The Raide Research FAR Clamshell is a light organizer pouch for first aid and repair kits, developed with Pioneer Carry. It opens flat like a clamshell so you can see everything at once. It is sold empty.

What it's for

FAR stands for first aid and repair. In the backcountry those kits need to be found and opened fast, often with gloves on. This pouch gives each item a place, with a wide mouth opening so nothing is buried. Raide's view is that organization matters as much as saving weight.
