Customer Reviews
Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 70 reviews.
I love the idea of Rucking as it makes complete sense to me at my age of 61. I have trained hard all my life including running marathons but these days I enjoy the simpler things such as daily 5K walks with my 2 dogs. The well constructed backpack and flat weight system makes this so much easier than a normal loaded up back pack. Personally I find the 10kg weight very manageable and prefer to load up on my hips more than the shoulders. I've noticed on my fitness tracker a good increase in heart rate and effortlessly lost 2kg in useless body fat over the last 3 week. Highly recommended Clive in Sydney Australia
My first Ruckaway plate (10kg). Looks and quality are great, much better than the Amazon cheapos!!!
Why did it take me so long - great way to exercise!?
Amazing first ruck Weather was terrible but got on the treadmill and had a great time Great equipment quality
I rucked with with the 15kg with the backpack up high, no waist belt. I felt it between my shoulder blades, my traps and back of my neck. Great for posture and work some muscles that don’t get much work on my usual walks. Great backpack, very well made, totally recommended to add some upper body stimulus to your walks.
The pack fits well and is super comfortable. I took it along with the 5kg weight and a water bottle on a 13 km hike with friends around the "Nil Desperandum and Boundary Loop" in the ACT. The pack was comfortable and good practice as it's about the same weight and size as I'll be carrying on my next Camino (Camino Sanabrés) in Spain in September/October 2026. I was able to put the water bottle (along with two dog-clips to hold it in place) in the second (unused) 'removable weight' pocket. This arrangement worked well for me, but maybe you could consider adding either one, or two external side pockets for water bottles, etc., similar to regular packs.
Love it! Perfect size for my pack.
Super compact and dense to allow for combining with higher weights to incrementally increase total mass. Strongly recommended for levelling up
Outstanding Quality and Perfect Fit! The 10 kg Ruckaway Rucking Weights are exceptional — beautifully made, precise in weight, and a perfect fit for the Ruckaway backpack. The build quality is top-tier, with no rough edges or rattling once loaded. It feels solid, balanced, and clearly designed by people who understand real-world use. Customer service was also outstanding — friendly, responsive, and genuinely committed to making sure everything was right. Couldn’t be happier — highly recommend!
Great weight and solid construction. It's a pretty large weight and pairs well with the bag.
Hike up Mt Coot-tha, very comfortable back pack with the 15kg weight inside.
Nice weight to go into your rucking pack. Quality seems high and easy to pick up due to the hand holds. I actually use this as a free weight for at home work outs too!
Perfect.
Perfect.
I’m really happy with the purchase. The weight plate is well made and easy to manner due to the handles designed into the plate. The pack itself is excellent. The quality is outstanding and the canvas and zippers very heavy duty. I’m not the tallest and I found the pack comfortable to wear with the plate installed. I haven’t used the bladder yet but I guess it’s pretty standard for a bladder. Overall I’m very happy with the purchase and I would recommend it.
Haven’t actually used this one yet - will add it after another couple of walks, but the weights a easy to handle and fit the pack well
Fit nicely into the pack
Easy to use weights, sit comfortably on your back inside the pack
The weight fits well into the pocket in the backpack. It doesn't move around while walking, keeping it secure in the pack.
Works as advertised
Extremely happy with this item, the quality of the items is outstanding and easy to use, adjust and clean. Have tried plenty of products in the past over the years and none have been as fit for purpose. Highly recommend to anyone who is looking for this type of equipment.
Not only do I use the plates in the official ruck pack, I also slip these 5kg plates into my work bag to sneak in extra ruck time commuting to and from work via the train/walking.
Very well constructed backpack and weight plate. I am always looking for ways to tack on a quick ruck in between or during other activities, and this pack has the build quality and smarts to allow that. One check on my enthusiasm recently occurred when I went to file some papers at a Tribunal. The security guards at the entrance security scanner were equally curious and amazed at the rig, but I did have to check in the weight plate before heading in! Thanks to the Ruckaway team for their care and attention.
Excellent product
Item is exactly as described. A good product. Prompt delivery. Thanks for your help.
Good quality.
10kg weight goes as one with the back back. Great weight for light days and the wife
Fits in the ruckaway pack really well
Weights are great, work well in the bag and love that they can be used as training weights aswell
good for multi use workouts, not just the Ruckaway pack.
A good addition to a weight combination
Excellent setup for prepartion for upcoming multi day hiking trips
compact and fits perfectly with the backpack
Quick delivery. Great service. Good quality.
15KG plate as described. Fits perfectly within the Ruckaway bag.
After consuming a lot of the information referenced on the Ruckaway website/socials, I ultimately decided to invest the money in a proper bag. The backpack itself has been a game changer for me so far. I had previously been utilising just a regular backpack with some dumbbells inside to provide some resistance while walking but it wasn’t until I put on the ruckaway bag that I could fully appreciate and understand the advantage of a purpose built/designed rucking bag. Obviously the fact that the weights have been specifically designed to sit comfortably within the bag is a major advantage but having the load evenly distributed across the straps and sitting higher on your back makes the entire experience much more comfortable and really takes the heat off your joints and lower back. Will definitely be recommending the Ruckaway backpack and weights to family and friends.
adding the ruck and weight has added a new level of intensity
The rucking weight distributes the load exceptionally well over your back which provides a high level of stability & comfort.
Much better than the small individual weights I used to use.
