S&S Precision is working on prototypes of a plate sock for users of their Plate Frame. It uses a 4-way stretch fabric to cover the plate providing camouflage and some environmental protection for the plate’s strike face. It also provides some space on the rear for additional enhancements to be announced at a later date.
Look for a final version soon.

See them in SHOT Show booth #8206.

The S&S Plate Carrier is unlike anything you have ever seen and it is going to change the way that you look at armor carriers…forever. S&S Precision applies real world experience to their designs. The Plate Frame is so elegant in its simplicity that you will wonder why no one has done it before. Its sleek, skeletonized frame grasps your plate with no excess material, yet offers a rigid mounting platform for accessory pouches. Weighing a scant, 1 lb 6 oz, you only carry what you need.
