Vest accessories

Panels, adapters, straps and components to complete or modify plate carriers, chest rigs and vests.

What they are for

A loadout rarely comes complete. The accessories in this section address the issues that arise from using it: a front panel that adds MOLLE surface where the carrier has little, a back panel that turns the rear into a cargo area, padded shoulder straps that make a previously unsustainable load manageable.

There are also components that change the way it is worn: quick-release buckles to shed the loadout in a single motion, straps and adjustments to fit it to the wearer's build, adapters to attach a pack or a chest rig to the carrier.

Compatibility must be verified on a case-by-case basis: modular systems from the same manufacturer integrate with each other, while cross-brand attachment works only where both use standard MOLLE webbing.
