For a Fallen Catholic
Gift for my ex-husband, a dying, fallen Catholic. Hoping he catches the hint since there are no priests near where he lives. He will be well aware of why I ordered the 'Saint Jude' medal and perhaps smile! It is a stunning rosary. Perfect for any man but especially perfect for a retired Army Officer and Policeman. I pray Our Blessed Mother speaks to him through her Rosary. Our daughter is to deliver the Rosary to him personally as he can't make it to his mailbox, but since she lives in Seattle, I'm not sure that it has arrived as yet because all the roads in her area and neighborhoods are impassable. Three feet of snow blocking all smaller roads. I will use this company to purchase more Rosaries as the need arises and agree with others that FINALLY someone has recognized the need for Rosaries made for men. I pray your business grows beyond your wildest dreams & expectations. To be blunt, what with many men these days who are justifiably angry with the Church over all, I believe the Rosary can be the pathway back to healing. I pray that you allow my opinion to be printed. God Bless.

Birthday Gift
I purchased the Be a Man rosary for my Father-in-Laws birthday. He loved it! I was very pleased with the quality and the speedy delivery.
I only wish that there were more Saint medals to choose from. I had to order a St. Matthew medal from somewhere else and put it on the ring I had ordered to be put on the rosary.
All in all, I’m very satisfied with this rosary and I know my Father-in-Law loves it.
Mark Woyen said:
Awesome
The Rosary arrived in a timely manner. I couldn't be happier with the ordering process and what I received. Thank you very much.

Men's Rosary
This is THE loveliest rosary I have ever seen. My husband fell in love with it and even shed a tear. I am very glad I came across this site.

Heavy duty!
I love the weight and feel of this rosary...no longer worry about a rosary breaking in my pocket!
Chad H said:
Quality product and love the weight
This is a must for any person. The quality of the materials are superb. I love the length and weight. This would be a great gift for a father to purchase and give to his son. If you buy this rosary you have to purchase the leather zippered storage pouch, they go so great together.
David Donegan said:
Pray like a warrior.
This is a well made rosary aptly named "rugged". When praying with this rosary you feel like a Maccabee, like saint Dominic. In an age of "toxic masculinity " the church needs real men to stand up and pray. This rosary will last a lifetime, it helps bring me into God's presence and can help change the world if we use it daily.

My new rosary source!
I love my new catholic gentleman and WW1 rosaries! They are substantial feeling rather than delicate, and will not fall apart no matter the level of use. I will be back to buy more!
Jen Jordan said:
Love this rosary!
Our family has broken countless rosaries through the years. The most recent broken one came from my teenage son. He asked for another, do this time I ordered this rugged rosary similar to the one my husband has. I ordered another one for myself too. Now our family has 3 rugged rosaries and we all love them. They are well made and beautiful to look at. I would highly recommend!

Lives up to the description
As a convert to Catholicism, there are so many things that are new to me. I had a couple of rosaries that I had given to me. After stumbling upon this site, I loved the detail and the solid quality of the rosary so I figured I’d make the purchase. I am completely satisfied and glad I did. This thing is the real deal and has such great detail. You won’t be disappointed!

This Rosary should last me a lifetime and I plan on bringing it with me everywhere. I was recommended by a friend to check out these rosaries and I was not let down.

Strong sacramental for powerful prayers
I love the feel of this Rosary in my hands - and I mean handS. I hold the Crucifix and part of the Rosary in my right as I move prayer by prayer, bead by bead in my left. Sometimes I pull and feel the strength in response to the emotions I experience in contemplation of the mysteries, and I feel like I am being led through the Gospel by Our Lady, through the story of Our Savior Jesus Christ... lovingly led as if the Rosary were a lifeline and all I have to do is hold on.
Joshua Marley said:
Excellent product as always
I own several rosaries from your company, each one is excellent in it's own respect.
Thank you
Kathleen Peterson said:
So Great I Bought It Twice
My husband has lost many rosaries over the years to hard use at work, in the yard, forgetting to take them out for the laundry. The Rugged Rosary holds up to anything he can throw at it. We only needed another because he loved it so much he gave his to a friend. This is perfect for any busy/active man.
Mark Morff said:
The rosary is a gift for my cousin who is a policeman for our community, which he loved when I gifted him. Says he will keep it with him everyday, thank you for a the great workmanship!!! Merry Christmas and a very and blessed new year!!

