Key Features
Various Fixing options:
MOLLE Compatibility: Unlike older versions that used "Alice" clips, this is designed with webbing on the back to be attached to modern modular vests (like the Dutch modular tactical vest), backpacks, or belts.
Alice clips are the rugged metal fasteners used to attach pouches and gear to belts or packs. They were the gold standard for the U.S. Military until they were phased out by the modern MOLLE/PALS system in the late 1990s.
Closure: Typically features a durable plastic clip or Spanish-style quick-release buckle for fast access to the tool.
Drainage: Includes a drainage grommet at the bottom to prevent water and debris from collecting inside the pouch.
Intended Tool: Specifically sized for the standard NATO tri-fold folding shovel (NSN 5120-17-055-8698) not included.
