Radio Pouches
Radio Pouch / UHF holster – Solid Leather, Shoulder Style
$198.00A Kent Saddlery unique and practical Shoulder Style Radio Pouch is usually strapped to the right shoulder. When riding a bike or four wheeler the left hand is then free to access the radio controls. If preferred, left shoulder pouches are also available.
The radio fits securely into the custom designed pouch, which guarantees effective communication and eliminates the need to remove the radio from the pouch. The leather shoulder strap features 14 ventilation holes and distinctive stainless steel victoria roller buckles allow the sturdy PVC straps to be adjusted to length.

**WEBBING ‘DOOVALACKY’ PULLER
Many workers on cattle stations strap on their radio pouch first thing in the morning and don’t take it off until they have a shower at night. Each radio needs to be charged overnight and without the “Doovalacky” puller, radios are frequently pulled out of pouches by the aerial, and there’s a strong risk that the aerial can be pulled right off!
Some years ago, (Don’t ask how many!) Neville Dahl of Sophie Downs Station, WA, recognised the problem and suggested that we should attach a piece of leather lace across the bottom of the pouch and reaching to the top. When pulled from the top the radio would then ‘pop out’ of the pouch. We took Neville’s great idea, modified it a bit and now on all Kent Saddlery Radio Pouches it’s a standard feature.
