for those not in the know, MOLLE means "MO.dular L.ightweight L.oad-carrying E.quipment." it’s a military acronym that describes any piece of equipment that employs PALS webbing ("P.ouch A.ttachment L.adder S.ystem"). this is a standardized grid of webbing that leaves equally-spaced loops all over the surface, allowing the user to attach a seemingly infinite number of pouches of various utility to their equipment. the US military has been using it for years.
so R.E.load bags, who i like a lot, just announced their MOLLE ROLLTOP BACKPACK, and while i love the idea of versatile and personalized pouch placement, i can’t help but wonder why one wouldn’t just go to the army/navy store and get a proper military MOLLE bag for what i’m gonna guess is like half the price? these messenger/urban bags are costly shit, and decommissioned military shit is really kinda not.
i guess my question is … what’s the point?
