Agreed! That sunglasses pouch is awesome.. I love the front top admin pouch also for all my last minute toss in items. You’re right, I think it is one of the most well thought out organizational bags for the price out there. You liking that HAWG more and more I hear??
I’m not sure how it compares to the TB Synapse cause I have never owned one myself, but Google is your friend!
Any website selling the Rush12 should have dimensions posted in the description.Yes sir the HAWG is another good candidate for an awesome edc bag. There’s a lot of good bags out there. In no order the top three edc bags ive ever bought so far: Rush 12, Hawg, GR0

I agree I always loved the GR0 as well… I only wish it had some sort of external compartment for organization like the rush and that Goruck had a better business ethic that I could stand behind :smile_coffee:
Yup I agree and that’s why the rush 12 is a winner. I love that separate admin compartment and still have the 2 zipped pouch in the main compartment. Man you’re making me miss mine!

Well a few years ago I noticed others who used Goruck products were lacking small pouches to organize their smaller EDC items in so I came up with a specific design and used paracord for hang tabs, some heat shrink and paracord for the zipper pulls to match peoples Goruck bags, made them from Cordura and even sewed on a patch of hook and loop for patches.. About a year later after having sold a ton privately through my blog/paypal, noticed that Goruck came out with the EXACT design for double the price I was selling them for. Two of their main designers from the R&D department in Montana (Sam and I forget the other guy) had been following my page for a long time so I know that’s where they saw the attention and the great response the pouches were getting.
I had a discussion with them about it and they denied it. But also had talked to a few other independent designers that had made some products prior to Goruck and they share the same experience (Belts that were designed by Rich at SHPlates had been ripped off and remade, Brute Force design and sold sandbags that are identical to the ones Goruck put out shortly after). Apparently Brute Force met up with Goruck and wanted to make these bags with them that they design and Goruck said no, then came out with their own with the exact same design. Almost all of their patches and shirt designs have appeared on the GR sky mall page from other people and used to sell on their own products at different prices.
Definitely a different company now than when they first started making packs way before their challenge era.
I believe it was psyphris and I that were having this convo.. feel free to add any info I missed. Input is always welcome.
*This is simply to share experiences and not to trash talk the company. I feel it is important to know how companies operate both positively and negatively for others to determine the business they give.
Hey, this is the EDCforums where disparaging comments about business practices are only allowed against Maxped. Business practices by all other companies are perfect :giggle:
Some guys EDC that appaears to be Canadian Forces issued. Top load, sits high on the back with formidable webs at front and sides!
