Sick af. I love the catamaran because it allows you to use Qore’s vented padding, and/or with an IMS Pro you can utilize the Ice plate! Which you can run with padding if you want! Which is how I personally run it. If you want unparalleled comfort and airflow on any plate carrier this is what you want!

Comfortable

Adds comfort to TNC/Safariland combo.

for what it is

Well for what it is its great, down side i have with it is i wish there was an option during purchase for LEFT OR RIGHT, I'm using it in a slick carrier for under a chest rig and i want the option to have a T junction for being able to connect to both front and back at the same time drinking out of both. with these Two things alone id be bumping up to a 5 star rating with no problems

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave an honest review of your ICEPLATE® Curve experience. We used to make Right Exit ICEPLATE® Curves, but there was almost no demand for them, so they were discontinued back in 2023.

We hope this helps, but please let us know if you have any additional questions.

Keep working

We outfitted our warehouse staff with ice plates and it has been a solid tool to keep working in the summer heat and and humidity. Tennessee Heat is unforgiving this product is a game changer.

Great item, easy storage. The bottom is easy to drink from and has a steady flow rate with
No leaking. I run the bottle in the right rear wing of my carrier and it fills the space quite nicely.

100% Required Kit

Do my best to keep this short.
I’ve used multiple types of vest stand offs over the years. And sadly they all end up the same way, adding bulk and not adding enough ventilation.
But that changed with Qore. Doubt I’m remembered but first came across Qore from a training class a while back in NJ.
Started off with some of their other products but with the crazy heat and more importantly humidity I needed something more then the ventilation my issued carrier could handle.
The install was straight forward, i opted not to use the shoulder pads as that’s not really an area I needed more ventilation or padding.
But on back to back 90 degree days with high humidity, before it my shirt would be soaked and gross.
Now however, I can feel the heat and at worst some moisture but it never gets soaked. I’ll be pouring sweat but the ventilation pontoons are doing their job and letting it evaporate / keep me cool under my carrier.
It’s a lot of money but if you're spending all day in a carrier and you have to be in the heat. This is money well spent all day long. Don’t hesitate.

Is good. Buy.

Great Thermal regulation

Great for long weighted walks/runs in the Miami heat, lasted around 2-3 hours but the cold water to drink helps immensely.

Can't wait to use it in the National Guard so I don't have to suffer from the humidity and sun, I'd recommend it to my peers so they too don't have to suffer and increase our sustainability.
