The K5 Plate Carrier is the most comfortable Plate Carrier on the market. Lightweight, durable and proven by SOF around the world, the K5 doesn’t skimp on shoulder or bottom plate padding like many plate carriers, so it stays comfortable during prolonged use. We know that missions or training exercises are rarely “fast and dirty”, which is why comfort throughout the days and nights in your board carrier is crucial.
The K5 comes standard with the Agilite Stretch tummy strap so your vest can be pulled nice and tight so it doesn’t bounce while running, but the stretch element gives you the inches or so you need when you fall on your knee. the carrier does not crush your torso.
The K5 design is unique in that the shoulder straps create a conciliatory “V” shape relative to the mass, dividing the weight over the maximum surface and illuminating pressure points.
The K5 has a number of subtle but crucial features that make it better than other providers, including the ability to connect the AMAP II or AMAP 30 Assault packs directly to it in seconds. No getting MOLLE, no hassle.
