A few people asked me about this setup at Saddlepalooza. Here are some more pictures. The Kuiu hip belt pouch slides overtop of the waist belt on the saddle. There's nothing really special about it. You could make one too out of fleece or some other fabric (the Kuiu fabric gets a little crunchy in cold weather). I bought it on Kuiu outlet, so I don't know how readily available they are anymore.
The HME utility belt is simply convenient for me. It's just a 1" strap with molded hooks that slide on, and a simple cam buckle for attachment. It's not as light or packable as amsteel, but rock solid when pulled tight. The hooks are designed very much like miniature Ameristeps plus four corners that dig into the tree more. I've created additional accessories for the 1" strap.
I removed the strap from a $12 Amazon watch and 3d printed and epoxied a little strap slot on the back. Now I have the time right in front of my face instead of digging for my phone (I don't like wearing watches on my wrist).
I also 3d printed a quiver holder for my Tightspot quiver that slides on the strap. They also make GoPro webbing mounts. Everything still packs down enough to fit in the pouch. Since the pouch is right on the front of my waistbelt, I can pull it out and attach without having to take a pack off and dig around for it, which saves a lot of time and effort.
