I love that you’re constantly innovating and bringing more and more to market. More options is not a bad thing in my opinion. Keep up the good work and the more you can help keeping the responsible citizens equipped with quality gear is outstanding and why I love your company!
Excellent product here! Marine veteran here, I have been doing my best in finding a modern design chest rig that has mag pouches off to the side. I found out QUICK how important it is to lie down as flat as humanly possible while going prone. Also in a jungle environment, it’s imperative to have a nice light rig that carries weight near waist and midline. It gets hot fast and you don’t want to go down because you are wearing gear that cannot breathe. I can’t say it enough, this is a game changer. 🍻
I would prefer a zipper inside pouch to the elastic pouches personally. I think this rig is really cool. Great job Adam and team on designing this and getting it out.
I love that you guys didn't let the back of the rig panels go to waste, however I am a bit perplexed by the decision to include one 7.62, one 5.56, and one pistol/utility sleeve. I feel like 2 7.62 sleeves would have been more appropriate or allowed for a more various use of the rig. 7.62 already has issues when it comes to obtaining a combat load on rigs and placards, so I feel like trying to get the best of both worlds on this rigs ultimately makes the rig suffer.
Everything shown is incredibly dope. Ya’ll clearly think about the “why” more than other brands. I’d love to see basically a hybrid of the SPUD pouch and JSTA; a single layer pouch w/ optional pangolin flap that is Velcro lined for all of your inserts.
THIS. Spiritus Team. Would allow more secure containment of awkward items in the JUSTA. ie your 16oz Nalgene fits, but not quite as securely as I'd like.
it's got a lot going for it than just being another split rig. I think a chest rig is just a chest rig, but what really needs to get updated/repinagined is the actual harness portion. so much is getting done with all these new materials, I think there can be better than just folded Cordura and webbing. pretty excited to see what that new pouch is about though
It's amazing how often we're seeing innovation borrowing from the past more and more. It's a refreshing reminder that sometimes we just overthink things. This looks like a great piece of kit!
As a civilian that's just trying to be better prepared, I appreciate kit like this so much because affordability, comfort, and simplicity are huge considerations. This paired with a ruck would be a great comfortable and functional setup for a concerned citizen.
I have a split front chest rig for that very reason and it’s not quite there as far as being versatile like this one you’re showing! Awesome and Inventive Gear Guys!!!!!
Thanks for thinking of the light infantry! Would also be super rad if there was an IFAK insert for the sack pouch, then you would have the molle space on the rig for mission essential kit
Definitely want to pick one of these up. As someone who wanted a suspender style type who already has a fat strap and back strap for my Micro-fight MkV, this will be a great addition to the line-up of items I can add to my rig set ups.
I’ll be refreshing the page on Friday to cop one. This solves several problems for me and will allow me to maybe strengthen some minor weaknesses in my current load. Love you guys!
I got mine two weeks ago. I've already brought it to the field like twice or so, and so far I'm loving it! One thing is I don't really like to put my tourniquet out and hanging under my GP pouch, so I can't wait for the radio pouch to come out because in the video I see there is a tourniquet pouch of some sort. Also can't wait for the pouch will fit into the hook and loop field.
getting into prone fast and as close to the ground as possible is especially good, when you are under a heavy artillery fire. thanks for reimagining such a great concept. definitely getting one to Ukraine.
Cant wait for the combo radio/utility pouch. It will put this rig into a perfect rig for recce/sniping work. I loved how versitile the split is for in environments and operations that have varied weather and varied activity levels.
Design Modification Suggestion - On the individual panels where the 4 side fasteners are attached for the front and back attachments, consider having them attached at the same heights as the top and bottom cut points for weaving on pouches. If they are lined up with the top and bottom most attachment Palls Webbing, with enough length to weave Malice Clip or integrated pouch strap, pushing the usable row area one spot right and left of the panel. This will give the end user the option to push pouches one row over ether side with the option of attachment points, taking it from 6 usable row to 8 if required. For example, I could run; Left Side -Front to Back: -Spud Pouch, -Multi Platform Radio Chassis Mk5 & -GP Tall Pouch. Right Side -Front to Back: -Spud Pouch x2, -GP Tall Pouch. As Light Infantry, that would be my ideal load barring set up. That’s what I plan to set it up when I purchase this product. Hopefully this gives you something to consider. Thanks for reading.
