The Rothco MOLLE 2 QT. Bladder Canteen Cover gives a 2-quart bladder canteen two ways to ride: mounted to the MOLLE panel on your vest or pack, or slung on its own strap. When the loadout is already set and you need more water on board, it integrates with the gear you already wear. On a lighter day, add the detachable shoulder strap and carry it crossbody or over the shoulder. A buckle closure keeps the canteen stored securely while still opening fast.

Why it works:

  • Rides on the gear you already run: Water becomes part of your existing load instead of one more thing in your hands. The cover is MOLLE compatible and integrates with tactical vests, packs and any gear with a MOLLE panel.
  • Goes solo when you want: You are not tied to a vest to bring water along. A detachable shoulder strap lets you carry it crossbody or over the shoulder.
  • Fast to open, dependable when shut: Reaching your water should not mean fighting the cover. A buckle closure gives quick access to the canteen and dependable storage.
  • Tablets ride beside the canteen: Purification tablets stay with the water they are meant for. A front pouch on the cover is designed for storing water purification tablets.
  • Made for years outdoors: Rugged construction is built to withstand years of outdoor use. The cover combines 600D polyester and 1000D Cordura nylon in an 8" x 7" x 3" body.

Who it's built for:

Made for campers and backpackers who run a MOLLE vest or pack and want 2 more quarts within reach. It also serves military personnel and public safety workers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the canteen included?▸

No. The package contains the cover and a detachable shoulder strap. The 2-quart bladder canteen is not included.

Can I use it without a MOLLE vest or pack?▸

Yes. Attach the detachable shoulder strap and carry the cover crossbody or over the shoulder, so it still works when your gear has no MOLLE panel.

How is this different from the Rothco G.I. Type cover?▸

Both hold a 2-quart bladder canteen in an 8" x 7" x 3" size. Choose this cover for MOLLE compatible mounting and a buckle closure, or choose the G.I. Type cover for rear belt clips and vents.

Can agencies and departments order the Rothco MOLLE 2 QT. Bladder Canteen Cover with a purchase order?▸

Yes. Luminary Global is an SDVOSB and WOSB. We accept purchase orders and GPC for agency and department orders, and offer volume quotes.
