Description

Probably the most beloved of all Berghaus rucksacks, the Vulcan represents an older military design, simple and robust. An excellent ruck for military use and works equally well in civilian excursions without looking too warrish.

Berghaus started their conquest of the military world during the Falklands War when British troops needed a kit that was up to the challenge they were sent to win. Since then, Berghaus has been kitting out the British military and many other European armies with their excellent quality rucksacks.

The Berghaus Vulcan is a military rucksack with a product code in the NATO logistics system. These are size-specific and listed below.

Along with the obvious choice as a hiking rucksack, this works wonders for the traveler too: sizewise it can be adjusted to ease navigating in dense traffic (trains! God-damn trains!) by removing the side pouches, and the not-so-overtly-military appearance could really be an essential factor in some places. The most important thing is that the ruck will not disintegrate on you.
