MOLLE or M.O.L.L.E stands for Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment, and has replaced the older ALICE gear in the military. MOLLE vests and packs have PALS (Pocket Attachment Ladder Systems) that allow you to add multiple pieces of gear to a vest or pack. For example, you can hang holsters, utility pouches, magazine pouches or a hydration carrier on your vest or pack. This extends the load-bearing capabilities of your equipment and allows your kit to be customized to your current mission. Items that are MOLLE compatible should work together, even if they are from different manufacturers.
