The Woodsman Chest Pack is slightly larger than our original chest rigs-kit bags with a dedicated rear quick-draw concealment pouch. With two main pouches and a front stretchy pocket, the rig has plenty of room for a day hike to carry all of your essentials.
Starting at the front of the main pouch, there are two rows of laser-cut skeletonized PALS/MOLLE webbing grids with shock cord holes for attaching gear. We placed a stretch nylon pocket between the grids to hold items such as cell phones, fishing tackle, EDC equipment, and game calls for silent retrieval while in the woods.
Inside the main zippered compartment, there is plush loop Velcro lined on both walls for attaching hook-backed inserts with an adjustable paracord retention system to keep the pouch from opening all the way. It is also large enough to carry mirrorless/DSLR cameras, comparable in size to the SONY FX-30 with a lens attached, while leaving plenty of room for additional items.
Behind the main compartment is a divider with an additional waterproof zipper for dedicated conceal carry. What's unique about this compartment is our use of grippy HANK (Hypalon) quick-draw pull tabs on each corner for both right and left-handed rapid deployment. When not being used, the pull tabs can be tucked inside the pouch and used as connection points for lanyards.
The back interior wall is lined with plush loop Velcro for attaching hook-backed holsters or inserts, and the adjacent wall has 3 built-in pockets with elastic for securing up to three .308 or .223 mags. This means you can carry 6 mags simultaneously while using the rear kangaroo pocket against your body.
The rear kangaroo pocket houses modular inserts with a full passthrough at the bottom for hanging dangler pouches and a removable rear mesh panel. There is an additional laminated PALS/MOLLE grid with shock cord holes underneath the bag for attaching knives, bear spray cans, water bottles, ponchos, etc.
Lastly, the Woodsman Chest Pack includes the same shoulder harness used on all of our rigs and is compatible with all of our accessories for a complete modular system. It can attach to plate carriers or be used as a fanny pack using the included waist strap.
