The Pouch Attachment Ladder System is a grid, or system, of webbing.
This system was invented and patented by United States Army Natick
Soldier Research, Development and Engineering Center and is used to attach
equipment onto different gear, such as vests and jackets. The goal is, of
course, to do this in a useful and easy way. It was first used on modular
light weight load carrying equipment (MOLLE) rucksacks. Now, it has branched
out to all sorts of training and tactical vests, including the modular body armor vests we carry at Steel Defender. The PALS are used to attach all kinds
of gear to the vests, such as knives, magazines for ammo, sticks, and other
weapons or navigational gadgets The PALS come in different styles and types, so
that a vest-wearer can have some individuality and customization of how their
equipment lays. There are also different methods of attaching the PALS, which
will determine how they lay on the vest.
PALS in combination with the state
of the art ceramic ballistic plates will keep you protected and equipped all
through your mission.
