5.11 Tactical Skyweight Hip Belt (Color: Sage Green / Large-X-Large)

The 5.11 Tactical Skyweight Hip Belt in Sage Green (Large-X-Large) is engineered to provide superior comfort, durability, and versatility for tactical operators, outdoor enthusiasts, and first responders alike. Designed to be a perfect companion for the popular 5.11 Skyweight packs, chest packs, and sling packs, this hip belt is a must-have for anyone looking to distribute heavy loads efficiently while maintaining full mobility during demanding missions or outdoor activities.

At the core of the Skyweight Hip Belt’s design is its ergonomic shape, which contours naturally to the human body. This tailored fit ensures that weight is evenly distributed across the hips, reducing strain on the lower back and shoulders. This thoughtful design detail enables users to carry heavier loads comfortably for extended periods, making it ideal for long training sessions, tactical operations, hiking, or any activity requiring reliable load-bearing gear.

Crafted from TAC-LAM high-strength laminate Nylon Cordura® laminate combined with 330D Nylon Mini Ripstop, the Skyweight Hip Belt delivers exceptional durability and resistance to abrasion, moisture, and wear. These materials guarantee that the belt withstands harsh environments, rugged terrain, and tough conditions without compromising performance or comfort.

The padded construction, featuring closed-cell foam and stretch woven backing, enhances comfort by cushioning your hips and minimizing pressure points. This padding also helps reduce heat buildup and sweat, keeping you cooler and more comfortable during extended use. Despite this added cushioning, the belt remains lightweight at only 219 grams, striking an excellent balance between support and mobility.

One of the standout features is the quick-release, glove-friendly Duraflex buckle with an intuitive pull-forward adjustment system. This allows for rapid, hassle-free adjustments on the move, even when wearing gloves. Whether you need to tighten the belt for a snug fit or loosen it for quick removal, this buckle design makes it easy and efficient. This is especially crucial during high-stress or time-sensitive situations.

The belt’s Tac-LAM laser-cut MOLLE platform offers a versatile and secure attachment system for modular pouches, tools, or other accessories. This laser-cut system provides a clean, streamlined look while reducing weight compared to traditional stitched MOLLE. Gear mounting and reconfiguration can be done swiftly, giving users the flexibility to customize their setup to their specific needs.

The Skyweight Hip Belt is designed to fit waist sizes from 31 to 47 inches, making it suitable for a wide range of users. Its sage green color complements tactical and outdoor gear, providing a low-profile, professional appearance.

As part of the 5.11 Tactical family, this hip belt carries forward the company’s legacy of innovation and reliability. Since its founding, 5.11 Tactical has been committed to supporting law enforcement, military personnel, and first responders with gear designed for real-world challenges. The company’s origin story begins with a pair of pants adopted by the FBI Training Academy in 1992, setting a high standard for performance and quality that continues to this day.

In summary, the 5.11 Tactical Skyweight Hip Belt (Sage Green, L/XL) is a high-performance, ergonomic, and durable hip belt designed to maximize comfort and efficiency.
