Super pleased with this product. I ordered the non-filled pouch and optional TQ dangler, as I already had all the components in my range bag IFAK, but wanted something belt mounted for my new battle belt setup. The size of this is perfect, it’s not too small which sacrafices critical items, but also not excessively bulky. It was definitely noticeable while doing drills inside of a vehicle, but not bad. Mine was packed with the exact items per the video setup instructions on the flatline youtube channel (which was also greatly appreciated). I liike that it was mounted with belt loops with optional molle for onewrap engagement/dangler options.
Additional features which were nice compared to other offerings were the shear holders. The user replaceable shot cord and one-wrap base ‘hinge’ are nice for customizing the size of the pack if you want to go below/above what’s recommended by default. Overall the construction is excellent quality, shipping was fast (and free!). Glad I found this company as I also grabbed the micro dump pouch and anticipate trying some of the other offerings since they have both been so solid.

I got the PIMP today and was very excited to try it out after seeing the YouTube video on it. I’m an active LEO and was planning on using this on my belt for warrant service. One of the things I was looking for in a IFAK was something that I could place on my 7 to 8 o’clock to keep my back clear (many back issues from military days).
Once I got a chance to play around with the PIMP I could definitely tell a lot of thought went into the design, and the craftsmanship was excellent. I liked the simple design.
Some things I found out along the way:
1. If you use the shear holder, the shears will kick out in a sense, especially at the 7 to 8 o’clock area and kinda gets in the way when in a vehicle.
2. When mounted to the right of something large like a taser, pulling the insert from the left is extremely difficult and I have to pull from the right side.
3. I wish it came with IR or reflective swatches like the YouTube video said it would.
4. The Velcro one wrap didn’t appear to be one wrap. I’m not sure what it was, but I ended up using my real one wrap to mount it on my belt.
Overall, it’s a great pouch. Unfortunately it didn’t work out for my needs. I’m hoping Flatline will come out with a vertical pouch one day. Unfortunately since I mounted this on my belt, I can’t return it due to their policy. I’ll have to give it away or try to sell it now.

Thank you for the review, Michael. Thank you for addressing some things. The one wrap that is included is not 3M branded one wrap, but we have found it to be just as strong as the 3m stuff. The way it functions is exactly the same. I’m not sure where the confusion came in with the patch inserts. It is not stated that it will come with it in the YouTube video or in the product description. If the pouch is still in new condition, you can absolutely still return it. Just fill out the form under returns and we will get you taken care of. Thank you.

Purchased the PIMP Mead pouch along with TK holder. I have been looking around for a smaller med pouch for a while. Saw a review from Achilles Heel and thought I would give it a try and support a small American business. Good quality, nicely made and seems to be durable. I like the minimalist design to keep everything out of the way, but still completely accessible in the 6 o’ clock position.
Chad Smith –
Thank you!

After seeing Chad and Jon develop the PIMP and seeing it as a lower profile and compact solution, I had to get one.
Quality is top notch, as with any flatline product. The little retention feature for shears is super helpful and keeps them away from any gauze or chest seals inside the pouch. It mounted easy, and is now my preferred solution for a belt mounted IFAK. The videos posted on the flatline YouTube are super helpful in showing various ways to set it up.
Chad Smith –
Thank you Cory! We appreciate the support!

I’m impressed with the craftsmanship of this medical kit. I love that it was a one stop shop for the soft goods AND the necessary contents. I prefer the CAT TQ and it was included down to the sharpie I’ll use to notate the time. The install was easy. I just went along with the video on YouTube. Great product, great service. Keep up the good work folks!
Chad Smith –
Thank you Sir!

Overall quality/craftsmanship of your items:
Superb ! I ordered the PIMP bad the mini dump pouch and these babies are solid ! Well thought out and constructed using modern materials and stitched together with stress points reinforced.
• Your customer service experience:
Customer service is quick to respond, addresses your concern and is very friendly.
• Did your product(s) function as advertised:
Functioned as advertised, even better actually. The PIMP is better than most other adjustable width IFAKs AND bi-directional pull IFAKs.
• Were your expectations for the product met:
Not only let but exceeded. As a combat medic, the PIMP allows members of my team to expand the items they need to treat the immediate life threats without space wasted for less critical items.
• Would you recommend to others:
Absolutely! I have already 🙂
Chad Smith –
Thank you Keegan! I appreciate the full review!

Wear it daily at about the 6ish position and it works out nicely. Almost like a little lumbar support. Kit is well made and the design is simple but effective. I’ve recommended it to multiple people at my department and I’ve already seen a few guys wearing it on their kit.
Chad Smith –
Thank you Will!

Could not be happier with the PIMP. It’s the best belt mounted med pouch I’ve encountered, and I’ve tried a lot. It’s extremely well thought out, fits all the needed contents, but still provides a small package with easy deployment. The versatility of attachment methods should be standard on all pouches of these types. The one wrap is the best option for me, but it’s great that it comes with molle and pass-throughs. Great work on this.
Chad Smith –
Thank you Jeffrey!

This is probably the 3rd item I’ve ordered from Flatline Fiber and I couldn’t be happier about the quality or price. I’m excited to see what they come out with next!

