The D.A.R.K. Slim in action
WHAT'S INSIDE
Everything you need. Nothing you don't.
Every D.A.R.K. Slim carries proven lifesaving supplies: a CAT Gen 7 tourniquet (or SOF-T Gen 5) in its own side pouch, hemostatic gauze, a HALO vent seal, an emergency bandage, compressed gauze, nitrile gloves, a mylar blanket, a polycarbonate eye shield, and full-size trauma shears.
Two levels match the kit to your role: Civilian covers the core components most people need, and LE/FR steps up to QuikClot Combat Gauze LE.
BUILT FOR SPEED
Tourniquet first. Always outside.
The side-mounted tourniquet pouch keeps your most time-critical tool outside the kit, and the pull handle deploys the rest in one motion. No zippers to fight, no digging when seconds matter.
TWO WAYS TO PACK
Vacuum sealed or ready access.
The vacuum-sealed insert keeps every component compressed, protected, and organized until the moment it is used. Prefer to see and reach your supplies without breaking a seal? Choose the D.A.R.K. Pouch Insert: elastic bands and red pull handles hold everything in place for unsealed, organized access.
CARRY IT ANYWHERE
Low profile. Full capability.
The Slim keeps a low profile on a plate carrier, belt, or bag. The snap-free woven webbing system mounts securely, and black pouches include a detachable belt loop for everyday carry.

What is the difference between the Vacuum Sealed and Pouch Insert options?
What is the difference between the Vacuum Sealed and Pouch Insert options?
The vacuum-sealed insert keeps contents compressed, sterile-packaged, and protected until deployed. The D.A.R.K. Pouch Insert holds the same supplies under elastic bands with red pull handles, so you can open, check, and restock the kit without breaking a seal.
How is the Slim different from the full-size D.A.R.K.?
How is the Slim different from the full-size D.A.R.K.?
Same proven core supplies in a slimmer, lower-profile pouch with a side-mounted tourniquet pouch. The full-size D.A.R.K. offers more level options. If space on your carrier or belt is tight, the Slim is the one.
Can I restock the kit after it is used?
Can I restock the kit after it is used?
Yes. The D.A.R.K. and D.A.R.K. Slim share a vacuum-sealed refill insert, so the pouch goes right back into service. And under our Kit for Life Guarantee, components used to save a life are replaced free: email info@darkangelmedical.com with your story.
How do I mount it?
How do I mount it?
