The combination of fibers, reinforcements, and laminates added to this fabric make it ULTRA high strength, ULTRA waterproof, ULTRA lightweight, and ULTRA awesome.

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.
