FirstSpear Friday Focus – Padded Plate Backer

Friday, December 8th, 2023

The Padded Plate Backer Kit provides comfort by utilizing non-ballistic foam inserts that contour to your body. They are designed to reduce pressure points while maintaining the plate carrier’s shape. Additionally, these foam inserts can be configured multiple ways to fit your specific needs. Whether you need more support in certain areas or a different fit altogether, this kit has you covered.

Not only does this kit offer increased comfort, but it also features channels on the body side for better ventilation and shock absorption. This added feature provides air flow to the carrier, reducing heat buildup and increasing breathability. The shock absorber function works to disperse energy from impact, minimizing the damage to your body.

One of the best aspects of the Padded Plate Backer is its minimal weight and bulk. The foam inserts do not weigh down your carrier and they do not add unnecessary bulk. With a weight of only 13oz, this kit is perfect for those who are always on the go. The lightweight design allows you to move freely and with ease, while the foam inserts provide the necessary support.

Another advantage is ts durability. The non-ballistic foam inserts are made to last, so you can trust them to withstand harsh conditions and heavy use. These inserts are also water-resistant, protecting against moisture buildup which can lead to mold and foul odors.
