So far the lightest side pockets of about 1 liter size I've found are Granite Gears' pockets.
Dueter makes some that look heavier and similar to Lowe Alpine's "Universal Side Pockets".
Anyone know of any others out there short of having Chris Zimmer make me some?
Gossamer Gear makes a .8L side pocket that weighs .78 ounces
MLD makes one size of "Pack Pockets" that is 48ci at .999 ounces.
ZPacks makes a "Belt Pouch" about 1L weighing at .75 ounces.
Hope that helps!
I've sewn my own belt pockets. One for a water bottle came in at 0.4 ounce. A squarish one came in at 0.8 ounce. I use spinnaker fabric and/or thin mesh.

I'll look at the Gossamer Gear and MLD pockets.
I have a Seek Outside silnylon "wet rib" for the front. I was told I got the last one and they won't make any more. Too bad B/C it's a very nice item. Like Dana's old Wet Rib but far lighter.
And as Bob suggests I could sew my own. Did it once before "back in the day" with a Frostline backpack kit. (Remember them?)
If I do I'll use Dyneema cloth.
