The Proteus waistpack is a departure from the common fanny/waist pack design, having a boxy, utilitarian look to it. My initial impression of it was that it was smaller than it looked in some pictures. It's not a large or bulky waistpack, but actually quite compact (see the photo below showing it in comparison to a 1-litre Nalgene bottle). The 2" wide waistbelt can be stowed under the rear panel, which has 4 channels of PALS webbing which can be used with 3" or 6" malice clips.
Twin compression straps run under the pack to the front, and mate to a harness which forms the top carry handle. There are attach points for modular pouches on the outsides of the front and side compartments. The Proteus is built around a main compartment, with approximate dimensions of 9" x 6" x 3". It has a single mesh pocket inside it. On the front of the Proteus is a 8" x 5" x 1.5" compartment, with some flat divided pockets inside it.
There is a pen slot on each side of the front compartment. The pack is flanked on each side by two compartments that are about 5" x 3" x 2" in size. As mentioned above, I thought the main compartment was a bit small, even though it'll hold a large handgun with no problem. I tried to see what common items I could fill the Proteus with so that everyone could get an accurate idea of its capacity. Much to my surprise, I was able to stuff two GI 1-quart canteens, one on top of the other (see pic), in the main compartment. A pilot's hip flask filled up the front compartment. Each of the two side compartments could hold 2 GI M16 20-round magazines or 4 hi-cap pistol magazines Not too shabby for this little pack |