Great product. I’m super impressed. Guality/craftsmanship is second to none as is to be expected with all of FFC’s stuff. The functionality is exactly what I was wanting. This thing holds everything you need with minimal bulk and doesn’t leave you fumbling with awkward zippers or Velcro. My favorite feature is the trauma shears pouch. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a trauma kit for their gear.
Chad Smith –
Thank you Mitch!

So I’ve been a fanboy of Flatline Fiber for a while, but was content with the kit I had set up a few years ago. As things began to age, things began to fail. I’m not always in my ‘safe space’ so medical equipment gets used regularly. Until it wasn’t there. Somewhere along the way, my IFAK had ‘left the chat’ without telling me. Naturally, it was needed while it was AWOL.
So I acquired a PIMP and learned how much of my kit was a compromise. Now I’m in the process of upgrading, why? Because FLF has taken kit development in the right direction.
No compromises.
Well done

I’ve had the PIMP for a few weeks. I’m active LEO and have it mounted to the back of my SWAT belt. Super happy with the quality and overall size when it’s filled with my ifak guts. The shear pouch is a cool idea but I’m currently not using it. I also ordered the tq holder which goes along with PIMP perfectly. Pulling the pouch out takes some getting used to, but finding the right retention is also key (retention system is well thought out). Overall I love it and will definitely recommend it.
Chad Smith –
Thank you Sean!

PIMP is an awesome small footprint IFAK at a great price. I’ve been using both the rip stop and Cordura dump pouches for a year, so was excited to get my hands on this IFAK.
I carry a mini-Halo chest seal, NAR compressed gauze and 4” Izzy. Takes a little bit to find the right fit, but I got it in there and it is all secure.
I wanted mine vertical instead of horizontal, so I used One-Wrap to rig this up. The IFAK isn’t as tight to my belt as I would like, but it has not come loose and everything is still accessible. This also solves the problem of shears poking out to the side, now they can poke my ribs. Maybe the second generation will have laser cuts to give that option.
It has been through a bunch of training and everything stays in place and is comfortable. A bit of Cyflect tape and the cross now reflects and glows.
Excellent product.

Thank you for the review Ian!

I’ve used different med pouches throughout the years and this one overall meets my needs the best. Having a very compact design while being able to hold everything that I personally feel is necessary in an IFAK as well as the ability to store shears makes it one the more superior med pouches out in the market.
Chad Smith –
Thank you for the review!
Austin (verified owner) –
Absolutely top notch IFAK. The thought process, care, and attention to detail that went into this pouch is very much appreciated. Build quality is excellent as is anything that Flatline produces. Hard to beat the value you get out of purchasing with the TQ dangler and medical supplies. Will definitely be buying another 2 or 3 to stay in a vehicle or two or put in/on a backpack.
Now if I could just convince them to make a Flecktarn one lol.
Chad Smith –
Thank you for the review! If it was that easy to get Flecktarn squadron the absolutely would!

Originally ordered but when received some items were missing, however, immediately after letting the company know about it, they sent the items that were missing and I can’t say enough good things how awesome that customer service is!
Regarding the product, I’ve served all over the world, literally, and can say this product is something I would use in any clime and place. Highly recommend!
Chad Smith –
Thank you for the review! My apologies for the missing items. Glad we got you taken care of. Be safe!

Great product. Wanted a slimmer profile IFAK for my belt to replace my LTC IFAK. Has all the essential items and they all store nice and tight.

Excellent profile and fit! Customer support is very responsive when you need them as well! I only wish there was a decompression needle in included, but that’s an easy fix with amazon. 9/10
Chad Smith –
Thanks Austen! We do not advocate anyone other than trained professionals using decompression needles, so they are not included. Like you said though it is an easy thing to add if you have the skillset. Although I would purchase it from a reputable source.
Thank you

Bought this med pouch for my SRT call out set-up, to free up space in other pouches on my plate carrier. I looked at a lot of similar med kits that are available and I’m so impressed with the value/quality of this one. It’s definitely one of the best bang for your buck products. Easy to use, easy to deploy, so far has held up to the abuse. Medical gear is never cheap, but something that can save your life probably shouldn’t be. This gives you the best of everything in such a convenient simple design. Well done flatline fiber co.

Very well made and easy to set up. I needed an IFAK for my belt that was low profile, light and carries just the essentials to treat a trauma wound.

Thank you!

I ordered the multicam black pouch, and it’s exactly what I was looking for; durable feel and quality build, plus it’s very slim when you really squeeze your contents down, compared to some other options out there.
Would buy again if needed!

Thank Johnnie!

Ranger Green – Shipped well before the estimated lead-time. I was surprised and happy to see it come faster than expected. I have it fitted to my Ronin Tactics Task Force Belt via one wrap and it’s really nice. I use the shears holder as well to make pulling medical out real easy. Very satisfied!
Chad Smith –
Happy to hear! Thank you for the support man!

Extremely impressed with quality and size! Contents I was able to fit: (2) needle D
(1) NPA w/ lube
(5) SM bandaids
(3) LG bandaid
(1) MIST report
(1) sharpie
(2) gloves
(1) roll duct tape
(1) quick clot combat gauze XL
(1) chest seal
(1) NAR Compressed gauze
(1) tourniquet
Recommend adding elastic to the shear strap as it was a little short, due to how many contents I was able to fit inside!
Thanks again & I will now shop here for life!
