PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
Fringe Sport really stepped up the ruck game with its release of the Bonehead Ruck Weight Plates, which not only look badass (I mean, it is a skull) but are also versatile and adaptable. Available in 10-pound, 20-pound, 30-pound and 45-pound options, the plates are made of solid cast iron and coated in a black powder coat, which makes them both tough and nice to look at.
Bonehead Ruck Weight Plates are designed to fit standard-sized rucksacks, such as the GoRuck GR1 and GoRuck Plate Carrier 2.0 as all dimensions for each weight are the same except for thickness. When not being used rucking, you can use and incorporate them in just about any other kind of workout.

Product Summary
Fringe Sport Bonehead Ruck Weight Plates are seriously hard core and bad to the bone. Designed to look like a skull, these beasts are made of solid cast iron and coated in a black powder coat. They are tough and made to fit in standard rucksack sizes (or really, any standard backpack). Available in four weight options – 10-, 20-, 30-, and 45-pounds, the Bonehead Weight Plates can also be purchased as a complete set to save some money.
Except for the thickness, the 20-, 30-, and 45-pound weights share the same dimensions and occupy very minimal space in your home gym or if you take it on the road with you. Designed with two handles, they can be incorporated into a myriad of other exercises as well. Whether you want to do squats, deadlifts, lunges, rows or swings, these multi-purpose weights can be used.
Their functionality and versatility are enticing to anyone looking to up their rucking game or enhance other workouts. One callout, and not a dealbreaker, was that the 45-pound plate was difficult to lift when lying flat on the floor because the handle hole was the same thickness as the plate.