Love y'all's gear. Always innovating and producing quality product. One of the first things I thought of when I got the email about this rig is that it resembles my strap-style bird hunting vest, which I love. Maybe y'all could make a high-speed dove hunting vest one day, haha....I'd buy it immediately.
I used a split rig as a SAW gunner. 4x 100rd nutsacks on the front. However, ran a leather man pouch in the weave on the left side of the front buckle. You need instant access to a tool when you’re a machine gunner. After that you’re right for space, IFAK on one side and GP pouch on the other. Kept the backside slick for riding around. This was a tac tailor mav with the improved harness. IOTV underneath, best part of the split rig was putting it on with all the weight of ammo. Slip it on like a jacket and buckle the front. Pretty dope set up, even in training worn without body armor it was super comfortable. Any machine gunners out there, consider these thoughts.
Two of my co workers have chest rigs. Ive never really used them. But, you know, this Spiritus rig looks very functional. I’m going to buy one and use it for work.
I lost about 60 lbs in the past year, and I can say that being able to order and fit in the size 1 cumberbun was something special. Your stuff is awesome and I am happy to be a slightly less fat american LARPing in quality made in america kit.
This is a sick piece of kit. I can’t wait to see what you guys put out along with this idea. I’d love to see this with a little more space on the sides to add some extra sustainability to this rig.
It’s awesome to see you all continue to innovate. Any chance we’ll see a split rig that’s essentially two mk5 panels? I think the open pocket/ability to add inserts would work extremely well for my needs.
Have you ever thought about having the inner elastic Pouches swappable with Velcro (or something else) so that way it's an extra layer of customization for end user preference and sell it separately? Or create the pocket for hard inserts for mags?
Sure, but remember this isn't supposed to be a super heavy rig. 2 spud pouches can fit 6 .556 mags no problem then with another 4 fitting in the rear pouches your at 10 plus one in the gun. Do you really need that many mags at the ready? Maybe you do but I'd say most don't. Any additional mags could stay in your assault pack or in a GP for refilling the cells.
i wonder if you can put a jtac panel on the front buckles even though it makes the product not a split chest rig, but overall this is an awesome product and very good in explaining the features of your products on all of your videos
I really like how easy these come on and off especially when layering up and down. My gripe with my Mk5 rig is having to adjust constantly to what I'm wearing. Sweet system.
I utilize this Rig as a Construction Worker On my Left I carry a NAR Operator IFAK and a CAT-7 Tourniquet And on the Right I have a Mini 4X6 Pouch and a SS Nalgene Pouch ! I deal with safety and on site injuries and it is a perfect rig ( having being made fun of for looking like a Larper )
A roll-pin design buckle would have been useful for easily and quickly tightening and loosening the rig when using or not using body armour. Also for losing weight whilst on patrol for any prolonged extended periods of time
When I used an RRV style chest rig, if I had to go into the prone position or lots of ruck marching. I wouldn’t put the waist strap around me, but I’d do it up. When I would go into the prone I’d shove the RRV up in front of me so I wouldn’t be laying on it. During ruck marches the fact that the waist belt wasn’t done up it would allow for more ventilation while doing heavy activities. When I did do the waist belt up, sentry, being a passenger in any vech or doing A to C as light infantry
This looks pretty great. Would be great if you made short Spud pouches for AXSR/AXMC/MRAD mags. Pop two of those up front and then a padded GP for LRF/Binos and a regular GP pouch for sour patch kids…or whatever haha But seriously…please consider a shorter spud pouch that can fit a long action (double-stack) mag.
This style of rig is awesome and definitely suits my needs great, hopefully ill be able to upgrade to your products from my condor version because im to much of a broke peasant to be able to afford it
Yes! Innovation and ergonomics thnks for thinking and consider our comfortability , this on my list next deployment.that hook loop it’s where this excels! A Looking forward for that next radio pouch! Thnks again. Slow n smooth Smooth is Fast
Looks like a capable rig, I’d prefer just a smidge more room for mags maybe the elastic inside could be 2 556 pouches rather than the small pistol pouch. looks like the 556 slot is hard to get to sitting under the shoulder strap.
