Qore Performance Launches All-New IceVents Classic Chest Rig Ventilation Pads

Tuesday, March 23rd, 2021

Sterling, VA: Driven by their insatiable desire to liberate humans from environmental constraints by focusing on thermoregulation, Qore Performance, Inc., is excited to launch their all-new IceVents Classic Chest Rig Ventilation Pads. Featuring a permanently bonded hook-receptive loop backing, IceVents Classic Chest Rig Ventilation Pads continue the expansion of the IceVents line started last week with the launch of the updated IceVents Classic Pontoons for plate carrier ventilation and IceVents Classic AVS Harness Pad Set upgrades. Combined, these new members of their cutting-edge and patented IceVents family of ultralight ventilated load-bearing pads advance the Qore Performance vision for Building a Superhuman Future.

“Twenty twenty-one is going to be a huge year for us,” says Justin Li, Qore Performance Co-Founder and CEO, “with our IceVents line expanding to include our IceVents Classic AVS Harness Pad Set, updated IceVents Classic Pontoons and now the IceVents Classic Chest Rig Ventilation Pads. We have a few more big releases planned for this year including our IceVents Insoles, all-new IceCase EXO iPad Cooling Case with App, IceVest HiVis, and much more. We can’t wait to share these new solutions with all of our community of military, law enforcement and occupational safety customers.”

The Qore Performance IceVents Classic Chest Rig Ventilation Pads are all-new for 2021. Using their permanently bonded hook-receptive loop backing, they provide stand-off ventilation and padding to any hook-backed chest rig on the market today. Stand-off ventilation behind chest rigs promotes evaporative cooling to improve human physiological performance by reducing sweat build-up and absorption, keeping users drier, lighter, and safer on the job.

IceVents Classic Chest Rig Ventilation Pads feature all of the same technology that have made IceVents Classic and IceVents Aero the standard for best-in-class plate carrier ventilation, rendering conventional materials like spacer mesh and foam completely obsolete:

– 90% air by volume
– Omni-directional venting keeps you dry and comfortable
– Hydrolysis Resistance: does not retain water
– Plush hexagonal honeycomb for unmatched load-bearing comfort
– Load distribution architecture that outperforms conventional materials like spacer mesh and foam, reducing fatigue
– Anti-microbial at the molecular level
– Abrasion resistant
– Washable (if needed)
– Stimulates superficial blood flow to improve circulation
– Stimulite honeycomb TPE technology
– Operating Temperature Range: -40 to 198 degrees Fahrenheit
– Dimensions: 10.25″ x 3.125″ x 0.25″

As the inventors of specialized and consumable thermoregulation for PPE users, Qore Performance is leading the fight to eliminate preventable heat injuries. Bridging the gap between Man and Machine, their IceAge Ecosystem protects over 20,000 daily active users in occupational safety alone. Dozens of America’s Fortune 1000 companies including Boeing, Dutch Bros Coffee, Charlotte Area Transit System, America’s Chicken, and Marathon Petroleum, depend on Qore Performance to safeguard their teams and their bottom lines. Qore Performance safety customers have worked over 2,000,000 hours since 2017 without a single heat injury.

FROG.PRO Belt Kits

Monday, March 22nd, 2021

EVERY SITUATION DESERVES THE PROPER CONFIGURATION

FROG.PRO, with the goal of offering the public solutions aimed at a continuous improvement of the service provided, develops the new SWAT COBRA Belt Kit and TIER1 COBRA Belt Kit.

The products are designed and developed to meet the needs of both professionals and enthusiasts from every sector.

The SWAT COBRA Belt Kit is designed to offer operators employed as Quick Reaction Force an extremely light and minimal first line, ideal for operations requiring maximum agility or the use of vehicles.

The kit consists of:
• n.1 COBRA Raider Belt
• n.1 Trousers Inner Belt
• n.1 Pistol-SMG-1-EOT
• n.1 Pistol-1-VF
• n.1 Multi-1-EOT

The TIER1 COBRA Belt Kit instead will provide the operator with a first “combat proof” line, with plenty of accessories and fully modular to allow the operator to face any situation while equipped in the best possible way.

