Bino harness with a rangefinder pouch: what to check before you buy
Most harnesses quote a price for the pack and charge again for the rangefinder pouch. That is where a $130 harness becomes a $180 one.
Start here
If you are searching for a harness with a rangefinder pouch, you have already worked out the real problem: glass and range need to come from the same place on your chest, in the same motion.
The thing worth knowing before you shop is that the pouch is usually a separate purchase, and it is usually not cheap.
The things worth checking
Use these on any brand's product, not just ours.
Is the pouch included, or quoted separately
In our July 2026 research, standalone rangefinder pouches from the premium brands ran $38.25 to $55. That is on top of a harness that already cost more than ours. Both the LT1 and the LT2 ship with a removable magnetic rangefinder pouch already attached.
Will your specific unit fit
Oversized rangefinders are the most common fit complaint in this whole category. Our included pouch takes most compact units up to 3.3" wide by 4.1" tall. If you run something larger, the $15 Universal Rangefinder Pouch has elastic sides that stretch.
Can you work it one-handed, without looking
Magnetic lids and open elastic pouches both do this. Zippers and buckles do not. On a moving animal that difference is the whole point of the pouch.
Where can it mount
Bottom-only MOLLE limits you to hanging the pouch underneath. Bottom and both sides means it rides where your draw hand goes. Ours have MOLLE on the bottom and both sides.
Can you run two
Some hunters want a rangefinder on one side and a phone, a call or bear spray on the other. That only works if the webbing is there.
The short answer
The LT2 is $75 with a removable magnetic rangefinder pouch included, MOLLE on the bottom and both sides, and StealthStalk fabric over a 500D Cordura shell.
The LT1 is $65 with the same included pouch, the same MOLLE layout and the same compartment size, plus a removable utility side pouch.
If you run an oversized rangefinder, or you want a second pouch on the opposite side, the Universal Rangefinder Pouch is $15 and mounts to either harness, to other brands' harnesses with MOLLE or PALS webbing, or to a belt.
Lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects on all of it, and 30 days of free returns on unused gear.

Questions
Does the LT1 come with a rangefinder pouch?

What size rangefinder fits the included pouch?
Most compact rangefinders up to 3.3" wide by 4.1" tall, behind a magnetic lid for quick, silent access. If you run a larger unit, check its dimensions or add the Universal Rangefinder Pouch.
Will your pouch fit another brand's harness?
Yes, as long as it has standard MOLLE or PALS webbing, or a belt to ride on.
Can I mount two pouches?
Yes. There is MOLLE on the bottom and both sides of both harnesses.