I think you missed a mark with the bottom pouch and I think I might have a direction you might not have thought of. I'm pretty sure you're using the Eagle H Harness out of the SFLCS kit, the Blackhawk knockoff, and the LBT version as inspiration for your LBE system. I have been using the floatation pouches to store ifaks. I can fit 4 extra ifaks in ziplok bags in the rig without effecting the overall fighting capability on the outside ie out of the way until needed. I have also tried using those floatation pouches for ration storage. I field strip some mres and stick them I'm there. If what ever you're sticking in the pouches has some cushion to it, you've gained more cushion. I have also been attempting to use and modify these rigs to eliminate the ruck by making a rig that kinda resembles a ww2 assault vest with the built in ruck. I'm coming close but as you're probably aware noone makes a good version of a molle buttpack and the overall mounting configuration of SFLCS is too low for comfortable long term wear without adding the extra suspension kits adding weight. I believe that the rig as built would be a very good medic or combat lifesaver oriented system.
@@chrisspiritus9043 can't wait. I'm really following this project. I carried the Blackhawk in 2004. I'm hoping for a 6 row molle buttpack, but will suffice for a SAW pouch with the strobe/tool pouch.
WRT you mentioning how similar the panels are to your mk5 placard. Should I just buy another mk5 and some straps to complete the rig since i already own a mk5
I've got a comment...and y'all's stuff looks amazing, by the way. A lot of Americans are using AKs, 300 BLK, ARs chambered in 7.62x39, Ruger 30 mags, etc. It seems like the majority of companies that make chest rigs or MOLLE equipment don't plan this into their platforms. What kind of options do you have or what options have you specifically designed into your gear for Americans that choose these alternative calibers?
I know I’m getting ahead of myself, but I’m super interested in that hydration/GP mixed pouch. Finding a way to carry nalgenes is a problem target has not been sufficiently addressed in the market.
Did you guys play around with different "lengths" when designing the split front i.e 8 Molle Columns each panel etc? I can't help but feel 6 is a little too micro and perhaps 8 would be more ideal. This would allow an extra pouch each side to be mounted. Noting that you designed this with Recon/Snipers in mind...wouldn't a "sustainment" type set up be more versatile?
I'm very excited for this! Will it come in all the colorways? I was very sad to see the spud pouch didn't come in Tropic. Seemed like the perfect color to have built-in scrim
I felt the same way but in order to offer that they would probably have to use a lower grade material just for the colorway. Ranger green goes great with tropic! That's what I went with for the spuds. I've also found that regular MC mixes really well with tropic. I'm not big on everything having to match but I get that some people are.
That gp/bottle/radio pouch looks tight, would prob buy if I could fit some water and a 10x42 bino in there. The ability to go prone with this looks amazing for recce but also hunting applications. One question I have is will a shoulder strap on a ruck or backpack squeeze a pouch/the rig against you making it inacessable?
Thanks! That pouch is coming very soon. Also, you should be able to configure the split rig into a position where that doesnt happen. We have a ton of users using this with rucks no problem
I love you guys are always forward thinking. I used the mayflower split rig years ago. I like this for the fact I can set up how I want it. For me the biggest issue is fit and load displacement on my shoulders from injuries/surgeries etc for long missions. I could maybe see with this, adjustability for should width may be a nice add with weight shifted to outside of center. But as I said I will have to use it first .👍🏻🇺🇸DoWork
Could you have a sack under each flap to have medical on 1 end, gp on the other, and then on the actual molle, have your admin, mag, and canteen pouches?
