Uncompromising Development

We start with the performance demands, not with what’s already on the shelf. This process takes around 3 years to develop each and every style we build. And when we release it, it’s right.

3X Support

Building shoes that feel “supportive” when you first put them on is easy. But what matters to us is how your feet feel after you’ve been in your shoes all day, for all the miles. 3X Support for all 3 Arches in your foot.

Tested by Elite Athletes & Special Forces Soldiers

The unifying belief amongst all the greats is that your footwear is the most important piece of gear you choose in terms of exceeding the physical demands of your sport. So choose wisely.

Your Feet Need More Support

We live in our boots in Special Forces

Our standard day is all the miles and a full load on our backs and our feet have to perform. More support means more performance, especially when carrying 100lbs in a rucksack. All GORUCK footwear is built to support you through the rigors of traveling, training, and rucking and comes with our Scars Lifetime Guarantee.
