THE WORLD'S MOST COMFORTABLE WEIGHTED VEST
RUKVEST
Pairs well with
Experience a new level of comfort and functionality with our RUKVEST, designed unlike any weighted product you've encountered before. Utilising innovative weighted gel technology, the vest incorporates a unique iron sand (granular iron) and gel compound that forms its core weight. This cutting-edge design ensures that the vest moulds to your body while providing a balanced distribution of weight. Encased in high-quality lycra, the RUKVEST not only offers durability but also allows for easy maintenance.
How heavy should I go?
We recommend that those new to rucking aim to carry between 5% (if you've been sedentary) and 10% (if you are already training) of their current body weight to start. You can make a light ruck harder but you can’t make a heavy ruck easier. We would rather you kept up with the exercise than give up because it is too hard. Remember, you can always upgrade the weight once you build your strength via our trade up scheme.
