The Rothco MOLLE Modular Vest starts empty on purpose, so you hang your pistol or duty belt from it and add pouches one at a time until the loadout matches your plan. MOLLE compatible webbing takes modular pouches and tactical accessories, a zippered front with 2 quick-release buckles keeps it closed and stable, and padded recoil shoulders ease the load. Two inner mesh zippered pockets hold personal items, and an emergency drag handle rounds out the vest.

Why it works:

  • A setup you assemble yourself: Attach only what your day calls for, because the MOLLE compatible webbing accepts modular pouches and tactical accessories.
  • Belt and vest work as a pair: Hanging loops on the vest are made for attaching a pistol or duty belt, so the belt rides from the vest.
  • Stays closed while you move: A zippered front backed by 2 quick-release buckles gives the vest a secure and stable fit.
  • Easier on the shoulders: Padded recoil shoulders add comfort during use, and the vest is made of 100% polyester, offered in Olive Drab, Coyote Brown and Black.
  • Small items kept inside: Two inner mesh zippered utility pockets hold accessories and personal items, and an emergency drag handle is part of the build.

Who it's built for:

Anyone who wants a zip-on vest to fill with their own pouches will find it a flexible base. It suits people who wear their gear on the job as well as in the field.
