I would like to add that for the Heritage edition the 21L and 26L come with the new quick access pocket. On the first run it was only the 26L. I think that take the bag to another level for me as a fan of the original GR1, I really miss having a quick access pocket
Suggestion for you when you’re looking for a word to describe your introduction to various bags: Preview. That will differentiate a video that you don’t label as a review. I’m a Goruck fan so I very much enjoyed this preview video. Among my Gorucks I have a Huckberry slick 500D 21L for some EDC, and I really do like the fabric. I have a Heritage 26L on the way so I was very keen to hear your thoughts on it. Generally, I do not like leather accents but the waxed canvas, old school fabric lends itself to the retro use of leather. Thanks for this video of two bags so well displayed and described. I’m looking forward to your next project.
I'm still rocking my gr1 1000D slick from back in the day. I gave my floppy SD25 to my kid for school. Might have to pick up one of these for the office.
Really appreciate the review. Your the first one who hasn’t RAVED about the quick access pocket up top. It didn’t look that big to begin with to me. Other reviewers rant and rave how awesome it is. I’m waiting for the gr2 26L to drop again.
Thanks George! After seeing some Redditors mention holes in their heritage I’ve been wondering if my preorder is a mistake. But your endorsement calms my nerves. I’m intrigued with the canvas and all your reviews on the other bags I’ve had have been spot on. I do wish green wasn’t the only color way to get USA made YKK zippers on a GR bag but oh well.
Help! Im having such a hard time deciding between 26l GR1 Heritage and a regular GR1. I think the heritage version looks super sexy with its minimalistic front and waxed canvas but i just don't know if it's going to be a lot of maintenance (waxing) and maybe as durable for travelling the world...
George- check out the Billykirk No. 297 Standard Edition backpack. Waxed canvas, sweet bag..and they nailed front pocket utility on more of a heritage style bag.
@@GeorgeDEFINED My Latest Pack might be small for you... I have the Mystery Ranch Gallagator, ever try to consider on reviewing a Small Backpack. It's relatively cheap for a 19L Backpack...

As always, another great video!! Just purchased the GR1 1000D..Can't wait!!
Is that in US dollars
@ 9:18 that laugh/chuckle is why I subscribe.
Good video, man. I just got the heritage gr1 after having the bullet Rucker and the plate carrier. Really high quality materials on the heritage

Love the Goruck stuff didn't know about these thanks for the heads up.

If it was available all of the time, you know I'd get it eventually.
Another great review George. Really enjoy these. BTW, any comments on the Black Embers products? Thanks.
Never handled them so I can't make a judgement..
Great review as always and it confirmed to me my opinion on goruck bags
I have the 21L n 26L Huckberry Slick..and they are awesome EDC packs. 👌
I was debating between the 21L and the 26L, but when in doubt... 26 it is, and I do like to travel. Thanks man.
I’m a fan of the waxed canvas looks clean.
HB 1000D Slick = luv
I missed out on the signup. My wife thinks I have too many backpacks already. Sad. So sad. It's ok, I already have two Gorucks.
I agree with your wife lol my hubby has too many too!
You should review the new Nike elite hoops backpack , it’s so dope
Love my Dark Oak Heritage ;)
10oz canvas? That sucks! 😂 Saddleback Leather waxed canvas is 24oz!
Nice George, love my black 26L GR1 and My MC 26L GR1, looking for a 26L GR1 Heritage waxed Canvas in Olive green
What are the key differences/pros and cons of the 500D and 1000D?
You know I’m gonna like this review haha.

yo george, where the Kaidan Set or Dyneema Bullet at :P
Whis I could get the slick one not looking to be tacticool with all the molle on the outside
It will be back
Their biggest mistake, putting garbage molle on everything.
Why doesn't Goruck want me to carry a water bottle?
I don't know?? Great question
Early bird gets the worm! Great review 🤙🏼
George- check out the Billykirk

How is the weight George? Is the canvas one significantly heavier?
It is a very heavy bag. I have a love hate relationship with this bag
Have you seen the new LBT 22 liter daypack?
Yes I saw it.. it's okay
Have you ever looked at Waterfield bags?
I have.. great quality.. hope to review them in the future
@@GeorgeDEFINED would be a great idea for a video. Looking into purchasing one soon
Did you ever try out the Dynema GR1 Colab bag?
Nope.. never did..one might float my way one day..
@@GeorgeDEFINED Float as in a floater?
Have you done ILE yet?...
Not yet..

Just bought a 26L in Dark Oak for around 375 do you think I can use it for nursing school!
They're nice but the price keeps me from them. Honestly, I'll probably just get a pack from Recycled Firefighter
Great review. Not a fan of that front pouch.
