I've worn the Ridgeline 2.0 hunting elk in Colorado and on long-haul rides β€” it sits flat under my pack straps and pulls clean every time. The only chest rig I'll trust in the backcountry.

  • Pack-Compatible

    Sits clean under backpack straps and hip belts β€” no fighting your gear.

  • All-Day Comfort

    Wide 2" straps spread weight across both shoulders. No hotspots, no back pain.

  • Adjustable Retention

    Tune your draw to a clean audible click β€” secure, but never slow.

  • Chest-Level Access

    Your hand falls naturally on the grip. Faster than fighting a buried hip rig.

    CARRY WHERE THE BELT WON'T REACH

    Your belt is already loaded with a pack hip belt, a tool belt, or layered under winter gear β€” and the holster you trust at home gets in the way. The Ridgeline 2.0 moves the gun up to your chest where it's actually accessible: under a jacket, over a shirt, beside a backpack strap. Wide 2" straps pull the weight off your hip and spread it across both shoulders, so you can hike all day, ride all afternoon, or drive cross-country without the holster fighting you.

    READY WHEN IT MATTERS

    Chest-Level Access In One Clean Motion

    When the belt is buried under a backpack, a coat, or a seatbelt, hip carry doesn't draw. The Ridgeline 2.0 rides at chest level β€” your hand falls naturally on the grip, and the adjustable retention pulls clean every time. Designed for people who actually carry in the field, not just on the range. See it in action below.

    Veteran Owned, Family Built, And Purpose Driven.

    In 2015, Kevin and his sons, Mike and Musk, moved to Chicago, where protecting his family became essential. Frustrated with bulky holsters, he began modifying and eventually building his own β€” leading to the breakout channel for lightning-fast draw speeds. The design quickly gained popularity locally.

    Now, over 10 years later, SouthEDC remains proudly veteran-owned and family-operated, handcrafting premium holsters in Greensboro, North Carolina.

    • Quiet Hardware

      Premium connection points won't squeak, creak, or give away your position in the field.

    • Custom-Fit Shell

      Molded for your firearm β€” no loose fitment, no rattle, no print under a jacket.

    • Ambidextrous

      Switch from right to left-hand draw without buying a second rig.

      • Built Tough

        Premium nylon, weather-resistant hardware, and a shell that won't crack β€” backed for life.

      • Universal Harness

        Adjusts from a 35" chest to a 55"+ frame. One harness fits the whole household.

      • Backpack-Ready

        Designed around modern packs β€” works with the hip belt, not against it.

        • "Doesn't fight my backpack"

          I've worn this on every hunt this season β€” sits flat under my pack hip belt, doesn't print under my puffy, and the draw is clean every time. Best chest rig I've owned.

          Travis K.

        • "Comfortable enough I forget I'm wearing it"

          I ride a side-by-side a lot and the belt holster was driving me crazy bouncing around. Ridgeline rides chest-level, doesn't move, doesn't squeak. Did 8 hours yesterday and barely noticed it.

          Marcus L.

        • Perfect for layering season.

          Got this for winter carry when my belt is buried under a coat. Pulls cleanly under a zip-up sweater and the straps are wide enough that I'm not getting shoulder pinch after a long day. Already telling my buddies.

          FAQ'S

          check

          Will the Ridgeline 2.0 work with a backpack or hip belt?

          Yes. The Ridgeline 2.0 was designed around modern pack harnesses β€” the wide 2" straps ride above your pack's hip belt and sit cleanly under shoulder straps. Hikers, hunters, and rucking carriers wear it daily without conflict.

          check

          What chest size does the harness fit?

          The harness adjusts to fit chest sizes from approximately 35" to 55" β€” one universal harness covers most adult builds. Strap your normal t-shirt size as a starting point.

          check

          Is it ambidextrous?

          Yes. The Ridgeline 2.0 ships ambidextrous out of the box β€” switch between right-hand and left-hand draw without any extra hardware or a second purchase.

          check

          Will it work under a jacket or sweatshirt?

          Yes β€” chest carry is purpose-built for layering. The Ridgeline 2.0 sits flat against your shirt and pulls cleanly under a zip-up, puffy, button-down, or jacket. Perfect for winter and shoulder-season carry.

          check

          Is it compatible with red dots, suppressor sights, or threaded barrels?

          Yes. The shell is cut to accommodate red dots, suppressor-height (taller) sights, and most flush or threaded barrels. Light-bearing setups are not currently supported.

          check

          Can I adjust the retention?

          Yes. Retention is adjustable β€” tune it tighter for active carry (riding, hunting on horseback) or looser for a faster draw at the range. Your firearm will audibly "click" into place at any setting.

          check

          Will it shift around when I'm moving?

          No. Wide 2" straps and rotating connection points keep the holster locked against your chest as you bend, twist, ride, or climb. The harness moves with you, not against you.

          check

          Can I carry while driving or seated?

          Yes β€” chest carry is one of the most comfortable seated carry options. Unlike a hip holster that digs into your side every time you sit, the Ridgeline 2.0 sits flat against your chest with full access while belted in.

          check

          How do I clean the harness?

          Hand wash the harness in warm soapy water and hang to dry. Do not machine wash. The shell wipes clean with a damp cloth β€” no special care needed.

          check

          Can I return it if it doesn't work for me?

          Yes. We offer a 30-day risk-free return policy. If the Ridgeline 2.0 doesn't meet your expectations, email support@southedc.store within 30 days of receiving it. Return the item in original condition and we'll issue a full refund on the product. Shipping costs are non-refundable.
