Excellent Backpack Upgrade
Bought the 3V Gear padded hip belt to upgrade an excellent backpack with an uncomfortable 1 inch wide web hip belt. The upgrade was simple, remove the existing belt and clip the 3V Gear padded hip belt to the backpack's existing attachment points. The 3V Gear padded hip belt is pricey but provides a comfortable and stable ride for the backpack. Would buy again.

Doesn't fit Paratus
I ordered this to go on the Paratus. It was linked by 3V to my question on the Paratus page about where can I get a padded hip belt for the Paratus. Please tell me how I'm supposed to attach this belt to the Paratus

Great hip belt additions!!!
I purchased an OD green and Black hip belt and put them on my two Goruck Ruckers. They work great. Easy to take on and off. The Goruck hip belts are never in stock and cost 3x as much. Great additions and I highly recommend.

Good piece of gear
The belt not only fits 3V Gear but any bag with loops that accept gatekeepers.

Saved my shoulders and neck!
After murdering several backpacks by overloading them and eventually stressing the strap stitching over a couple seasons, I decided to get a pack that could stand up to my requirements. As part of a K9 SAR team I don't need to pack for week but I do need to pack for 24 hours of "anything might happen". So I carry heavy but it's necessary. I bought a 5.11 Tactical "All Hazards Prime Backpack 29L". Great pack, holds all my stuff, yay. Fast forward a couple seasons, I'm no longer hitting the gym regularly and I realize I can't just muscle thru wearing a pack with no hip belt. I checked the 5.11 Tactical website and... no belts available. Fine. Some internet searching later and I found the 3V Gear website and they have exactly what I need. Ordered it and it arrived at my house sooner than expected. The padded belt connects to the 2 inch webbing loops fine (after pushing the tri-glide slide out of the way) and is accurately sized. Best of all, I took it for a fully loaded test hike and life was so much nicer with much of the packs weight distributed to my hips. Thanks 3V Gear for saving me from having to buy a whole new pack!
