The Ruck Plate Carrier™ is your ultimate companion for a superior rucking experience. Designed to securely hold your Ruck Plates®, this carrier sits high and tight on your back, allowing you to breathe better and push harder without feeling restricted by your gear. Crafted from 210D High Tenacity CORDURA® fabric, it’s gentle on the skin, preventing friction burns and irritation even when worn shirtless. The ergonomic design features 10mm of EVA foam padding at the lower back, supporting your spine’s natural curve and reducing strain during heavy lifting. Padded shoulder straps ensure even weight distribution, making it comfortable to carry heavier loads. The top lid is reinforced with thick padding to protect you during dynamic movements like bear crawls and burpees. It also keeps your chest open for better breathability and proper form during exercises.

The bottom panel, made from 1050D Ballistic CORDURA®, offers superior durability against wear and tear. Plus, the RPC does not feature spacer mesh so it does not retain odours and is easy to clean.

Designed for serious workouts, the Ruck Plate Carrier™ is the perfect mix of comfort, durability, and ease of use, helping you push your limits and stay focused on your routine.

Note: The Ruck Plate® is sold separately.

GORUCK was founded in 2008 by Jason, a Special Forces operative, and Emily, a CIA officer from her home in war-torn West Africa. Their goal was to simply create a durable rucksack that could withstand extreme conditions and excel in places like Baghdad, New York City, and Côte d’Ivoire. They also aimed to help people from all walks of life navigate challenging environments and embrace a life full of adventure. Today, GORUCK revolutionises the fitness category of rucking- a low-impact exercise that involves walking with a weighted rucksack- by providing top-quality, durable, and highly functional rucking gear. The brand also fosters a supportive community through training, events, and GORUCK Clubs, all aimed at empowering individuals and supporting a cause greater than themselves.
