Is there a pouch in the "red circle", where you can slip the belt through? Like the green Kifaru pack.

I was going to order it right now, but came home and saw your post, which states the opposite of what they said. When I called and asked them if it had a sternum and waist strap, she said, no to sternum and yes to waist. Now their office is closed and won't open until Monday so I can't call back and confirm with them. Sucks, because I was ready to order. I hope they don't sell out over the weekend...

Right now the TAD Gear Fast Pack EDC (only Coyote Brown) is on clearance for $185 and I could pick it up since I don't live to far away, but I'm liking the Battlelab better.