@@SpiritusSystems bitchin. Another question, can we expect a variant of this that goes closer to the lbe side of the spectrum? I have an autistic need to carry 8 mags on my torso
Fuck yeah. This is great, exactly what I’ve always wanted. I’ve jerry rigged my own split harness setups in the past. I also used to run a TYR tactical sniper coma harness, which is great, but I always wished I had a smaller split rig option. I could carry a full load with 6+ 7.62 mags but that got bulky. Plus the coma harness has a placard on the back, which I usually put a butt pack or something on. But as you said, when you’re carrying 100lbs of ruck doing recce shit, that sucks and gets in the way. I like the open back H harness design. Definitely getting this. Thanks guys. 🐍🏹
I dig it, but im getting FLC vibes. Either way it's making the old better and continuing to evolve Eta: can you make a two loop pouch insert? It holds the iwa flashbangs perfectly, if not then that's cool. Im cutting down the 3 loops as needed
Wish yall would make a molle panel for a nav board or the cell phone holders. I'd love to run this as a hunting rig but I need my bino pouch high and up front.
Just adding a comment: Kind of like the product, but not sure about the inside pouches. it would be nice to see a pad for comfort. If you have to go prone, the padding would help. I would rather have double stack mag pouches on the outside than have one inside and one outside.
Looks cool guys, just wondering why it wasn't designed more akin to 2xMk5 so it could use the inserts? That way you could carry 6 556 or 4 762 without double stacking and provide faster access to the 'inner' mags Vs the sewn elastic. I'm sure this was considered so just curious why this design.
I like it a lot, but I don't like the way the buckel connects the from the side. I want something like a straight back pannel like vest at the back like a wrap around the body to stablelize the stuff.
I love that you’re constantly innovating and bringing more and more to market. More options is not a bad thing in my opinion. Keep up the good work and the more you can help keeping the responsible citizens equipped with quality gear is outstanding and why I love your company!

Just buy 2 split rigs and use one of the top buckles for each one for the harness and put a strap with 2 males on it to cinch the middle together

Kit has come full circle for me. This is reminiscent of my old UCP IBA and FLC 😂😂
Of course the fit and finish on this thing is much tighter!

Being able to carry 4x 762x51 or 6x 556 in the internal cells would have been nice over the pistol cell.
There are just too many smaller tools that fit wonderfully in the pistol mag sized pouch.
Sure, but remember this isn't supposed to be a super heavy rig. 2 spud pouches can fit 6 .556 mags no problem then with another 4 fitting in the rear pouches your at 10 plus one in the gun.

I was just thinking the other day that someone needs to make a side chest rig for going prone and here it is.
A roll-pin design buckle would have been useful for easily and quickly tightening and loosening the rig when using or not using body armour. Also for losing weight whilst on patrol for any prolonged extended periods of time

Looks like a capable rig, I’d prefer just a smidge more room for mags maybe the elastic inside could be 2 556 pouches rather than the small pistol pouch. looks like the 556 slot is hard to get to sitting under the shoulder strap.
run 3x spud pouches on the front of each panel and boom, you now have 18 5.56 mags on the front of your body
I think you missed a mark with the bottom pouch and I think I might have a direction you might not have thought of. I'm pretty sure you're using the Eagle H Harness out of the SFLCS kit, the Blackhawk knockoff, and the LBT version as inspiration for your LBE system.

I know I’m getting ahead of myself, but I’m super interested in that hydration/GP mixed pouch. Finding a way to carry nalgenes is a problem target has not been sufficiently addressed in the market.
Tactical tailor has a fight light utility pouch that can hold a Nalgene and two mags inside. I got two on my belt kit
What, is that awesome level 100 wizard patch you have on your ID badge!?
Similar to the 83 battle jacket I wore in the SADF 1985 to 1992
The SADF was way ahead of everyone else at the time
Did you guys play around with different "lengths" when designing the split front i.e 8 Molle Columns each panel etc? I can't help but feel 6 is a little too micro and perhaps 8 would be more ideal. This would allow an extra pouch each side to be mounted. Noting that you designed this with Recon/Snipers in mind...wouldn't a "sustainment" type set up be more versatile?
I'm very excited for this! Will it come in all the colorways? I was very sad to see the spud pouch didn't come in Tropic. Seemed like the perfect color to have built-in scrim
Only the typical squadron colors for now, until the manufacturer develops the other patterns.
