Instant Modular Capacity & Convertible 30L Patrol Pack
Expand your load-carrying setup with the iconic Genuine British Army DPM Side Pocket Set, universally known across the military community as "Rocket Pockets." Engineered as part of the official UK Ministry of Defence Personal Load Carrying Equipment (PLCE) system, this complete set allows you to instantly add 20 litres of modular storage to your main rucksack or convert the pockets into a standalone 30-litre patrol daypack.
Constructed from heavy-duty, water-resistant 1000D IRR Cordura® nylon in classic Woodland Disruptive Pattern Material (DPM), this complete kit includes two 10-litre side pockets, a PLCE medical/patrol mesh yoke, and all necessary linking straps. Whether zipped directly onto a short or long-conformation Infantry BERGEN or clipped into the shoulder harness, this setup delivers battle-tested versatility for multi-day field operations, expedition trekking, and wilderness bushcraft.
