Utility belt

Abstract

In one embodiment, a utility belt comprises a belt adapted to be worn around the waist of a wearer, and a number of belt components removably mounted on the belt. Included among the number of belt components is a flexible pouch arrangement with a number of expandable pockets having a puncture resistant interior surface. The flexible pouch arrangement can be composed of a fabric, such as a nylon mesh, coated with a puncture resistant material, such as poly-vinyl chloride, that has sufficient stiffness to retain the shape of the pouch arrangement. The flexible pouch arrangement can also include a first pocket having an outer wall and a pair of loops affixed to the wall. A detachable pocket includes a pair of pressure adherent, or Velcro, strips corresponding to the pair of loops. The detachable pocket can be removably mounted on the first pocket by engaging the Velcro strips about a corresponding one of the loops.
