This GR1 is built out of 420D ROBIC® Ripstop Nylon. What that means for performance is that it's super water-resistant and ultra-lightweight. The ripstop grid pattern increases tear strength for an overall better strength-to-weight ratio and it's got a special waterproof coating that's designed to last longer than traditional PU.

GR1 ORIGINS
Baghdad x NYC
I was living on my buddy’s couch in NYC with all my deployment gear, trying to figure out how to transition from the military world I missed to the civilian world I was in. I poured my heart into what became GR1 because it felt like I was building a bridge I desperately needed to cross in my life. To honor my roots but still look forward.
