The gut hider pouch is designed to enhance storage capacity on your plate carrier or armor vest without occupying essential modular space. It is strategically positioned at the navel area, utilizing a dual-sided hook and loop panel that seamlessly integrates into the armor pocket between the flap and the carrier. This reversible panel ensures compatibility with various manufacturers' designs, allowing for easy adaptation to different carriers, such as the SMC carrier or minimalist carrier. The top panel can be flipped to align the correct side of the hook and loop Velcro with the plate pocket, ensuring the Lower Accessory Pouch is properly oriented with its zippered opening facing outward. Essentially, it functions as a tactical fanny pack, providing convenient storage just above the waistline. It's ideal for quick access to essentials like a bottle of Motrin or a pair of dry socks. Constructed from durable 500D Cordura nylon, the pouch securely attaches to the hook and loop panel.
