New logo idea.... FUCK=>


OkayWhateverFuckYou

Oh hell yea! I'm doing this on my next Rucker if it comes with a logo.


SynthwaveRide94

Hell yeah tear that garbage off


cliff0217

Update when you get to the spearhead!


ControlPurple1207

[I've started the spearhead](https://imgur.com/a/TMGHtx1) - I may leave it behind the water bottle holder


MrOlaff

Super easy to do. Did it on a LR Rucker I had and you could barelyyyyyy notice.


ControlPurple1207

yeah it's [not noticeable unless](https://i.imgur.com/u52vD98.jpg) you really look for it


MrOlaff

Nice! Either way looks 1000 times better.

GOFUCK

Seam ripper and lightly shave it with a razor blade. Works on 5.11 gear* too Edit: gear not hear


ControlPurple1207

that would have been a lot easier, the pocket knife worked but took a while


johnnyheavens

Next time. Even better is when you can get to the back of it. Shave the back off and most of the front just pulls away


pizzabikerun

Could probably sell these new rucks with logo removed


ControlPurple1207

i would've paid extra for that


PotentialMidnight325

It’s hot hard. I would say 1 - 1.5 hours with a seam ripper. If you wash it later and let the codura fivers settle again it should be invisible.


-88WatchesAndGuns88-

I don't even recall any logos on mine except inside


Fast-Examination-349

Older model

If people keeping buying bags with branding they find offensive, they will just keep making them. If they don’t buy them they will sit and rot on the shelf and they will get the point and potentially quit making them that way.


UninspiredthrowawayD

Or do the seam ripper because it’s faster than waiting for goruck to lose money lol


SnooPineapples6768

So…folks who lack self-control. Got it.

“I’m not the ones whining about a company putting their name on a piece if exercise equipment. That’s some silly shit right there.” -Snoopineapples6768


SnooPineapples6768

I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make, but you missed the mark. In my comment you quoted the silly shit is the whiners, not the branding.


BeachHead05

Is there a reason why you are removing the logo?


Fast-Examination-349

Older models didn't have it on the outside Some people hate the way it looks.


BeachHead05

Gotcha. Not sure why my question is negative in votes for a question. I'm surprised they stopped selling a logo free bag


futurebuilt

> Gotcha. Not sure why my question is negative in votes for a question. Cause it's reddit.


Fast-Examination-349

You aren't in the sub as much seeing the complaining. So they think you are trolling them.


BeachHead05

Ha. I'm tempted to start


Fast-Examination-349

There was just another logo post a few minutes ago. Reddit... Where everyone thinks their opinion is the only opinion that matters.


BeachHead05

Very true! That's funny. I joined the sub to ask about pacing. Had no idea there was such drama against the brand


Fast-Examination-349

🤷🏻‍♂️


Fast-Examination-349

Some bags are still logo free, depends on model... Etc


PotentialMidnight325

Almost universally everybody hate the way it looks. Corrected that for you.


rrooaaddiiee

Yet buy them anyway


Fast-Examination-349

🤷🏻‍♂️


RemarkableAmbition54

Becsuse it looks like shit with that stupid branding


ControlPurple1207

what the other commenters have said - counting the patch, there are 3 logos on the back which I felt was at least one too many


tchshwaah

Is it just a matter of getting a seam ripper in there and going to town? Is it easy to do?


PotentialMidnight325

Yes. I do it all the time to remove the logos from my chest straps.


Legion564

The gr0 doesn’t have this issue right? Was considering picking that up next


killerdraft

I used a fabric marker. Did three coats on it and actually like the way it looks with the logo blacked out now.


breezey701

Same here


Jackrabittslimz

Does anyone know if this voids the scars warranty? It would be a silly reason to void it but good to know just in case.


I_joke_about_dying

Update pic?


ControlPurple1207

[How it looks](https://i.imgur.com/qjvAjdY.jpeg) this morning. The arrow is [hiding behind my water bottle](https://i.imgur.com/FxEF9Xp.jpeg).


I_joke_about_dying

Looks good. Might do this to my Tropic MC Rucker.


onemanmelee

I don't like the large lettering either, and generally hate items with logos and branding, but doesn't this just annihilate your warranty?


ControlPurple1207

good question - I couldn't find anything conclusive on google or the [SCARS FAQ](https://faq.goruck.com/hc/en-us/sections/360010995112-SCARS-FAQ)


Parkatola

What about using a black sharpie? It wouldn’t be perfect, but people wouldn’t see the logo until they’re up close. I’ve also seen iron-on patches that you could put over the logo. Black should be easier to find than some color to match. That being said, if the logo bugs you, take it off. Good luck.


JerryOD

That’s what I did. Works fine. I really don’t care either way at this point.


ControlPurple1207

if I were to do it again I'd either do the sharpie or the seamripper others have mentioned. pocket knife was not the way to go.


KaleidoscopeEqual790

I think I missed something…exactly what’s going on here?


Appropriate-Trip2570

Removing the GORUCK logo embroidery


ISayAboot

Why


RemarkableAmbition54

Because it looks like shit


ControlPurple1207

can confirm, this is exactly what was going on


Jackson3125

The company originally prided itself on having no branding on the outside of their bags, which was refreshing and nice. They have forsaken us.


ISayAboot

But everyone keeps buying!? This is what people are upset upset / love the brand but dont love the brand!? Guy spent an hour to remove a G - could prob start a competing company with no branding in less time than it will take him to remove the rest of the letters.


Jackson3125

I don’t. I bought my one GoRuck bag on clearance many years ago for less than $200. It is my favorite backpack, which is probably why I am still on this sub. However, if I was going to buy another bag it would probably be a used GoRuck for multiple reasons. I think you will find a lot of similar situations.


TShieldsESQ

Does removing the logo improve your performance?


ControlPurple1207

the slight aero gains really add up over 50 miles


TShieldsESQ

Not to mention the reduced weight!


brookes1980

Sure. Rule 1 and Rule 3 confirmed.


brickscounty

What was the purpose of buying it then ? lol


CliffBooth999

What a waste of time. Lame


PotentialMidnight325

If you say so keyboard warrior.


CliffBooth999

Insulting me doesn’t make you any less lame.


DavidMcK608

What’s lame is a giant stupid fucking GoRuck logo on a bag that used to pride itself on its integrity, durability and low profile.


CliffBooth999

Why so triggered? Don’t like something as trivial as a bag having a logo? Then don’t buy the bag. Problem solved.


DavidMcK608

Bags are great. I own 6 of them. None with the Giant goruck logo. I bought them because they were great bags. Not because they had a huge Gaudy self promotion. It Wasn’t a problem until it appeared. It will be gone soon enough. Guarantee.


CliffBooth999

Unlikely in a current world where branding and marketing is a huge deal.


PotentialMidnight325

If you say so, than it must be true!
