[ OVERVIEW ]
Plate Carrier hydration and body armor thermoregulation for elite professionals in austere, no-fail environments.
Pairing ICEPLATE® Curve with IMS Pro Gen 3 (ICEPLATE MOLLE Sleeve Pro) is a plate carrier hydration and body armor cooling/heating game changer. Advancing our vision for Building A Superhuman Future, IMS Pro Gen 3 Combo harnesses the full power of the water you carry on duty: freeze for cooling, hot water for heating, all-climate hydration. Worn on the inside or outside of your plate carrier, ICEPLATE® MOLLE Sleeve Pro Gen 3 mounts securely to your plate carrier using any combination of MOLLE and/or Velcro Hook or Loop. ICEPLATE MOLLE Sleeve Pro Gen 3 features laser-cut MOLLE on both faces in addition to Velcro brand hook tape on one face and Velcro brand loop tape on the other face for universal compatibility with any plate carrier MOLLE and/or hook or loop field. ICEPLATE® Curve is a human booster rocket: designed to put you into orbit with a full tank of gas, not necessarily to last the entire mission. Once your ICEPLATE® Curve is exhausted, our "Hydration Magazine" concept makes swapping out for a fully charged ICEPLATE® Curve is as simple as it sounds.
ICECAP Update 08AUG 2024: effective immediately, all ICEPLATE® Curve Drinkable and Standalone orders will ship with ICECAPS that do not have the gray shroud on the white female QD shown in photography and videos. We are depleting our inventory of the current generation ICECAP to replace it with the all-new ICECAP Gen 3 in the coming months. As soon as ICECAP Gen 3 is released, all ICEPLATE® Curve Drinkable and Standalone customers will receive a code for a FREE ICECAP Gen 3 to replace their white Q/D parts.

The Case for a Plate Carrier Hydration Pack
Plate carrier hydration packs are a transformative addition to your tactical gear, whether you're engaged in intensive training, high-stake operations, or outdoor adventures. They introduce a level of convenience and performance that makes them indispensable in scenarios where endurance matters the most.
The main advantage of a MOLLE hydration pack is its enhanced hydration experience. With an easy access drinking tube, the IMS Pro Gen 3 provides much more convenient hydration when compared to your standard water bottle. Further, a hydration bladder is going to hold much more water, meaning you stay hydrated longer.
These tactical hydration packs are designed to integrate seamlessly into your existing gear setup. With their modular design, you can customize the hydration system to suit your specific needs, be it long-distance treks, arduous hikes, or complex tactical operations.

Why Choose the IMS Pro Gen 3 Combo?
So, you've decided that a plate carrier hydration pack is the right choice for you, but now you need to decide which one to choose. We might be a bit biased, but the IMS Pro Gen 3 Combo is the ultimate solution.
Versatility: For starters, the IMS Pro Gen 3 is built to fully integrate with ICEPLATE® Curve, the world's most revolutionary water bladder. This means that this is the best hydration carrier to take advantage of the cooling/heating/hydration capabilities of ICEPLATE®.
The IMS Pro can also hold any Medium ESAPI armor plate for protective versatility.
Superior Design: We designed the IMS Pro Gen 3 to make life easier for you in the field, which is reflected by its features:
- Universal 6x4 MOLLE and/or hook and loop Velcro field compatibility
- Built at our HQ in Knoxville, TN, USA from USMCA compliant laminate for an incredibly durable construction.
- Ultralight, with the IMS Pro Gen 3 sleeve weighing just 0.3 Ibs or 4.8 oz.
- Conformal design geometry with ICEPLATE® Curve allows you to finally “sit flat” for mounted/vehicle operations
Durability: Made from Squadron laminate, the IMS Pro Gen 3 is meant to handle the harshest conditions. In the field, a burst water bladder or ripped hydration pack can be a complete disaster. Worrying about a situation like this takes your mind off the mission at hand, so rest easy knowing you're in good hands with the IMS Pro Gen 3.