The kit consists of:
• n.1 COBRA Operator Belt
• n.1 COBRA Trousers Inner Belt
• n.1 Pistol-SMG-1-EOT
• n.1 Pistol-1-VF
• n.1 Multi-1-EOT
• n.1 Orthos Med Pouch

The AustriAlpin COBRA® D-Ring buckle boasts a breaking load of 18 kN (1835 kgf). It is in fact specifically designed to prevent accidental opening: the safety system allows opening only if not in traction and only by simultaneously pressing both release buttons.

The D-ring, with a breaking load of 22 kN (2243 kgf), can be used to attach PRLs or other accessories for rappelling or emergency.

This composition, embellished with various flagship products of the brand such as the COBRA Operator Belt and the ORTHOS Med Pouch, reflects the “must-have” of every first-line operator.

The Pistol-SMG-1-EOT and the Pistol-1-VF pouches are able to accommodate most of the gun magazines on the market but can also be used, if necessary, to carry accessories such as a CAT Tourniquet, a multi-tool or a flashlight.

The Multi-1-EOT pouch, on the other hand, is designed to carry AR-15, AR-10, SR-25, SCAR 17, AK and similar rifle magazines.

Within each of the aforementioned kits, is also provided a series of One-Wrap velcro straps that allow the operator to effectively, but at the same time easily attach each pocket to the tactical belt, enabling a both comfortable and rapid transition between various configurations.

Its design is in fact the result of a relationship of close collaboration and a continuous exchange of feedback with the Special Forces Operators from national and international units; relationships that FROG.PRO continues to pursue, recognizing their fundamental importance for the development of products always at the vanguard.

Qore Performance Launches All-new IceVents Classic Pontoons, Ventilated Harness Pad Set for Crye Precision AVS

Tuesday, March 16th, 2021

Sterling, VA: Qore Performance, the inventors of specialized and consumable thermoregulation for military and occupational safety PPE, is proud to introduce the two newest members of their cutting-edge IceVents family of ultralight ventilated load-bearing pads: IceVents Classic Pontoons and IceVents Classic Ventilated AVS Harness Pad Set.

The updated IceVents Classic Pontoons and the IceVents Classic Ventilated AVS Harness Pad Set feature a new, permanently bonded hook Velcro backing, differentiating them from regular IceVents Classic Plate Carrier Shoulder Pads. This allows IceVents Classic Pontoons and IceVents Classic Ventilated AVS Harness Pad Sets to attach directly to the hook-receptive loop liner of the AVS or any other plate carrier with internal loop fields out of the box. No modifications are required.

Configured specifically for the Crye Precision Adaptive Vest System, the IceVents Classic Ventilated AVS Harness Pad Set is a direct replacement for the stock foam pads that come with the Crye Precision AVS. Foam insulates heat while absorbing and retaining moisture. By comparison, IceVents are 90% air by volume, anti-microbial at the molecular level and do not retain water (hydrolysis resistance). Their unique Anisotropic Architecture features three different degrees of flexibility in the length, width and vertically against the surface, allowing IceVents to absorb energy or impact from different angles while contouring the body perfectly, making for the most comfortable, most capable and most advanced load bearing pads on the market today.

The IceVents Classic Pontoons and IceVents Classic Ventilated AVS Harness Pad Set both build on Qore Performance’s patented IceVents technology to enhance airflow and ventilation for plate carrier and AVS end-users. Both packages feature all of the same technology that have made IceVents Classic and IceVents Aero the standard for best-in-class plate carrier ventilation:
– 90% air by volume
– Omni-directional venting keeps you dry and comfortable
– Plush hexagonal honeycomb for unmatched load-bearing comfort
– Load distribution architecture that outperforms foams, reducing fatigue
– Anti-microbial at the molecular level
– Abrasion resistant
– Washable (if needed)
– Stimulates superficial blood flow to improve circulation
– Hydrolysis Resistance: does not retain water
– Stimulite honeycomb TPE technology
– Operating Temperature Range: -40 to 198 degrees Fahrenheit
– Dimensions: 10.25″ x 3.125″ x 0.25″

IceVents Classic Pontoons and IceVents Classic Ventilated AVS Harness Pad Sets are available now, exclusively from the Qore Performance website:
