m thrilled to have this addition to my ruck.
Andy K (verified owner) –
Did my first Goruck event without having this added handle on my bag and never made that same mistake. Found this site and the handles they sold. Excellent quality and looks as though it came with my bag. I will definitely be ordering from this company again. Thank you very much. Keep up the excellent work!
Paul (verified owner) –
Great experience purchasing through ADR. Really quick turn around time and the handle looks great and works great too. Would definitely recommend Brian and team.
Ernest (verified owner) –
Like another reviewer posted here, I don’t use my handle the way it was intended. I bought this handle specifically to sew directly onto my Bullet. The Gen 2 GoRuck Bullet had the lame webbing handle like you see on any other typical backpack out there. While the location is great for hanging on hooks, I’m not a big fan of it.
So when GoRuck released the version 3 Bullet, I saw that they finally implemented the padded handle that you see on virtually all their other packs. They did say that customizing will eventually be an option, but who knows how long that’ll take! So I bought this handle, cut the loops at the ends, and sewed the handle directly onto the Bullet. What a difference it made in the overall look of the bag!
I’m sure there are people who don’t mind, but for me, I like to have a sturdier and more ergonomic handle to grab the pack by, whenever I need to. And for how much the padded handle cost, along with a little bit of time sewing, I’d say the purchase was definitely worth it. The handle is very well made, and goes very well with the look of the packs.
PS- For those wondering what I did, and how I did it, I cut the loops at both sides (underside so I could get the maximum amount of usable webbing. I went on amazon and purchased nylon sewing thread, along with a speedy stitcher. I measured out where I wanted the handle to sit at the top of the pack, and gave a little wiggle room for the handle to naturally lift up for easier access. If the handle is too flat, then it won’t be as easy to grab onto. Once I did so, I folded the webbing underneath itself and secured the handle using a “Box X” stitch.

Great to have during events!!!

This is my second Ruck handle. I think this was one of the best Ruck accessories I’ve ever purchased. They are extremely multi functional. Whether your in an awful 2 hour Welcome Party with a lot of overhead movements, to grabbing your Ruck on the fly it comes in handy. I recommended it to several guys in my F3 Pax and they bought some as well.
Joshua Stacey (verified owner) –
I ordered a black standard padded for my Rucker, and received it within a week. I am impressed with the quality of construction, and the color matches perfectly. This makes overhead presses much easier, as well as just handling a heavy ruck in general. This is well worth the money.
Neil Christie (verified owner) –
Just as awesome as I expected. Can’t wait to use it
seanmactavish (verified owner) –
Nice product, well made. It is everything you would expect and then some. Makes using the ruck for workouts easier.

Ryan (verified owner) –
This is a fantastic, durable addition to my ruck and the color and material integrate so well that it looks like an OEM accessory. Strong, durable, does what it says on the tin. Excellent value, thanks for all you do!
Pdelacruz (verified owner) –
This handle is a very well designed and constructed add on to my Rucker 2.0. Though I didn’t use it as much during my first Light this past Memorial Day as I thought I would, it has come in very handy during training sessions as an extra grab point, particularly during pushups and drags. Thanks Brian and All Day Ruckoff for another high quality product!
Matt S. (verified owner) –
Bought my first padded handle for my GR1, got my second for my GR2. Work great for off strap workouts and rucks. Easy to carry 50+ lbs for 800m-1 mile when used with the top handle on my rucks. Also makes grabbing the rucks out of a trunk a lot easier. The loops on the ends are big enough to use with every carabiner I’ve tried. Padding does not wear much, if at all over time.
Adam (verified owner) –
Love this, great addition to my ruck.
dvdgmpat (verified owner) –
I have one of these ruck handles (the black/multicam) on my Rucker, and took it on my first GR event; received a lot of comments (I told them I got it from ADR), and many grabs on it as we humped along. Excellent additional handle for your ruck.
Tom L. (verified owner) –
I have one of these handles on each of my Go Ruck packs. They work great. I would recommend one option and that is hook Velcro option on the outside handle for those of us who may want to attach an Army name tape to the handle to ID our packs.
Thanks

Cant go wrong. Stable padded grab handle. Use them on both my packs

Nice accessory, makes it easier to move the bag with weights in it and is handy for using the bag as exercise equipment for the upper body.
Eric (verified owner) –
The handle was super easy to attach and it was definitely nice having an extra handle to hold on to while doing different exercises during my event!
Dewy (verified owner) –
This is my second handle from ADR. First one was the standard, no padding, love the thing but I wrapped it in paracord to beef it up. This 2nd one with the padding is AMAZING.. I got it to match my Multicam event ruck and it’s spot on and feels great. Always a high value purchase from ADR and it keeps me coming back.
Casey (verified owner) –
This is the third handle I’ve ordered. Never disappointed. The RG handle is spot on.
nrward0611 (verified owner) –
As I start my training for my first GoRuck Tough this handle is going to come in very hand. Solid construction and very easy to install (thanks to a corresponding YouTube video). I’m excited to see how this impacts during the event.
timfridsma (verified owner) –
This was a lifesaver when we did overhead presses at the recent Ruck Club Battle! Plus the Typhoon color is a near perfect match for the Steel Rucker.
Brenden (verified owner) –
It’s a pretty simple, sturdy item; I attached it using climbing carabiners. It works as advertised.
A.spencer2@ (verified owner) –
I haven’t attached the handle to my ruck yet, but it looks and feels great, and I thought it was super awesome that I got some stickers and stuff it also a handwritten note thanking me for my business. I thought was pretty awesome, not many places take time to actually write you a note like that. Thank you!!

This handle is great! Its low profile, comfortable, and sturdy.

Just got the strap in today, definitely looks like something Goruck would have on their site, great quality, can’t wait to put it under stress on my next Goruck challenge.
Chad (verified owner) –
Purchased recently for my new GR Rucker. Easy to install, as long as you take your time getting your carabineers sorted going through the MOLLE. Provides a good solid additional handle. Haven’t used it in an event yet, but it’s performed flawlessly so far in my training for an upcoming Heavy.
NIKI TEJADA (verified owner) –
Love my blue line carry handle. Put it on my black GR2 which I frequently travel with. Makes it a lot easier to grab and move my pack and adds a little color. Plus I love that ADR gives to charity. Thank you from a greatful LEO

This is a great addition to the ruck. It is made of the same strong material. Thanks alldayruckoff!
Qaysi (verified owner) –
EXELLENT piece of equipment, I attached it to my GR2 for 2 reasons: (1) the handle makes it great when I’m on the move since i travel allot mostly around Africa and and (2) I ended up using it for exercise (kinda like a sandbag). in short, I love this handle and have preached about to all my guys!
Bryon Wheaton (verified owner) –
Fantastic Product. Well constructed, and comfortable. This is your #1 option for adding additional grab spots to your ruck.

Works awesome, extra handle for the ruck: easier to carry around.
Feels sturdy even if it’s padded. Really good quality
F3Abu (verified owner) –
Exactly what I was looking for! High quality material, perfect fit with my GR Rucker, and looks awesome. Will be ordering from ADR again. Thanks Brian!
Cemorrell (verified owner) –
Easy to use, just slap a couple carabiners on it and run it through the MOLLE on your ruck. High quality and useful.
Matt (verified owner) –
The black matches perfectly, easy to install, and high quality handle. Game changer for adding another solid grab point to your ruck for training & events.
DJ (verified owner) –
The handle is extremely high quality. I ordered three, one for the front of my bag and one for each shoulder strap so I can pull some weight off my shoulders. I used them for my first challenge and they made it much more tolerable. The camo pattern is pretty sweet too.
I was most impressed with shipping. WA-IN in two days. I needed them quick and they came in just in time. Great vendor. Thanks again.
Nathan Patterson (verified owner) –
Very handy while exercising and it matches my hat. The handles is very sturdy when secured with carabiners.
JQ (verified owner) –
Such a genius idea!
I have a Bullet that I use for training and traveling. One huge weak point on the Bullet is the flimsily handle on top. But this handle allows for easy grabbing, whether traveling or hauling your ruck above your head.
I know it’s standard to attach the handle with carabiners, but I attached mine with grimlock (also purchased from ADR) and haven’t had a problem yet.
This thing is high quality and built to last. ADR has awesome customer service and since I bought a blue line handle, not only am I supporting an awesome company, but I’m also supporting charity.
ADR has high quality products and cares about their customers. You will not regret this purchase.
Ahanu (verified owner) –
As a new rucker (with a Rucker), I don’t anticipate ever having a ruck without one of these on it.
Adding this grip option makes the ruck a more versatile exercise tool, piece of ‘luggage’, teamwork touch/grab point, etc.
Ethan Kruger (verified owner) –
Fits my Goruck Rucker perfectly and works great!
Hugh (verified owner) –
Bought a second one for a second pack, see my previous review of August 16, 2017. At this rate I will be getting one for most all of my packs!
daaray (verified owner) –
Great handle. Handwritten note was a nice touch! Can’t with overhead presses now that the ruck won’t smash my skull in (as easily as before).
JonnyMayne (verified owner) –
Very fast and affordable international (Canada) shipping for this easy to use handle makes it a great addition to my GR1. Solid construction and the coyote colour matches the molle on my sand 26L GR1 very well. Easy to add a second handle to my ruck with two Black Diamond oval carabiners. I also have the orange reflective handle – two is one and one is none. The handwritten thank you note from Brian & sticker that accompanied my order was a great personal touch that makes me feel values as a customer. This site is awesome and I visit it often to read the reviews and keep an eye for new products. Keep up the great work.

I attached the padded handle to my Goruck Rucker and it works just as expected. The material is very durable and the design fits right in with the simple design of the Rucker.
JoeLopez (verified owner) –
This is a very well made, high quality item. I bought this handle for my Goruck GR1, it looks like it came with the bag. I would easily recommend this product and company to anyone looking for similar items. Customer service and shipping were first class as well. Thank you.
Joe (verified owner) –
Ordered two of the new padded colors (Red and Blue) for our GORUCK 9/11 Light event here in PDX. They represented the “thin red line” and “thin blue line” perfectly and functioned flawlessly! Used for maintaining the “one arms length” which is better than trying to just grab on to MOLLE. As always, excellent customer service! Thanks! J & A
Jason Beatty (verified owner) –
I order the “Ruck Carry Handle ” at the last minute for my first GORUCK event (9/11 Tough in Santa Cruz). The handle arrived in time for my event (fast shipping!) and worked well. Was really nice to have for PT (overhead presses etc.) and made it easy to find my ruck when I was crawling out of the ocean :)
Hugh (verified owner) –
Excellent accessory for any MOLLE – equipped pack. It allow easier lifting of the pack when getting ready to ruck.
Anthony Smith (verified owner) –
Very well made. Appears to be of the same quality as the ruck itself. I don’t have extensive use with but I can say that it makes over head exercises easier. Another must have for rucking PT.
gbreslin (verified owner) –
I ordered 2 black padded handles for a project, one will be sewn onto my V1 10L Bullet as a proper carry handle and the other will be mounted to the bottom of my GR2 for easy stowing while traveling. They are perfect for these purposes and if I could add a picture of the finished product, I would!
Sam (verified owner) –
I wanted to wait to do this review til after I had completed a challenge with it. The July 4th Light (on the first) was the break in challenge for both the handle and myself. I felt like I went through the wringer and came out the other side motivated to push myself even harder. The handle handled pretty well but only really got used once right at the end for a few overhead presses. I can only guess that if we had lost strap privileges or similar, I would have been very grateful to have this around.
Better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it in this case.
Rod Pelletier (verified owner) –
Well-crafted and does what it’s supposed to do – I ordered the coyote. It does not, however, exactly match the material of my coyote rucker.

PauleyV (verified owner) –
Was looking around for something to put on my ruck after reading several articles about how a handle could help for GoRuck events and generally using the handle for things like curls, overhead presses, etc. Found this site and was impressed with the reviews and products. Ordered 1 of these for each of 4 packs in my family (so each review will be the same). I have used the one on my ruck with 50# for a few WOD’s and they are easy to grab and definitely help handle the ruck for various exercises. They look sharp too and compliment the ruck. Be sure to have good carabiners of course. Recommend these if you need a handle. As for the ones that were reflective, they are very nice too and streamline the look of the bag (if that’s important) compared to the general reflective bands we usually use, while providing that protection of being visible!
medic1884 (verified owner) –
In a nutshell, buy one you won’t be disappointed. My order arrived lighting fast and all the way to the East Coast. The handle is well made with just the right amount of padding. I attached it to my GORUCK Rucker via the suggested 2 carabiner method and it’s not going anywhere. I’m very happy that I found this website, the products are invaluable during training and events.
Hawaiival13 (verified owner) –
Awesome product!! Loved that it is padded. It worked well for my Light event as well as a Tough. The shipping was awesome as it came in a few days. This handle is sturdy, comfortable and does what it is intended. Great product!!

Great product! Goes nicely with my Coyote GR1. I have used it to load / unload, in and out of my car.
JouWen (verified owner) –
It looks much bigger in your picture comparing to the real actual one I receive.
This is a very well made handle with good padding and reassuring stitching. The nylon & craftsmanship make it feel solid just like the quality of my Goruck GR1, GR0. Good accessories to add on to them to serve as an additional handle when needed.
Matt (verified owner) –
I like it a lot. I bought the red one because it matches my girl’s American GR1. The cool thing is when I put it on my black GR1, it’s a ton easier to find my ruck in the pIle. Red on black looks good too.

