Pack Hip Pouches that Don't Close with Zipper / Velcro???

[shmcleod]

I am looking for hip pouches I can add to my Kuiu pack that don't close with zipper or velcro. With a zipper, it is impossible to close with one hand, and still tricky to close with two cuz its too damn hard to twist your body around and hold the back of the pouch in place while you close the zipper. Velcro is obviously a non-starter based on how loud it is. Is there someone who makes good size hip pouches that close using magnets or the elastic strap/hook system used by FHF?

I also recall there being a Rokslide member who makes custom pouches, but can't find the thread.

Any help is appreciated!

The mystery ranch forager box uses an elastic closure.

Nimrod pouches are 1/4 twist lock button and work well

I often use military style dump pouches, TAG has some good ones that have a drawstring closure.

Marsupial has magnetic closure.

Eastern Woods Outdoors makes fleece dump pouches that might work for you.

Army surplus used to have snap and button pouches. Might be worth a look.

Please report back on what route you end up going.

Following, a magnetic closure similar to how Yeti bag ice chest closes would be awesome

Havnt figured anything out yet. I think a dump pouch system makes a lot of sense, but most of them are quite large.

Look at the maxpedition rollypoly....it is 1/3 the size of the military pouches. Drawback is a belt style loop for attaching it. The military ones mostly have opening loops that can go around a belt or thru pals webbing.

I have a Seek Outside Nalgene bottle holder, I rarely use it for a bottle, been using it like a dump pouch and really like it. Lightweight, good size, has the draw string closure but usually don’t bother with it.

I run a dump pouch on my left hip and a zipper pouch (stone glacier) on my right. Dumper is great for grab and go items or stuff you want easy access to. They flop a little too much for full time use IMO. My current dump pouch is from a shop called tactical tailor. They sell on Amazon and a site called skd as well as direct. That rolly Polly version @*zap* mentioned above is a good option But I swapped it out for the TT version to save a little bulk and weight.

FWIW Tactical tailor has some belt pouches you can operate one handed.

bonus feature of a dump pouch is it can be a gun carrier. Drop the butt of the gun into the pouch and rig a strap to your shoulder strap for the forend or barrel and it works like a gun bearer.
