High quality, makes it mobile hunting easy

The platform pocket is suited for the vast majority of hunts in my opinion. Full MOLLE webbing is perfect for customization. I added a single Operator Pouch for necessities. I appreciate the extra loops sewn into the seams for optional strap configurations as well.

Shortfalls:
The pocket is too tight on the platform: The platform takes a good bit of effort and some side to side finagling to insert. It requires equal effort to remove. This is a little more difficult if you are wearing gloves. Not what you want to deal with while hanging in the tree. Fixing this, I would give 4 stars.
As noted by others, the shoulder straps can be improved: The 1" straps fit the minimalist design, but they dig in with the weight of the platform.
Suggestions:
A removable top flap would be appreciated: I'm considering cutting it off. Together with the tightness of the pouch, I have to take off the pack when climbing a tree to remove the platform. I was hoping to add a pull strap to the platform allowing me to pull the platform out of the pouch while it was still on my back for a seamless climbing process.
The storage straps could be removable: The straps could be attached straight to the extra loops on the bottom of the pocket.

I run this pocket with the profile platform 1.0 and a 3 SS sticks and it’s the most mobile setup you’ll find. I run dump pouches on my saddle, but if you decided to take weight off your saddle you can easily put dump pouches on the pocket. 10/10 would recommend.

I love this thing I can throw larger xop platform in it my 30’ rope my quiver
Attach my sticks and my knee pads to my sticks hook my saddle to it if I don’t want to wear it in or out I just loop it over the cleat of the platform and go

I ran the Ranger 22 pack this year which significantly contributed to my gear management system, due to size and functionality. It worked good and I was using the detachable/adjustable compression pocket on the back of the pack to hold both my platform and sticks tight to the backpack. While this worked, I wanted a more efficient way of attaching my platform and sticks to my pack. This profile pocket had the features I was looking for. The way it attaches to the Ranger pack(s) is simple, has the non-fiddle factor, and has plenty of adjustments. What put me over the top with this pocket was the fact I could attach my sticks to the outside of the pocket. I can easily attach 4 Latitude sticks without any issues. While I just received it (2/25), I have worn it around with sticks attached and it still carries easily and comfortably. I can also easily access the backpack and carry extra clothing without stuff getting in the way.

2024 was my first season where I heavily used a saddle. I bought a Trophyline setup off Marketplace and quickly found out why higher end products work better. I’m not a fan of aiders, so I like a 4 stick configuration to get height. The aluminum sticks and massive saddle I had was quite heavy and clinky. There’s ZERO chance of setting up quietly for a morning hunt. I knew I’d have to change my equipment because while the current setup was somewhat comfortable (big straps between the legs get uncomfortable after a few hours) it was a sweat fest getting up and down trees. Enter Latitude’s Method 2 XL, Profile platform, Carbon SS sticks, Profile Pocket (added after season). Holy night and day difference!!!! Everything is so lightweight, you don’t even really know you have it on. It literally cut my pack weight in half. The sticks weigh nothing and are quiet. I can’t tell you how much nicer it is to not worry about cam buckles!! The profile platform is so small that it fit inside my pack easily enough, but the profile pocket on the outside is so cool because now I can pack layers inside my pack that’ll keep me in the tree longer. Latitude saddles and equipment is so well thought out, comfortable and lightweight, you can buy with confidence!! For reference, I’m 6’2” 245# & all day sits are no problem with my Latitude setup.

Tight fit for platform but great quality and

Good quality. A little tight to get platform in and out but I'm sure it will loosen up and be perfect!

I got the Profile Pocket XL for a different brand platform. It’s not a perfect fit which I expected, but it works well. My sticks are easily held as well. Latitude makes some great gear. Thanks

Great product! Used it this weekend to attach ss sticks and my platform. This company continues to produce some hunter focused products. This pack is perfect if you are a mobile hunter and want to travel as light as possible.

Works great for an early year pack in. Not having to worry about packing extra clothes and just the essentials. Looking forwards to seeing how it works during the winter

Product works great . Hold your sticks and platform steady and into position. Is the perfect size , great thing profile . That allows you to go through thick areas , without getting caught up or snagged .

The profile pocket is too small to comfortably fit the Profile platform. It takes a good amount pushing, pulling and tugging just to get it in far enough to halfway close the top. The stand is nice and roomy but don't plan on being quiet getting the stand back into the Profile Pocket

Very well constructed. And I love the minimalist concept of this pack. The platform fits inside very tightly, almost a bit too tight, but I’m hoping it will break in some with use. Great product.

Attaches perfect to my ranger pack.

Works just fine with or out a pack very easily go's on your pack with a few buckles

Just a pouch for your platform to go in.

I like the pocket better than what came with my pack. Works perfect for saddle hunting.

Outstanding quality and versatility

Perfect addition to my saddle set up

Compact and easy to use. The stick holders are definitely a plus. Must have for any saddle hunter.

It was real a tight fit at first so I left my platform in it for a few days and now its perfect.

Great minimalist pack

Will be great for quick sits especially like all the molle attachment points only thing that would make it better is nicer straps

Would be 5 star but it needs padded shoulder straps

Great product
