Their inner belt and mag pouches are 2nd to none. Yet Ciguera gear inner belt is right there with it, not the coolest but it just works

How would you define and measure “felt weight” consistently and reliably?

Go learn imperial buddy. It's a different world out there.

I understand maybe wanting it so it cools for the exo plates or whatever but that would make that it a pretty biased test along with berry compliance I understand its not made in the USA yada yada i dont really care as long as the qc is good and i get the quality i expect which in pretty sure agilite delivers on

No, it doesn’t work that way because of the armor itself. Thermal Transmittance is most important for the body-facing side of the plate bags. Like with any technical outerwear, you want the layers close to your body to stay as dry as possible in all climates, but that only happens with optimized Thermal Transmittance. This article from our INSIGHTS blog has additional details on the physics behind plate carrier thermoregulation: www.qoreperformance.com/en-gb/blogs/cbrne_hazmat/the-methods-of-heat-transfer-the-science-of-ppe-cooling-heating We hope this helps, but please let us know if you have any additional questions.

Cooling, and thermoregulation are mission critical physiological functions for the human body and especially for athletic performance, regardless of what you put on it. Our Best Plate Carriers of 2024 and 2023 videos have more details on this topic as does our INSIGHTS blog: www.qoreperformance.com/blogs/cbrne_hazmat/the-methods-of-heat-transfer-the-science-of-ppe-cooling-heating www.qoreperformance.com/blogs/military-insights/plate-carrier-reviews?_pos=1&_sid=29802a27e&_ss=r

They new war fighter cumber can use any quick release system, but comes with Velcro as a base. Also it's hands down the best cumber I run and the feed back input I put in as part of the test team was responded to with the release of the adapter panel for the older generation k-19s.

You can add any other cummber to the K zero. Think MARK THINK

ICEPLATE® and ICEVENTS® have been in combat since 2017 and 2018, respectively, with both US and NATO conventional and SOF units. ICEPLATE EXO® has been in combat since shortly after launch also. Photos of all can be see on both our IG feed and throughout our website. That said, this video is merely a technical breakdown of the subject plate carrier. As noted in the video, we do not share opinions or anything qualitative or subjective.

At that qore keeps putting their products number 1 on every chart they made lol I understand it’s their company but realistically no I know absolutely no one who uses qore or even ever talked about qore maybe like once but that was it really

If you read the testing methodology and the format disclosure in the videos, you’ll see we don’t actually “put” anything anywhere. Those tables and rankings are merely the result of empirical testing. They are not the result of anyone’s opinion for this specific reason. Facts are facts.

​@@QorePerformanceUSAthey really don't seem to actually watch the vid, do they

That appears to be the case…

It’s padded to the nines and definitely more comfortable than a jpc

Another not so shocking bias review by qore

@@Nach0s187 In what way is this bias lmao. It literally gives you the exact steps they followed

@@moorusfaan5464they historically shit on agilite like no other brand and always rank their own gear top which defeats the point 😂

@@Nach0s187 Good, Agilites carriers are bad. Knockoff QDs, Single stitching, terrible NIR performance, Bulky as hell, lied about use by SF. They are bad carriers

@@moorusfaan5464where did you hear this? Looking to get my first plate carrier n was looking towards agilite

We have all of the configurations and corresponding weights listed out in our INSIGHTS blog article: www.qoreperformance.com/blogs/military-insights/the-best-plate-carriers-of-2024?_pos=1&_psq=best-plate-carriers&_ss=e&_v=1.0 However, we’d be happy to host a KZfaq Live where we weigh the carriers during the segment if you would like us to?

​@@QorePerformanceUSA the mere fact that you are 50% off between the same JPC set up between reviewers, the seller and even knock off clones (all of which are +- 1-2 oz) already speaks louder than any live you could do, unless the live includes going to a random shop, getting a random jpc off the rack and without cuts buying a scale at walmart. And the fact that similar differences (although not as drastic) are throughout the list including the Kzero for which you use a 11% heavier weight than in any review, shop, or even a knockoff really loses credibility to me, specially when your own product is 3oz lighter than some reviews found out. (15% difference) For any kind of scientific testing a scale should not have more than a couple percentage points of error over its whole operating range. As its manual testing i can forgive if all measurements are one or 2 oz out. But why are the measurements all towards lighter for the top products specially your own, but then products get heavier as the list goes on? I honestly feel conflicted because i like you guys, i do find interesting to see how much water soaks and relative standings against other PCs but the scientific tests themselves and conclusions seem odd considering these points. Many cite you guys for why not to buy the K0, but whats really the difference if its a couple oz and when your weights seem off anyways? May as well as go with each company's weight as a 'best case' and expect 2-3 extra oz

There are a few key elements here to consider: 1. Manufacturing variability 2. Exact product configurations 3. Methods used by other sources (some are more accurate than others) We’d recommend watching each of the PC-specific videos we’ve done to see the specific configurations in that video. The HSP Thorax is a great example: we only tested the Chicken Strap variant, but the results will be totally different if you use one of their other cummerbund offerings. This also applies to our own ICEPLATE EXO® as the weights are different if you compare our Gen 1 with Aspetto Clips to our Gen 2 with either Side Strap or MOLLE Cummerbund (we actually used the MOLLE Cummerbund for the 16 ounce weight to make sure we used the heaviest version of ICEPLATE EXO® Gen 2). We also address the discrepancy between our findings and the OEM website data. The procurement sources and B2B relationships are also disclosed. If you change your mind about the Live, let us know. We’d be happy to do it.
