Review summary
Soft-flask-style pole quiver add-on for Salomon race vests and trail packs — carry collapsed poles on the harness without stuffing them through rear loops on every climb. Here's a practical take on the Salomon Custom Quiver — what it's for, who it suits, and when to pick something else. I'd shortlist it if you want clean on-the-move pole stow for Salomon vest users, lighter and simpler than carrying a dedicated alpine pack just for poles or pairs with ADV Skin / XA when race-vest loops feel fiddly. Skip it if salomon-ecosystem focused — not a universal quiver for every vest or adds harness bulk on hot road days when poles stay home is most of your week.
Modular pole quiver add-on for Salomon vests and packs. I'd shortlist it when you want secure pole carry without jumping vest size. Skip it if you already have built-in Z-pole sleeves you prefer.
The bottom line

I'd shortlist it when you want secure pole carry without jumping vest size.
Skip it if you already have built-in Z-pole sleeves you prefer.
Bottom line: Modular pole quiver add-on for Salomon vests and packs. I'd shortlist it when you want secure pole carry without jumping vest size. Skip it if you already have built-in Z-pole sleeves you prefer.
Key specs
Here are the numbers that matter for the Salomon Custom Quiver:
• Accessory: pole quiver • Compatibility: Salomon vest/pack mounts • Role: trail poles on mountain days
Treat specs as filters for capacity, fit, battery, waterproofing and construction — not the whole buying story. Try before you commit when you can, or buy somewhere returns are easy.
Where it is strongest
I'd buy the Salomon Custom Quiver when these outcomes match what you need most weeks:
What it does well • Adds pole security to Salomon vest ecosystems • Modular — add only when mountain days need it • Lighter than upsizing to a full alpine pack
The standout is adds pole security to salomon vest ecosystems. If that is your main weekly need, keep going. If not, check trade-offs and alternatives.
Trade-offs & limits
The Salomon Custom Quiver is not trying to do every job. These are the compromises to weigh:
• Salomon-ecosystem focused • Extra attachment can bounce if poorly mounted
Skip it if: You need to avoid you already have built-in Z-pole sleeves you prefer.
Those limits matter when they hit your primary sessions — not when they only show up once a month.
Who it is for
I'd buy the Salomon Custom Quiver when most of your weekly sessions match what it does well.
Best when you want • You want secure pole carry without jumping vest size as a weekly priority — that is the Salomon Custom Quiver's main job • Most of your sessions line up with Modular pole quiver add-on for Salomon vests and packs more than an adjacent specialty role • You specifically need adds pole security to salomon vest ecosystems more than a generic category pick
Look elsewhere when • You need to avoid you already have built-in Z-pole sleeves you prefer — forcing the Salomon Custom Quiver into that job usually disappoints • Your must-haves conflict with a Salomon Custom Quiver trade-off: Salomon-ecosystem focused • Your fit, carry, or awareness needs sit outside what this product was built to do
Value
You are mainly paying for secure pole carry without jumping vest size.
You are also accepting you already have built-in Z-pole sleeves you prefer — fine when that is not your weekly mix.
Check live street price in the offers module. I'd pay the premium when the role is clear; otherwise compare the linked alternatives.
