How to Sew Adhesive Strips onto your Plate Carrier and IceVents® Pontoons to install IceVents® Body Armor Ventilation Pontoons

First, place the adhesive loop strips toward the edge of the inside panel of your plate carrier so that when IceVents® are installed, the edge of the IceVents® are at the edge of the plate carrier to allow air to flow through the IceVents®. The lines in the picture below indicate the sewing lines:

Here is an image showing where the stitch lines would be with the IceVents® installed. Stitch the adhesive loop strips to the plate carrier. Do not sew the adhesive loop strips to the IceVents®. The image below is for demonstration/reference purposes only.
