"Does IcePlate work with my (insert plate carrier make/model here) plate carrier?" This is one of the most frequently asked questions we get here at Qore Performance. We consolidated this information into a single living (continuously updated) resource to help answer this question for the entire IcePlate Community. This IcePlate/Plate Carrier Compatibility Chart is a community asset. The more people who contribute their knowledge/experience, the more valuable it becomes to the IcePlate Community.

This is the very essence of #StayFrosty: "don’t...
If you are reading this article, you know that IcePlate has expanded well beyond the exclusive domain of military/warfighter use.

We don't know which aircraft have been retrofitted with new overhead bins such as Boeing Space Bins or the Airbus Airspace XL Bins and which airframes still sport the old, smaller bin designs. This creates a challenge for us when we’re...
This week I had the opportunity to sit down with Shawn Walchef and Derek Marso as a guest on their Behind The Smoke podcast in San Diego, CA. Listen to the episode below to learn how Otter Pops, manhunts, the Army and chicken sandwiches started a revolution in body armor and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) cooling/heating:
