Clearance items are functional but may have minor cosmetic flaws or be older designs/generations. These are sold as-is and limited in quantity. All sales are final.
The Hilo Low Profile Plate Carrier is a quick deployment minimal plate carrier with a low profile at an affordable price.  Each carrier front plate bag features a built in top admin pouch, a large loop area which has support for SwiftClip/QASM) buckles on either end as well as a large loop field on the bottom. For even lower profile you can easily remove the SwiftClip buckles for total concealment.
The back panel features loop on the top and bottom. Both field of loops on bottom are meant to support any cummerbund that works via a Velcro attachment system like our Elastic Cummerbund.
Both front and back panels feature airflow padding for bodyside cooling.
The shoulders feature a unique adjustability system that helps you remember sizing using a built in notch system. The shoulders attach by sliding in and securing via a hook and loop system. To aid in the setup we include a tool so that your strap doesn't get attached during sizing.
Inside the plate pocket is an adjustment strap to let you adjust how high or low the plate rides in the carrier.
