The SouthPaw Harness is a lightweight, modular platform engineered to maximize ventilation and mobility. Built around a durable technical mesh chassis, the platform supports soft ballistic armor, cooling packs and two configurable harness systems in a low-profile design.

Laser-cut MOLLE loop Velcro on both sides provides a scalable mounting platform for ID patches, IR markers, strobes, utility pouches and other accessories.

Three reinforced recovery handles—including a center extraction handle and dual side handles—provide enhanced control during lifting, vehicle loading, obstacle negotiation and emergency extraction.