Now a family tradition!
My oldest son was just Consecrated to our Blessed Mother for his 18th birthday, so I handed him my "Gentleman's Rosary" which he now carries every day. I have two other sons, so a new family tradition is born! I am currently praying on rosary #2, which will be handed to son #2 on his 18th birthday. Thank you for a great product!!! Merry Christmas!
Iris Gutierrez said:
Perfect for my Catholic Gentleman!
This rosary is beautiful and strong, just like the man who will be receiving this is a gift! The craftsmanship, quality, and attention to detail make this a perfect rosary for any prayer warrior!

My second purchase of the Catholic Gentleman Rugged Rosary. This one was a gift for a friend, a man of faith and conviction. A devoted father and husband. What finer gift for a man such as this.

Amy B said:
Best Rosaries ever...
This was actually my second order of rugged rosaries because my husband and son loved theirs so much we decided to order two more for priest friends of ours for Christmas. They arrived last week and are just the most beautiful, durable, manly rosaries we've ever seen. They really are some of the best rosaries we've ever owned. Will definitely be ordering more. Thank you for creating these!

Beautiful rosaries for my son and son-in-law to take hunting, fishing, hiking... Durable and beautiful! Praying they devote themselves to our Blessed Mother.
Keith said:
Awesome customized rosary!
I have the Catholic Gentleman rosary and pray on it regularly. I got a second one for a young man I’m sponsoring for Confirmation. I requested a different color paracord for his, and it looks great! I’m very pleased with it.
Brian Bergmann said:
Excellent quality - would prefer more saint options.
The quality of the product is excellent and will make a great gift for my sons and son-in-law this Christmas. It would help if there were more choices for saint tags, as they each have patrons, and half of them are not on the list.
Hi. Thank you so much for your kind words and feedback. I wanted to let you know that we carry literally hundreds of different saints medallions, we just cannot list them all so we list the most popular ones. If you need a different saint medal, just ask
support@ruggedrosaries.com. Thank you!

Superb quality
This has to be the best-made (and most awesome) rosaries I have ever purchased. Fantastic work.
Bradley Boaz said:
Catholic Gentlemans Rosary
High quality cord. Quality metal beads. Beautiful crucifix with relic embedded. Very masculine and heavy. Feels indestructible. Worth every penny.
O Mi Jesu, Dimitte nobis debita nostra. Libera nos ab igne inferni. Conduc in caelum onis animas. Praesertim eas quae maxime indigent misericordia tua.
Amen
Janet Corrigan said:
The Gentleman’s Rosary
Another homerun by Rugged Rosary!! This time my purchase was for a priest in my parish. He loved it! The quality is second to none. These rosaries are works of art. I particularly like the heavy metal collection because the rosaries feel substantial and powerful. This is my sixth purchase in this category and every one of them has been delivered quickly and have been perfect in appearance. No more broken rosaries for all six people whom I have gifted with one. Thank you RR.
Andrew Choi said:
Awesome!
The picture of the product does not do it justice. When I receive the product, it exceeded my expectations. These are heavy duty and built to last a long time. The rosary is such an awesome weapon and the build and feel of this rosary is a must have for one's spiritual arsenal.
István Szalai said:
Heavy weapon
Great, strong and the cruifix is extremely detailed work. I love it!

