Field Pockets are created to isolate your gear from the main part of your rucksack or any bag. They lay flat and have zippers parallel in the center of the depth of the pocket. They can also be used outside of the bag as a first aid kit, so your other stuff won’t spill everywhere when you pull your field pocket.

Field Pockets can be attached to the internal MOLLE or the external front MOLLE on GORUCK bags. Though you can pack your clothes in them, Field Pockets are not packing cubes for clothes as they are padded and provides added bulk to the bag. And like GORUCK bags, they also don’t come lightweight.
