Editing MOLLE (section)

=== Terminology ===
The term 'MOLLE' technically only applies to the individual equipment system (manufactured by Specialty Defense Systems) rather than the PALS ([[Pouch Attachment Ladder System]]) webbing that it utilizes. Despite that, 'MOLLE' is often casually used to describe any load bearing system or component in general that utilizes the woven PALS webbing.

Although PALS was proprietary to [[Natick Labs]] from 1998 to 2016,<ref name=":1" /> most in the contracting and commercial industry of individual equipment had used and continue to use the terms 'MOLLE' and 'PALS' interchangeably.{{Citation needed|date=May 2025}}
