HYPERWEAR Hyper Ruck® 20L Rucking Backpack – Modular Load System, Laptop & Plate Sleeves, Fitness, Hiking & EDC (Empty)

I bought this to replace a regular backpack I was using that couldn't handle the weight I was at.At the time that was 40lbs.Since then I'm now at 50lbs.I do wish it would sit a bit higher on my back. It might be that I just don't know how to adjust it correctly.

Great rucking backpack that you can also use for everyday use. Seems very well made and came with 10# of weight. Pretty comfortable to wear, sits a little low on me, but I'm short and have a small torso - even with adjusting it as short as I can. Very spacious inside, well padded, and well made. Would be perfect if it had a place to store a water bottle, but overall this is a great rucking backpack.

Seller does not honor warranty, Wear and Tear isn’t covered even though this an exercise equipment. This is the Hyperwear product I bought that broke so far.

This backpack is versatile and the ease of swapping out the weighted inserts is a definite plus. However, I found it pretty uncomfortable on the shoulders, which is disappointing for something at this price. It's very expensive, so I expected a bit more comfort. Overall, it does the job, but there's room for improvement in the design.

Item:HYPERWEAR Hyper Ruck: Rucking Backpack - 3 Rucking Plates/Laptop Sleeves - Weight Vest Strength Training Fitness Day Pack, Travel, EDC Bag, Adjustable Flexible Plates Optional (20L, Black) (30 lb, Adjustable 20L, Black, Silver)Pros:-Weights and backpack don't bounce around like a regular backpack. There are lots of straps that prevent this. You can jog with this backpack on if you wanted to.-Backpack is silent while walking. This is important if your walking in areas where you don't want to draw attention to yourself. The back outside pocket, you can throw your keys in there and your keys won't make any noise.-Weights are accurate. I weighed all 3 weights at once on an accurate scale, it weighed 30.4LBS, which they are suppose to weight 30LBS.-Can be used as a regular backpack-The front bottom strap is great (see cons). While your walking, you can take the weight off your shoulders and transfer it to your belly just by shifting around.-Weights plates are adjustable. It has two inch wide pockets that allow you to put whatever you want in it.-Backpack has room for more weight plates. 1 in the front pocket closest to your back, 6 in the main pocket, and 1 on the outside pocket. So 7 or 8 plates in total.-Has good reflectors in front and back so cars can see you.-Stitching is very precise.-Has handles on the sides, bottom, and top. You could use this to do different exercises other than walking/hiking.-Great for dips and pull upsCons:-Con for skinny people. The front bottom strap, you may not be able to take the weight off from your shoulders and transfer it to your belly. The problem is, the strap can only adjust inward so far before it stops. Its not a con for me. I'm 5"8 200LBS and have a decent amount of muscle, so this is not a problem for me. I have the strap adjusted pretty far inward though...Other Thoughts:-Zippers are average-Shoulders pads are average-30LBS is not enough weight for me. I use this for walking and definitely need more weight. I have walked up huge hills up and down. I haven't hiked in this backpack yet... but I'm definitely going to be saying the same thing for hiking.-So the weights that these come with.... each weight has 20 plastic squares inside. Each square has sand in it with glue on the top.-On the bottom of the backpack, the corners are reinforced a little which makes it kind of stiff.

I have tried to adjust the backpack on my three trips so far but cannot find a combo that is comfortable on my neck and shoulders. Pinches into my rotator area and gets to the point that it’s too uncomfortable to continue by 30 minutes. Love the concept, want to go much further but so far its a bust

I have other backpacks about this size, but this has padded sleeves for weights that can also be used for your laptop, tablet, etc. The main compartment in this is larger than my other packs, and there's no outside pouch like other packs have. There's a separate compartment, but it has the same length and width as the main compartment, only smaller.There is also 5 rows of MOLLE straps to attach whatever you want to the outside of the bag.The thing I like the most about this bag is that since it's designed to carry extra weight, the material is thick and very durable.
