M.A.L.I.C.E. draws inspiration from the A.L.I.C.E. system —
All-Purpose Lightweight Individual Carrying Equipment
— first developed by the U.S. Army and issued from 1973 onwards. Originally designed to reduce a soldier’s overall load, A.L.I.C.E. marked a pivotal shift in military gear, replacing traditional canvas with full nylon for durability and lightweight performance.
Developed by Natick Labs, the system included modular backpacks, vests, and belts with webbing, allowing pouches and compartments to be added, removed, or repositioned with ease. Quick-release buckles — a first in U.S. military equipment — enabled fast adaptability in the field, while multiple pockets accommodated all types of cargo, from ammunition to essentials. Its nylon-and-metal prototypes, tested during the Vietnam War, laid the foundation for the fully nylon, fully modular A.L.I.C.E. system.
