Molle Pouches
Molle Pouches
A molle pouch is a piece of webbing that’s attached to the outside of a pack or vest. Molle pouches come in many different sizes and shapes, allowing you to carry equipment like bars, plates and utensils. They can be attached either on the inside or outside of your pack (or vest), depending on how they’re worn. If you’re looking for something more versatile than traditional molle attachments such as loops or buckles, consider getting an MOLLE pouch instead!