Now that Brian and I are potential BFFL, I can confidently say this strap is what you’re looking for
High quality, low cost.
Jared (verified owner) –
I wasn’t sure how I would like these when I ordered them. They replaced a handle I had made out of PVC pipe and 550 cord. My homemade handle was heavy and bulky, but had lasted through a couple GORUCK events and lots of training. When I got these, they were lightweight and low profile. Much better than what I had. Although I haven’t used one in an event yet, I have been training with them and really like them. Several people have asked where I got it and are planning to order their own.
nipbipzip (verified owner) –
The perfect solution for all those presses during a GORUCK smoke session! I wish I had known about these handles before I attempted Selection last year. My hand kept slipping during presses and holds over our heads. If that handle had been there, it would have been no problem and the cadre could have yelled at me about something else. I’m already training with it and it is holding up great. Feels good on the hand and doesn’t move around. You can’t go wrong with this.
Matthew (verified owner) –
Excellent design and functions perfectly. I have only used it in training but I have no doubt that it will be effective in events.

Well made and looks great on my pack. Just removing my pack from the trunk has become easier.

Handle worked perfectly. I attached it with 2 1/8 inch chain quick link to the molle on my pack. It was a great addition
Drew Holmes (verified owner) –
what a basic idea done well. Easy fix to the ” how do I hold my ruck over my head?” I have found when I travel for work taking the ruck as an EDC is smart because you can fill it with sandbags, books whatever when you get there and have instant gym. Nice add for the basic set up. Well built handles.

Got this for my GR1 and love it. I will be ordering one for my GR2 as well – and any other GORUCK back I may get. Thanks for the great product!

Must have. Makes all the difference if you have to be arms-length in formation. Or if you’re holding your ruck overhead. Or even just throwing it in and out of the car. I talk these up to every rucker I know. I think the “padded” is well worth it.

I love the versatility the handle adds to my GR1. Gives me options of different ways to carry my pack and easier to pick up off the ground with weight in it. Attaches very easy with 2 caribiners and is very sturdy.

Attached my handle (red) to my GR1 with 2 carabiners for my first Goruck event. I didn’t use it as much as I thought I would, but it is very well constructed. It also made my GR1 easy to identify, which is great when you’re in a hurry!

I could not be more pleased with the handle. The red looks great on my Black GR1 and the fit is fantastic, as it lays flat when not in use. Construction quality is solid. I am going to but another one in Black. I was also very impressed with the Customer Service and fast shipping! Thanks, ADR!

Great product and great company! I have been using during training as well as business travel on my GR0. Perfect!

I got one of these for my GR1. When it came in, I realized it would fit perfectly on my Maxpedition Colossus using two Grimlock carabiners. It fit like it was made for it. It made the perfect carry handle! Now I’ve got to get another one! I’ve already thought of some other uses. Sooner or later, one will eventually make to the ruck. Good quality, a thousand possibilities. Get some.

Functional, durable, and looks great! Thanks

Something I didn’t realize I needed until I had it, and now I don’t want to ruck without it. The red handle helps my black GR1 stand out from all the others.

I use one of these on my pack and love it. I recently decided to make a team weight for a GORUCK Heavy and attached a pair of these to the weight to help make carrying it more manageable. Not only are the handle strong, but they’re quite comfortable to hold. Carrying 50+ pounds for 24 hours was made a whole lot easier and tolerable directly because of these.
I already have a few ideas for how I’ll be adding these to some other items that I frequently carry or need to hold on to!

Gives a great dimension to my pack. Glad to have it.

After I got one, I had to get handles for all my rucks. They’re invaluable, and not just during events.
Richard E. (verified owner) –
I was looking for something like this for some time. Its excellent. Shipping was incredibly fast!

sometimes you don’t know you needed something until you have it. These handles make PT with your ruck during an event easier. My wife and I have multiples. Hers are padded, mine are plain. Love these things

Rock solid durability, gives great leverage and something to hang on to when picking my ruck up or hoisting it over my head etc. Definitely a must-have ruck add-on.

The handle feels very sturdy and the material looks and feels good (good padding on the handle). In some lights it looks a tad less darker black color than my GR1, but for most part looks right at home on there and functionally it is great.

I used it in the Mogadishu Mile. It was helpful.
Andrew R. (verified owner) –
If you have done a challenge, then you know how useful this handle just might be for overhead presses. Picked up two, one Coyote to match my GR1 and one reflective for events. Thanks ADR.

Nice site and the gear I bought is high quality

This will surely work great. Hooked to the bottom of my ruck with two carabiners. Thanks, g