I felt the same way but in order to offer that they would probably have to use a lower grade material just for the colorway. Ranger green goes great with tropic! That's what I went with for the spuds. I've also found that regular MC mixes really well with tropic. I'm not big on everything having to match but I get that some people are.
Whoah, tactical tailor made the MAV 2 piece like 10 years ago. Sick job guys lmao.
That gp/bottle/radio pouch looks tight, would prob buy if I could fit some water and a 10x42 bino in there. The ability to go prone with this looks amazing for recce but also hunting applications. One question I have is will a shoulder strap on a ruck or backpack squeeze a pouch/the rig against you making it inacessable?
Thanks! That pouch is coming very soon. Also, you should be able to configure the split rig into a position where that doesnt happen. We have a ton of users using this with rucks no problem
@@SpiritusSystems That's awesome
Great rig, seriously though would definitely recommend toning down the background tunes in these videos.
Its already 10-15 db lower than the industry standard for music under VO.
I love you guys are always forward thinking. I used the mayflower split rig years ago. I like this for the fact I can set up how I want it.
For me the biggest issue is fit and load displacement on my shoulders from injuries/surgeries etc for long missions. I could maybe see with this, adjustability for should width may be a nice add with weight shifted to outside of center.
But as I said I will have to use it first .👍🏻🇺🇸DoWork
Could you have a sack under each flap to have medical on 1 end, gp on the other, and then on the actual molle, have your admin, mag, and canteen pouches?
Each panel allows you to attach a sack, or other Velcro accessories from the bottom
@@SpiritusSystems bitchin. Another question, can we expect a variant of this that goes closer to the lbe side of the spectrum? I have an autistic need to carry 8 mags on my torso
Fuck yeah. This is great, exactly what I’ve always wanted. I’ve jerry rigged my own split harness setups in the past. I also used to run a TYR tactical sniper coma harness, which is great, but I always wished I had a smaller split rig option. I could carry a full load with 6+ 7.62 mags but that got bulky. Plus the coma harness has a placard on the back, which I usually put a butt pack or something on. But as you said, when you’re carrying 100lbs of ruck doing recce shit, that sucks and gets in the way. I like the open back H harness design. Definitely getting this. Thanks guys. 🐍🏹
Thanks for your support!
I dig it, but im getting FLC vibes. Either way it's making the old better and continuing to evolve
Eta: can you make a two loop pouch insert? It holds the iwa flashbangs perfectly, if not then that's cool. Im cutting down the 3 loops as needed
Wish yall would make a molle panel for a nav board or the cell phone holders. I'd love to run this as a hunting rig but I need my bino pouch high and up front.
Need something along these lines but a full on belt system a la the velocity jungle. Something that can accomodate a saw/machine gunner loadout.
When are those updated fat straps coming?
TBD
Hell yea this is dope
These guys care.
I’m in. How much are they going to be? I’ll place my order tmrw as soon as they drop!
When I clicked on this video, I whispered to myself “why do you need a split rig” in the most cynical way. I get it now.
Just adding a comment: Kind of like the product, but not sure about the inside pouches. it would be nice to see a pad for comfort. If you have to go prone, the padding would help. I would rather have double stack mag pouches on the outside than have one inside and one outside.
i like the concept
Nice rig.
When is that new H harness going to get released?
Split rig is a great way to spell TUSC!
Looks cool guys, just wondering why it wasn't designed more akin to 2xMk5 so it could use the inserts? That way you could carry 6 556 or 4 762 without double stacking and provide faster access to the 'inner' mags Vs the sewn elastic. I'm sure this was considered so just curious why this design.
Could you run like a handgun (particularly a Staccato C2 or CS) in the 7.62 pouch ?
Not sure if it is like this but if the Velcro is open from the top as well so you could put the bungee Velcro mag punch’s in there as well
It only opens from the bottom
I just a made a video talking about this. I was wearing my father in laws LBE/ALICE. It just works.
I like it a lot, but I don't like the way the buckel connects the from the side. I want something like a straight back pannel like vest at the back like a wrap around the body to stablelize the stuff.
