Helikon-Tex Competition Modular Belt Sleeve

The Competition Modular Belt Sleeve is the outer shell of Helikon-Tex's Competition Set system: a padded sleeve that fits over any shooting belt up to 45 mm wide, turning it into a tactical platform with MOLLE surfaces around the entire perimeter. It is designed for dynamic shooters who want to mount a holster, magazine pouches and accessories directly on the belt, without wearing a vest or a chest rig.

The EVA foam padding covers the entire inner surface: it buffers pressure from the buckles of the inner belt and from the edges of externally mounted pouches, making extended use during a competition or an intense training session manageable. The internal mesh lining adds breathability and reduces friction against the host belt. The contoured profile follows the shape of the hips, preventing the sleeve from rotating or shifting during rapid movements.

The MOLLE/PALS platforms are laser-cut into the front and side panels, with vertical slots between panels that allow the belt to pass through to the outside: this makes it possible to mount holsters with direct belt attachment or drop-leg panels without additional adapters. On the lower sides there are two horizontal loops dedicated to the same purpose. Four low-profile paracord loops serve as anchor points for suspenders or braces. The trade-off to bear in mind is that the MOLLE surface is optimised for the front and side panels, not the back: anyone who needs to carry accessories in the rear section as well should consider integrating a separate chest rig. It is available in four sizes: S (83.5 cm), M (91.5 cm), L (98.5 cm) and XL (106.5 cm), measured on the outer circumference of the sleeve.

Key points

• Compatible with any shooting belt up to 45 mm wide, not only with the Helikon-Tex Competition series belt.
• The EVA foam padding eliminates pressure from the edges of mounted pouches, keeping wear comfortable for the full duration of a match.
• The vertical slots between the MOLLE panels allow the belt to pass through directly, so holsters and pouches with belt attachment mount without adapters.
• The four paracord loops allow suspenders or braces to be connected, shifting the load onto the shoulders during longer sessions.
• The internal mesh lining improves breathability and stabilises the sleeve on the host belt, reducing the tendency to rotate.
• Available in four sizes from 83.5 cm to 106.5 cm to suit different builds without forced stretching or tightening.
