Designed specifically for first responders, the new products focus on organized access, modularity, and durability in high-demand first responder environments.

Four detachable hook-and-loop pockets with transparent fronts support rapid identification of contents, while an internal disposable glove compartment is accessible from the front of the pack.
A removable Tegris® SRPP panel with laser-cut holes and slots provides additional mounting flexibility using bungee cord or hook-and-loop fastening. The pack also includes side slots sized for SAM® splint rails, external scissor fixation, bottom MOLLE for additional pouches, and side mountings designed to accommodate the TT Side Pocket 17. A padded back carrying system, detachable shoulder straps, multiple carry handles, and a heavy-duty No. 10 YKK zipper support transport in dynamic response scenarios.

A padded, hook-and-loop divider allows the interior to be split into two vertically stacked compartments.
Additional features include detachable compression straps, a front daisy chain with bungee cord and stopper, and compatibility with packs requiring three MOLLE loops, including the TT Move On MK II and MK III.
