Waxed Duck Canvas GR2

We built GR2 to be the ultimate travel ruck, and it has now been met with our time proven heavy canvas construction.

For materials, we chose the strongest possible duck canvas with a waxing process proven over the last 170 years, giving the ruck a retro canvas look with all of the organization and durability you would expect from GR2.
