Savotta Varjelus Side Armour Bags Side Pocket for Ballistic Insert - M05 Finnish Woodland Camo 2 pcs
Savotta Varjelus Side Armour Bags Side Pocket for Ballistic Insert - M05 Finnish Woodland Camo 2 pcs
Set of two side pouches in M05 Finnish Woodland Camo, designed for the Varjelus vest. The design was developed for carrying FDF M17 Cut ballistic panels measuring 22.5 x 14 cm. The set includes two pouches (for the left and right side). Attachment to the cummerbund panels is done using hook-to-loop tape.
Ballistic panels are not included in the set.
durable 500D Cordura, NIR technology
The pouch is made of 500D Cordura, which stands out for its high resistance to abrasion and mechanical damage. The dense weave of the material increases durability and reduces susceptibility to tearing during intensive use. The fabric structure also makes cleaning easier and limits moisture absorption, which matters during operations in changing weather conditions. The part that rests against the body is made of Cordura Comfort, which improves wearing comfort and reduces the risk of irritation during prolonged use. NIR technology (Near Infrared Reflectance) reduces detectability by residual light amplifiers (night vision devices).
Compatibility with ballistic inserts
The pouches are adapted for carrying soft FDF M17 cut ballistic panels measuring 22.5 × 14 cm and with an NIJ IIIA protection rating. In addition, they are equipped with special openings for routing wires. This solution makes it easier to organise cables from communication systems, electronic devices, and other equipment mounted on the vest.
Hook-to-loop system
The hook-to-loop attachment system allows the pouch to be securely fastened to the cummerbund belt of the Varjelus vest. This solution makes it easier to match the side protection to an individual equipment configuration and also allows the pouch to be quickly detached when needed.

M05 camouflage
The M05 (Finnish: M05 Maastokuvio) camouflage is a family of pixelated camouflage patterns introduced into the Finnish Armed Forces in 2005 as the successor to the M91 pattern. The pattern was developed based on digital analysis of photographs of Finnish forests taken in different seasons by the Finnish Forest Research Institute. The M05 family includes several variants, including woodland, snow, and cold weather.
The basic woodland variant of M05 is based on patches in light green, dark green, brown, and dark graphite, effectively reproducing the structure of Finnish forests. Due to similar vegetation and terrain conditions, M05 Woodland camouflage also works well in the forests of Central and Eastern Europe, providing effective concealment in natural surroundings.