Just What I Expected
I don't have to worry about these breaking. Love how the beads slide, nice and heavy. My wife and I were very impressed with the cross alone. Beautiful
Connee Pines said:
Very happy
Ordering was easy, shipping was fast and the quality was perfect. Exactly what the description said it would be. I would recommend this site and this rosary to everyone. Whether you are buying for yourself, or buying as a gift, it is most impressive and will surely please. Thank you and may God bless you and your work.
C. Duarte said:
More than expected
I ordered a Catholic Gentleman Rosary - Be a Man. Be a Saint and according to the shipping it was it was supposed to take about a week. It actually arrived in just a few days, I have to say I couldn't be more delighted with the quality of the product and it was more than I expected. It will be with me on all my deployments as well as everywhere I go.
Thank you
johanna said:
Fantastic and solid/heavy, just what I was looking for
My husband carries around Rosary beads everywhere and he or my kids are always breaking them. I have been looking for a strong rugged set of beads that will last forever.....these are it! Love them
Carl Gross said:
The need for spacing.....
I'm mostly satisfied your work, but I have an important suggestion. The beads are tied altogether too tight , and difficult to keep place during prayer. You may think that in time the knots will tighten and allow some spacing. There is little chance of that happening any time soon. I considered returning it before I had it blessed, but I needed the rosary and decided I'll make do. In the future you may keep in mind a space of one bead to allow the fingers to feel that wonderful bead work. It also will make it easier to manage during prayer.
Adam Geise said:
Gave to confirmant
Gave it to man 8th grader before his confirmation. Love that you did it in Purdue colors. Says it's without a doubt the coolest rosary he has ever recieved!
Matt LaForge said:
A Great Reminder for Constant Prayer
I am a new Catholic and have found the rosary to be so helpful in growing in faith. I was excited to finally purchase my own and I am thrilled with my choice. I love the way it feels in my hands when I pray and just the way it feels in my coat pocket when I put my hands in. It instantly turns my mind to God probably a hundred times a day.
Fr. Joseph Brasseaux said:
Praise be Jesus Christ !!
I was overjoyed upon receiving my rosary. I had to go before the Blessed Sacrament exposed in the Adoration Chapel and offer several rosaries in praise and thanksgiving. Of course as a priest I immediately blessed my rosary before beginning my prayer. I’m certain that the rosary that was made me will give me and those I pray for an abundance of God’s graces and blessings. Many thanks to you Rugged Rosary !!
Michael Clancy said:
Pray with confidence....
Have prayed several thousand Holy Rosarys- since receiving my new rosary I have less distraction while reciteing my rosary
insted of wandering to thoughts "other oriented" I concentrate on the medals attached to hold my attention. Really love this rosary for what it is. Am striving to measure up to the "Gentleman" label this helps alot. peace mike c. sinner/servant
Teri H. said:
Gentlemen Rosary, Faith Over Fear Rosary, & Fire Agate Rosary
I ordered all 3 of the rosaries for my son. All 3 are very well made and very pretty. The paracord rosaries are surprisingly heavy in weight and will clearly last a lifetime. My Son is going into the seminary and he always carries a rosary on him. He prays the rosary daily. The only downside to the paracord rosaries are that they are impractical to carry in your pants or jacket pocket because they are so heavy. It would be like carrying a pocket full of quarters. Though my son is really pleased with them, he would appreciate a smaller/lighter weight version of the exact same rosaries. We will be returning to Rugged Rosaries for our future needs... Thank you!
Hi Teri. We also make many of our styles with acrylic resin beads and they are much lighter in weight. These are usually the ones that soldiers order too because of the lighter weight. When you read the descriptions on our rosary product pages, you'll see whether the beads are the heavier metal alloy, or the lighter acrylic resin. Thank you again.

I have about 7of your rosaries. I love holding them . The cording lends a real masculine feel and I’ve never seen another that can compare
Keep up the good work Jan

Absolutely Outstanding Quality!
I wanted a "manly" Rosary to pray with and to hand on to my kiddos later in life once my earthly journey is done. This Rosary is Awesome! The quality of this rosary will make it a family heirloom. I absolutely love it as do my friends and family who have gotten their hands on it as well. I cannot say enough good things about this Rosary. Thank you!!!
RAFAEL PEREZ said:
Outstanding Quality
I absolutely love my rosary. As a military officer, I’ve had my share of 550 cord rosaries, but this is in a league of its own. It’s got a heft that is absolutely satisfying. The craftsmanship shows. I heartily recommend purchasing this rosary, and the relic crucifix seals the deal. You won’t be disappointed.
Antonio Elizondo said:
Catholic Gentleman: Be a man. Be a Saint
I received my rosary October 8th, and like they advertised, it is heavier than the average rosary and it does feel POWERFUL! I also got the St. Michael necklace for my son, it too felt powerful in my hand. I got them blessed by our parish priest. He hasn't taken it off since. I love the way the rosary feels in my hand when I pray the rosary. The crucifix has beautiful detail, the knots look exactly like the pictures too. The price is worth it too. I think this rosary will last a few decades if not forever! Thank you Rugged Rosaries for such wonderful dedication to the craftsmanship of these rosaries.
Timothy Rackovan said:
Awesome!!!!
Heavy duty and I seriously doubt that if you prayed the Rosary constantly for years you couldn’t break it down.
Brent Walker said:
Love it!
Up till now it's been your traditional chain rosary for me. I stumbled across this site from the Catholicgentleman.com and decided to get one. Bigger and heavier than I expected, but I was looking for a rosary to keep in my truck rather than on my person so no big deal. Wasn't sure it was up my alley, but after a couple drives to and from work while reciting I've found I absolutely love it. Rugged is an understatement! One would be hard pressed to destroy this thing. Nice and hefty thanks to the metal beads. Definitely a man's rosary. I'm about to do a custom one as well. Also great for kids - you know how they break things. Highly recommend for anyone. Thank you!

Fast shipping and a quality product. This is exactly what I needed as my other rosaries kept breaking in my pocket. The rosary itself feels good in the hands and pocket. I hope to have this one for a long time! Thank you for your great work!
